3 Align the screw holes in silencer A with those in

silencer B, while making sure that the gaskets

remain in position. Tighten a 2 x 8mm screw into

each of the holes.

4 Prepare the exhaust manifold, the manifold

gasket and the four 3 x 8mm screws.

5 Place the gasket onto the end of the manifold, as

shown, then place a 3 x 8mm screw into each of the

four holes.

6 Place the manifold up against the opening in the

silencer and tighten the screws into the holes to join

the parts.

7 Use the cross wrench to tighten the pressure

port into the hole in the side of the manifold.

Exhaust tailpipes and gaskets

Parts supplied:

A Exhaust pipes

B Short tailpipes

C Long tailpipes

D Self-locking nuts M3

E 3 x 15mm screws

F Exhaust pipe gaskets

G Tailpipe gaskets

The parts supplied include the four tailpipes, plus the exhaust pipes that connect them to the silencer

you assembled in the previous stage. Like any exhaust system, that of your Huracán has gaskets that

seal the joints between its different sections.

1 As well as the parts you received with this

stage, you will need a Phillips screwdriver and a

cross wrench.

Place the four tailpipe gaskets onto the inner

ends of the tailpipes, as shown.

ASSEMBLY GUIDE – STAGE 39

3 Push a long and a short

tailpipe into the holes in one set

of exhaust pipes. Look at the

photos for the following steps to

see how to position them.

4 Place a 3 x 15mm screw into

the hole in the exhaust pipes, then

use the cross wrench to tighten

an M3 nut onto the end of it.

Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for the

other tailpipes and exhaust pipes.

5 Place the two exhaust pipe

assemblies next to the silencer

from Stage 38, along with the two

exhaust pipe gaskets.

6 Remove the six screws

holding the two halves of the

silencer together, and place the

exhaust pipes into the gaps at the

side, as indicated.

Place the two halves of

the silencer back together and

secure with the screws. The gap

between the two halves of the

silencer should appear as in the

photo: if it is wider, it means the

gaskets aren’t positioned

properly. In that case, separate

the two halves, adjust the

gaskets and then combine the

two halves again.

8 This is how the exhaust

system of your Huracán should

look at the end of this stage.

Brake disc and pads

The parts supplied with this stage are part of your

RC Huracán’s brake system. Please note that when

the mechanism is assembled, the brake pads

should be free to move a little on their mounting

screws in order for the system to work properly.

C 3 x 12mm screws

D Locking pin

E Brake disc

ASSEMBLY GUIDE – STAGE 40

1 You will also need the right rear suspension

mount from Stage 23 and the driveshaft and gear

assembly from Stage 33.

2 Before you begin, ready a pair of pliers, a small

screwdriver and a 2.5mm hex key.

3 Pass the two 3 x 12mm screws

through the holes of the brake

pads, positioning the pads with

their fibre-covered sides facing

inwards, as shown.

4 Insert the screws into the

holes in the rear suspension

mount, and begin tightening

them. Place the disc between the

pads, as shown, to help you judge

how much space to leave between

the pads (see Step 5).

5 When you tighten the screws,

ensure that a small space remains

between the heads of the screws

and the pads (arrowed).

6 Remove the E-rings located at

the ends of the driveshaft, and

then remove the rest of the parts

from it.

7 Pass the driveshaft through

the suspension mount and the

brake disc, as shown in the

picture. Next, place the brake disc

support over the shaft and into

the hole in the centre of the disc.

Then place the locking pin into

the recess in the support and

through the hole in the driveshaft

to hold it in place.

8 Reassemble the parts of the

driveshaft and gear assembly, and

lock them into place once more

with the E-rings.

the centre of the shaft.

GHI

You will need all the shock absorber components

the centre of the shaft.

3 Fit the piston onto the grooved

end of the shaft. Push it down

firmly, so that it butts up against

the E-ring that you fitted in the

previous step.

4 Fit the second E-ring into the

groove at the end of the shaft, on

the other side of the piston.

5 Hold the shock absorber body

so that the end facing you is the

one with the smaller diameter

hole, and fit the red washer into it.

6 Fit the black spacer on top of

the washer, as shown.

7 Screw the lower end cap of the

shock absorber onto the body.

Screw it on as far as it will go, but

don’t apply too much force

because that could damage it.

8 Hold the shaft by the piston,

and lubricate the threaded end

with a few drops of shock

absorber oil.

9 Insert the threaded end of the

shaft into the large diameter hole

of the shock absorber body. Push

it through the washer until the

threaded part emerges from it, as

shown.

10 Using your strip of card or

cloth to protect the shaft, grip it

with pliers and screw the ball end

onto the threaded part of it, using

your fingertips to tighten it.

11 With a modelling clamp, hold

the body of the shock absorber

vertical. Fill the inside with the oil

supplied, up to within about 1mm

of the top.

12 Keep the shock absorber

vertical for a few minutes, to

allow any air bubbles to rise to

the surface. To encourage the

removal of any bubbles, carefully

move the shaft up and down

a few times.

13 To assemble the upper cap,

take the upper end cap, the shock

absorber top and the diaphragm.

Push the ring of the shock

absorber top through the upper

end cap.

14 Insert the rubber diaphragm

into the upper end cap, with its

concave face up against the base

of the shock absorber top and the

convex face remaining in view.

15 Now screw the upper end cap

onto the upper end of the shock

absorber body. Tighten it just

enough for the diaphragm to

make the necessary seal so that

there is no loss of oil.

16 Screw the adjusting nut

(arrowed) onto the body of the

shock absorber. Position the nut

as shown.

17 Fit the spring over the shock

absorber shaft and up against the

adjusting nut.

18 Fit the spring holder between

the end of the spring and the ball

end. The holder will keep the

spring in place.
