a good time to install and adjust the nose 

gear steering cable. Note that a ball link is 

used on the steering tiller arm.

Locate and prepare the five electric mo

and  MMBP.  Use  Epoxy  to  or  PU  to  as

semble these components. Note that the 

bolt pattern on the motor mount bolt plate 

(MMBP) is the same as that used on the 

Hobby Lobby 40 sized glow motor mount 

catalog  #  MT11022.  Use  the  pinning 

system to assemble the laminated parts 

MMA and MMB. Install MMH and MMV in 

the bolt plate MMBP. Next glue the MMA/

MMB assembly to MMH and MMV.

Install the motor mount with four #6-32 X 

3/8” socket head bolts and flat washers.

This concludes the basic fuselage assembly. You will want to install all radio gear and control 

linkages before covering the model. Once covered you will not have access to some parts of the 

model.
