Drawing #8b

 

 

 

 


 

The motor is not part of the kit.  :D

   

Notice the size of the Plettenberg HP 370/40/A2 Heli.   You will have to cut out a hole in your canopy.

 

This motor is a work of art.

   

NOTE:  Make sure you ask for the correct motor plate for your motor.  Mine came with the Actro plate (left).  I had to order the Plettenberg plate (right).

   

NOTE:  Mine did not come with M4 screws.  Got mine from Home Depot (M4 x 8).  Use loctite.

 

Notice the raised edge around the motor's shaft as I mentioned previously.  This sits perfectly with part 728. (Plettenberg motor plate)

   

NOTE:  Mine came with a 16T motor pinion.  If you require a lower head speed, a 12T and 13T pinion are available from Minicopter.  PN #762 (12Z) & #763 (13Z).

   

The 12T, left, and 13T, right, pinions from Minicopter.

 

NOTE:  I settled down with a 14T pinion.

   

NOTE:  Do not tighten the motor plate yet.  You will have to adjust this when you install the belt.
