Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) - Brake Leverages.
Herewith is N. Sch.4545, diagram of brake leverages with the tangent screw adjustment, semi-servo system of foot brake, and with the horizontal hand brake lever.
This is nearly as fitted to Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) 3, but the hand brake leverage as shewn here is not satisfactory and should be altered.
N.Sch.4545 herewith.
