Cut four pieces of paper 1/2 inch (12mm) wide. Tape the
paper to the sides of the fuselage to indicate the location
of the sub-fi rewall.
COWLING AND SPINNER INSTALLATION
4.
Remove the propeller and cowling from the fuselage.
Thread a cowl mounting screw into each of the holes.
Remove the screws, then apply a small amount of thin
CA to harden the theads made in the mounting blocks.
Place the cowl back on the fuselage and secure it using
the screws listed. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to tighten
the screws.
Important Information About Your Propeller
Î
Always ensure the propeller is balanced
before installing it onto the shaft. An unbalanced
propeller may cause poor flight characteristics.
Î
If it is necessary to enlarge the hole in the propeller,
make sure to check the balance of the propeller afterwards.
3.
Use a pin vise and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill
four holes in the cowl using the paper templates as a
guide. Make sure to drill into the 1/4-inch (6mm) wide
sub-fi rewall.
2.
Slide the cowling on the fuselage, making sure the
paper markers are on the outside of the cowl. With the
spinner backplate and propeller attached to the motor
shaft, position the cowl so there is a 3/32-inch (2mm)
gap between the backplate and cowl. Also make sure the
cowl is aligned with the backplate and trim scheme. Use
low-tack tape to keep the cowl attached to the fuselage
for the following steps.

Connect the rudder and elevator servo leads to the
receiver. Connect an 18-inch (460mm) lead for the fl aps
and ailerons to the receiver.
Î
Longer 24-inch (600mm) leads can be used for
the ailerons and flaps and then routed underneath the
cockpit floor for a clean installation of the radio system.
3.
Mount the receiver and receiver battery in the fuselage
using hook and loop tape (not included). Route the servo
leads neatly underneath the radio tray.
1.
Use a hobby knife with a #11 blade to remove the
material from the aft edge of the receiver and battery
cover. Drill two holes for the switch mounting screws
using a 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit. Mount the switch to the
cover using the hardware included with the switch.
Î
Use the switch plate as a template when
preparing the cover for the switch.
