N7 Build book
« on: February 11, 2014, 05:45:50 PM »
Hi everyone,

As a contribution to the Synergy fans, I have put together a 'Build Book' covering the construction steps I have done while building my N7.

Some of the steps and process I have documented are my own choice, meaning this is how I do it, with the understanding that others may have better ideas and/or simply do not see any advantage of doing so & this is OK with me !

It is my understanding that my N7 was from the an early batch and the little snags I have come across are probably not present in later runs - but that being said it is a great build and I am anxious to have the machine flying in the coming weeks (weather).

The file that I have linked (too large to post in the Synergy forum) is in PDF format and you can redistribute without any problem (at least without changing the content/removing the credits !) but Matt has access to the 'source' file - and he can do whatever he wants with it  ;D

thanks and enjoy, Mario

Posted version 1.3 which adds some parts numbers & links to the parts store on the pictures.

This should be the 'last' version (!) - but I might add some maintenance notes once I get some mileage on the machine.

Hi Mario,

On page 12 and 13 of your build book you were indicating on the fan hub and the clutch hub.  How did you secure the motor for these steps to maintain measurement integrity between adjustments?

R.O.G.
