freddieboyfly Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Dont want to sound a dummy here but i bought a second hand Airfer Aerox fly evo 100 last year. Had about half a dozen flights all good. Giving it a good check over and i noticed that the right hand active arm (if im sitting in it) extends upwards 2inches or so than the other. Is this meant to be? This is my first low hang point machine. Thanks guys. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapper Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Harness's sometimes set like this to counteract torque turn. Have an evo 100 myself but with a clutch so doesn't need the counteracting (if that makes sense) Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanman Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 The Airfer Aerox has a clutch so is the same as yours. The clutch does not remove torque either. The gearbox will minimally remove a tiny amount of the torque as it changes the rotational direction of the prop relative to the crankshaft so the minimal crankshaft torque slightly offsets the prop torque. On a reduction drive where the rotation is in the same direction these two torques are compounded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
