Well I had a problem...
These are as always to be solved, always! The help came from Mick and Jim Reeves this time. Thank you both!!!
Due to no longer getting the parts for the retract servo, they have sold for a long time now, I had a problem.
Jim and Mick have given me a hint to another reduction geared motor. I did order two of these and received them two days ago.
Looked very well made, and it wouldn't be me, screws on the top of the gear box, I had to look inside...
I didn't take all apart due to, too small bits, shafts and gear wheels, I put it all back together.
I needed to know how the gear box was build up. I was happy with what I have seen. A worm gear combination to start with and after that a very solid gear wheel reduction. I knew from the past worm gear do have a lot of friction and it didn't work at the time. It was then that I bought the first M. Reeves servo motor, and that was OK. I think that was in 1989...this was a long time ago...I even think it was the old one...
With the gearbox in my hand, the design could be started how to get it into my Milan fuselage the second one...and I did promise Mick and Jim to keep them posted on the test I was going to do with it as soon I got it. Well this is what I did to have a nice fit in the fuselage.
See first the old gear box from Mick and the new one...
