1. Cut away the covering from the servo bay in
the bottom of the bottom right wing panel. Turn the wing over
and cut the covering from the hole in the top of the wing at
the wing root.
❏ ❏ ❏ ❏
2. Inside the servo bay a string is taped.
Carefully remove the string from the servo bay and tape it to
the outside of the wing to prevent it from dropping back into
the wing. The other end of the string is taped to the root rib.
Remove the tape, thread the string through the small holes
you cut the covering from on the bottom of the wing, and
tape the string to the wing.

3. Install a 12" [305mm] servo extension onto
the servo lead. Secure the extension to the lead with tape, a
piece of shrink tube or some other method to keep them
from coming unplugged.
❏ ❏ ❏ ❏
4. Tie the string to the servo extension. Pull the
string and the servo lead through the wing. Untie the string
from the lead and insert the lead through the small hole you
cut the covering from. Tape the lead to the wing to prevent it
from falling back into the wing.

5. Install the servo into the servo opening. Drill
through the servo mounting holes with a 1/16" [1.6mm] drill
bit. Remove the servo from the servo opening. Install and
then remove a servo mounting screw into each of the holes
you have drilled. Apply a drop of thin CA into the holes to
harden the threads. Once the glue has cured, install the
servo into the servo opening using the hardware included
with your servo. Center the servo then install a servo arm as
shown. The arm should be pointing towards the wing tip.

6. Place a nylon control horn in line with the
outer hole in the servo arm. When positioned properly, the
control horn will rest on a hardwood plate in the aileron.
Mark the location of the mounting holes onto the aileron.
Drill a 3/32" [2.4mm] hole on the marks, drilling through the
plywood plate
but not through the top of the aileron. Insert
and remove a #4 x 1/2" [13mm] screw into each of the holes.
Apply a couple drops of thin CA into the holes to harden the
threads. Once the glue has hardened attach the horn to the
aileron with four #4 x 1/2" [13mm] screws.
