The illustration shows the HoTT receiver installed above the rudder servo using
Velcro tape (32). Route the receiver aerials through the fuselage opening above the
speed controller. We recommend the following receiver channel assignment:
Connect the speed controller to receiver socket I, the left aileron servo to socket II,
the elevator servo to socket III, the rudder to socket IV, the right-hand aileron servo to
socket V. Coil up the servo leads next to the receiver, so that they cannot obstruct
the servo output arms when they move. Connect the 100 mm servo extension leads
to sockets II and V.
Note: if the model is fitted with rudder and elevator controls only, the rudder servo
should be connected to socket II.
The receiving system is switched on by connecting the G3.5 plugs and sockets, as
shown in the photo. Bind the receiver to the transmitter using the procedure outlined
in the manual supplied with your RC system. Check the direction of motor rotation: if
the propeller spins clockwise when viewed from the tail, disconnect the push-button
(bottom of picture) from the speed controller.
Installing the wing
Push the right-hand wing panel into the side of the fuselage, then slide the CFRP
spar into place, followed by the left-hand wing panel. Tip: squeeze together the pro-
jecting lugs at the root of the left-hand wing panel, as this makes it easier to engage
the wing retainer system.
Slip the servo leads through the appropriate channel in the left-hand fuselage side (2)
as shown in the picture; this is easier if you use a pair of tweezers or small pliers.
Checking the control surfaces
The stick mode at the transmitter should be set as shown in the photograph: throttle
(motor speed) and direction (aileron) on the right-hand stick. Stick back (towards you)
equates to motor off; stick forward means full power. Elevator control should be on
the left-hand stick: pulling the stick back deflects the elevator up; pushing it away
from you produces down-elevator.
The rudder is operated by moving the left-hand stick left and right. If any function
works the wrong way round, use your transmitter’s servo reverse facility to correct
that channel. If you want maximum possible control surface travels, connect the
pushrods to the innermost holes in the control surface horns (15). If you are a relative
beginner to model flying, we recommend that you connect the pushrods to the outer
holes.
