Step 1
Wrap the receiver battery and receiver in 1/4" foam. Attach
the receiver and battery to the battery tray using Velcro
straps to secure the receiver. Route the receiver antenna
through the installed antenna tube.
Step 2
Mount the receiver switch in a convenient location in the
side of the fuselage. Plug the rudder and elevator servo
leads into the receiver, as well as the switch harness.
Note
: A piece of plywood has been supplied
to help in mounting the receiver and receiver
battery. The final location of these items can
be located differently to achieve the correct
center of gravity.
Step 3
Mount the throttle servo using the hardware provided with
the servo. Plug the servo into the receiver and attach the
servo arm to the throttle servo.
Step 4
Move the servo to the throttle open position using the
radio system. Manually move the throttle arm on the
carburetor to the open position. Mark the pushrod where it
crosses the servo arm. Make a 90-degree bend in the wire
and install it into the servo arm.
Step 5
Check the movement of the throttle to verify there is no
binding at either low or high throttle. If there is, make
the necessary adjustment to eliminate any binding.
Secure the pushrod using a pushrod keeper when all
adjustments are complete.
