Wire tail drive installation tips:

I then install the channel in the fuse
with drive shaft excess sticking out the rear. Once plugged into the tail
output on the mechs I make sure the drive shaft
wire is pushed into the output shaft on the mechs as far as it
can go. I then push on the tail box onto the
shaft as as as it will go and measure the distance between the
bulkhead and tail box mounting flange and then
adding one additional mm to be cut off that length. This will
allow the drive shaft to maintain a 1 mm gap
at the tail output end on the mechs. Also a flat is ground into final
cut-off shaft ( one side only) Bolt tail box
in place "Dry"(no locktite) and see below...
...
Here you can see the gap. At this point
the drive shaft is "hanging" with a curve. This is too much so we
bring
the channel up to it but still leave a slight
continuos curve in it , see below...
note: there must not be any side to side curve,
just up and down.
...
...
The excess
cutoff piece for channel is used to create lateral support, and here you
see the slight curve as the
middle of of the shaft rests at the bottom of
the channel and the tail end is also at the top of the channel forming
one counties gentle curve. This will produce
a very smooth tail! Once all is good, lube shaft with light teflon oil
and final assemble.
