Installing Motor & ESC

1.

Collect the following parts:

(1) Fuselage

(1) Motor (Not Included)

(1) Electronic Speed Control (Not Included)

(1) Screw for motor installation (Not Included)

Note:

Read the instructions that come with your

motor and speed control for proper wiring.

Your Motor and Speed Control might be dif-

ferent than shown.

6.

Locate the 1/32” x 7” aileron pushrod and

make a 90 degree bend 1/4” long in one end.

Fit it into the outer hole on the top aileron con-

trol horn and retain with the swivel keeper.

7.

Fit the bottom end of the pushrod into the e-z

connector on the bottom wing aileron.

Center both ailerons and tighten the set

screw.

2.

We used the Ultra fly A30-29 brushless motor

which comes with the gear box and prop

adapter. It mounts on a 3/8” square stick

which is supplied with the plane.  The firewall

is set up to accept either the 3/8” square

mount or an outrunner radial mount.

3.

If using the 3/8” stick mount you will need to

remove some wood below it to allow the motor

wires to clear the firewall.
