MIG29 with Thrust Vectoring motor installation.

MIG29 thrust vectoring setup

Motor installation and setup -

In this setup the motor is placed on the elevator which gives it pitch thrust vectoring and great manuverability.

Glue used - 5 min epoxy

Step 1 -

Solder the Gold connectors to the three leads from the motor. **Dont forget to put the shrinks on before you solder them on.

Step 2 -

Glue the control horns to the bottom (Small) motor brace. make sure they are flush with the bottom and the front (facing the nose of the plane) part of the mount. you can tack with super glue but fill in with epoxy.

Step 3 -

Make a enough epoxy for all the pieces you need to glue now (both braces and motor mount).

Step 4 -

Glue the motor mount into place and then glue the top and bottom braces into place. I actullay did this in two staps but this can ba dont in one. put plenty of glue on the connections between all wood plarts.

Step 5 -

Connect the speed controller. I connected it with tape to the side of the model.

**Remember to leave some slack that it can move

Step 6 -

Solder battery lead extension of 12 inches (~30cm) to the speed controller and your battery connectors to the other side.

**once again dont forget the shrinks.

Step 7 -

Connect the motor to the mount and mark the holls to dril. Drill one hole and insert a screw. then mark hte second connect the screw and so on.
