GSC Mounting on C box - 582

3 posts in this topic

Posted (edited)

Getttg ready to moount a GSC on a Rotax C box.  I see these come with mini torque studs that you locktite in place.

 

That in effect then uses the only threaded holes I have.  I assume the actual mounting is then done with nuts on the back side?

 

Seems that it would be tough to verify torque values given stiction of the nylocs (or is this not a concern)

 

68" 3-blade GSC with 2.62 box.  Plan on starting at 14 degrees unless someone else has good experience with this setup.

Use your torque wrench to see how much torque is required to turn the nyloc nut before it contacts the prop flange then add that value to the final torque.  Do you have the GSC installation instructions?  Lots of cautions noted installing a GSC prop.

I do have the instructions.  A bit more involved than the Ivo I ran on my last bird.
