Section 2: Aileron Servo Installation
9
Step 4
Place the aileron servo between the mounting blocks and
use a felt-tipped pen to mark the location of the four
servo mounting screws. Note that the servo must not
touch the hatch in order to isolate engine vibration.
Note
: Before mounting the servo, it is
suggested to electronically center the servo
using the transmitter, then install the servo
arm to avoid having to remove the servo and
center the arm later. It may be necessary to
slightly trim one of the servo mounting
blocks to clear the servo wire.
Step 5
Remove the servo and use a 1/16" drill bit to predrill
the holes for the servo mounting screws marked in the
previous step. Use the screws supplied with the servo
to mount it to the servo mounting blocks.
Step 6
Connect a 24" Servo Lead extension (JRPA212) to the
servo lead. Secure the connectors by tying them in a knot
using dental floss (as shown) or by using a commercially
available connector clamp to prevent the servo leads from
becoming disconnected.
Note
: It is always a good idea to secure the
servo connector and servo extension together
to prevent the wires from becoming unplugged
inside the wing.
