Back to the servo installation.
Center the servo with your radio and install
a straight servo arm.
Use sandpaper to clean the inside of the
servo cutout. Place the servo in the cut-out
and check the servo arm clearance above
the wing surface. Ensure that the arm is
long enough to allow a pushrod to be
connected and to move freely.
Push the servo wire through the servo
channel (ensure the cable is long enough).
Next, glue the servo in place with 5 minute
epoxy. You can either glue on the servo
directly with its casing or wrap the servo in
tape or shrink tube before gluing it.
Roughen the servo surface with sandpaper
before applying glue.
Tape the servo cable ends to the top surface of the wing to avoid them from falling back
into the servo wire channel.
