1. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the aileron and
flap servo covers so they can be installed in the
correct direction after they have been removed
from the wing.
2. Remove the flap and aileron servo covers from
the wing. Use a covering iron to seal the covering if
the tape has lifted it from the wing or servo covers.
Set the wing and flap servo cover aside.
3. Prepare the aileron servo by installing the
brass eyelets and rubber grommets in the servo.
Also remove the stock servo horn using a #1
Phillips screwdriver.
4. Apply 2–3 drops of thin CA in each of the
mounting holes for the servo screws. This will
harden the wood and help prevent the screws from
vibrating loose.
5. Mount the aileron servo using the four screws
provided with the servo and a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
