2.INSTALLING THE  FUSELAGE SERVOS

  

1)  

Install the rubber grommets and brass collets 

into the elevator, rudder and throttle servos. Test fit 

the servos into the servo tray. Trim the tray if neces-

sary to fit your servos.

  

2)  

Mount the servo to the tray using the mounting 

screws provided with your radio system.

Pushrod wire

Throttle servo

Rudder servo

Elevator servo

Install one adjustable metal connector through the third 

hole out from the center of one servo arm, enlarge the 

hole in the servo arm using a 2mm drill bit to accommo-

date the servo connector. Remove the excess material 

from the arm.

After installing the adjustable metal connector apply 

a small drop of thin C/A to the bottom nut. This will 

prevent the connector from loosening during flight.

1) 

Slide the fiberglass cowl over the engine and line 

up the back edge of the cowl with the marks you made 

on the fuselage.

  

2) 

While keeping the back edge of the cowl flush 

with  the  marks,  align  the  front  of  the  cowl  with  the 

crankshaft of the engine. The front of the cowl should 

be positioned so the crankshaft is in 

nearly

 the middle 

of the cowl opening. Hold the cowl firmly in place using 

pieces of masking tape.

  

3) 

Slide the cowl back over the engine and secure 

it in place using four wood screws. See picture below. 

   

4) 

Install  the  muffler  and  muffler  extension  onto 

the engine and make the cutout in the cowl for muffler 

clearance.  Connect the fuel and pressure lines to the 

carburetor, muffler and fuel filler valve.

Drill four 2.5mm pilot holes through both the cowl and 

the side edges of the firewall. Using a 3mm drill bit, 

enlarge the four holes in the cowling.

Drill a hole 2.5mm

and secure 3x12mm
