11. Position the servo between the two blocks.
Leave a small gap between the servo and servo
cover so vibrations from the airframe are not
transferred directly into the servo. Use a pencil
to mark the locations for the four servo mounting
screws on the blocks.
12. Use a drill and 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit to
drill the holes for the mounting screws. Use care not
to enlarge the holes any larger than the drill bit.
13. Apply 2–3 drops of thin CA in each hole
drilled. Also saturate the front and rear of the
block using thin CA to harden the block. This will
help keep the block from splitting when the servo
mounting screws are installed.
Do not use a CA accelerator. Using an
accelerator will not allow the CA to soak into
the fibers of the wood, hardening the blocks.
14. Use the screws provided with the servo and a
#1 Phillips screwdriver to attach the servo to the
mounting blocks.
15. Apply 2–3 drops of thin CA in each of the
aileron servo cover mounting holes. This will
harden the surrounding wood, making the screws
more secure when they are installed.
