(3 to 4) Satellite receivers
Required Tools and Adhesives
Double-sided tape

Note: It is best to use 4 satellite receivers as this is
a large model. However, with proper placement of
the satellite receivers, 3 would be adequate. A Flight
Log can help with correct placement of the satellite
receivers. Check the health of the system before first
flight.
1. There are two ways to mount the satellite receivers.
One way is to simply apply a piece of double-sided/
servo tape to the back of the satellite receiver and attach
to the fuselage. See step 3 for the alternative method.
Location of Satellite receiver 1.
Location of Satellite receiver 2 - side of the fuselage
tunnel.
Location of Satellite receiver3 - front of the tank and on
the left vertical side.
Location of Satellite receiver 4 - front of the tank and on
the right vertical side.
2. Attach a piece of masking tape to the back of the
satellite receiver; apply a couple of drops of CA to the
masking tape and stick a piece of hook and loop to the
masking tape. Note that even if the hook and loop is
adhesive-backed, CA helps hold the hook and loop to the
masking tape in high temperatures.
