Before glueing the servos on the covers the connection cables must be soldered onto
the extension cables which have already been pre-fitted into the wings and the
mounting links must be removed from the servos. When doing so ensure that the
correct polarity is applied, i.e. the correct colour-coded cables are soldered together.
As shown in the photo isolate the soldering joints with heat shrinkable tubing which
must be pushed onto the cables before soldering.
Now the servos are glued onto the servo covers; as shown in the photo. The servo
lever must be in the centre of the output fairing and the servo must be about 8 mm
from the edge. The servo cover and the servo casing itself must be well roughened
with sandpaper. Superglue (order no. 5821) can be used as adhesive here. Ensure
that the servo is placed in the correct position at the first attempt at assembly.
Note: When using superglue it is not possible to move the item at a later stage in
order to correct its position.
The push-rods for the ailerons and wing flaps are made from the M2 threaded rods
supplied in the hardware pack and are fitted with a M2 lock nut and a M2 clevis. The
aileron push-rods must be bent so as to measure 40 mm from the mount point on the
servo lever to the clevis pin. For the wing flaps the distance must be about 45 mm.
The exact length can be adjusted after screwing the covers is adjusted by turning the
clevis in or out.
