MJP Lift Kit

[jnnc]

Hello

I received today my new lepton, i order a MJP Lift Kit but i´m having some troubels to install them, can anybody give me some pics or some info to build mine !

I don't have any pics, but the ones on MJP's web site should do.

The lift kit merely adds about 6mm length to the bottom of the carbon side frames just behind the motor. The two little carbon pieces are simply frame extensions. You bolt these to the outside of the frames, then bolt the landing strut mount to those little pieces instead of to the main frame (IIRC, MJP gives you a couple of spacers to use). This gives you the "lift" so your tail rotor has a little more clearance.

I used these, plus the carbon bottom frame from MJP. It stiffens up the bottom of the Lepton frame and also gave me a place to put my Rx battery.

Hope this helps,

Ron

Thanks Rocket Man, but mines don´t have the spacers for the landing gear :( , if you can send me a picture of that I can try to make anything similar.

Just get the Gaui 550 landing gear - lifts the heli and they are stronger

Sorry, guys. My memory must be on the fritz. :oops:

I must have supplied my own spacers. The additional plates leave a slight gap between the landing skid mount and the new lift plates. I slipped a nylon spacer in there on both sides and filled the gap. You could easily just tighten up the bolts and pull the sides into the gear mount, but I thought the frames should remain parallel.
