| - Use WD40 to slide the torque tube into the boom and while you're at it, install a second TT bearing. Not that one isn't enough but two are better.
- When mounting the washout arms to the swasplate, either use a ballreamer before or put the balls in from the inside and only then screw them to the swashplate as the washout arms need to be installed backwards.
- Pay special attention to the frame positioning. They are different and if you mount them wronlgy be prepared to start from scratch again once you realise your mistake.
- use a digital caliper to make the rods exactly like the manual advises. It will pay off later.
- Red is blue and green is red. I.e. JR threadlock has different coding colors. If you use the supplied threadlock then follow the manual. If you use loctite then where the manual shows red, use blue and where the manual shows green, use green or red loctite (I personally use 643 green).
- pay attention to the gear mesh. and don't forget to dial in and balance the fan assembly.
