E-flite Habu 32 EDF ARF Assembly Manual
4. (Optional Retracts) Prepare the retract harness
by securing a 6-inch (152mm) and 9-inch
(228mm) extension to the retract harness using
string or a commercially available connector. This
will plug into the retract channel of the receiver.
5. Plug the leads for the elevator, ailerons, flaps,
and speed control into the receiver at this time. Plug
a Y-harness into the rudder channel of the receiver
for the rudder and steering. All the extensions
should now be connected to the receiver. Use the
following to connect the extensions to the receiver:

6. Use scissors to cut a small piece of hook and
loop tape. Use the tape to secure the receiver
in the fuselage.
7. Use scissors to cut a small piece of hook and
loop tape. Use the tape to secure the remote
receiver in the fuselage.
8. Route the lead for the retracts through the
fuselage. Use a pair of hemostats to hold the
leads from the motor while you are plugging the
leads from the controller into them. Routing it
through the tray the nose gear is mounted to and
along the bottom of the fuselage will keep the
installation clean. Secure any loose leads with tie
wraps (not included).
Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to remove
the nose gear cover so there is better
access for routing the retract leads.
