2.
Center the CA hinges in their slots. Attach the ailerons to the wing panels with thin CA adhesive.
3.
Using your radio or a servo tester, center the
aileron servos. Test-fit your aileron servos and
the two wooden servo mounting pedestals to
each servo-hatch cover.
4.
Use epoxy to attach the pedestals to the servo
hatch covers. Use the hardware provided with
your servos to mount the aileron servos on the
pedestals.
5.
Locate the servo bays in the bottoms of the upper
wing panels. If necessary, cut and remove the
Mylar covering the servo hatches. As shown at
the right, use pliers to break loose and lift out any
transport bracing material inside the servo
hatches, if necessary. Test-fit the servo-hatch
covers with their servo-arm slots toward the
wingtips and toward the leading edges.
6.
Attach a 12-inch extension to each aileron servo.
(NOTE: We recommend using optional Maxford USA servo-extension
safety clips to secure all servo/extension/Y-cable connections.)
7.
Use a length of coat hanger or heavier wire to guide the aileron exten-
sions from each servo bay out through the root rib of each wing panel.
8.
Secure the aileron servo hatch covers to the wing panels with
5/16
-inch
wood screws.
9.
Test-fit the aileron control horns directly behind and in line with your
aileron-servo’s output arms.
10.
Attach the aileron control horns to the ailerons as pictured below.
11.
Hold the ailerons aligned with their wing panels with masking tape.
12.
Attach the aileron
pushrods between
the aileron control
horns and aileron
servos with the
supplied pushrods.
13.
Remove the masking tape from
the ailerons and wing panels.
14.
If you wish to use the lower wing’s ailerons, repeat steps 1 through 13 for the lower wing,
substituting ‘lower’ for ‘upper’ as required.
(NOTE: Each of the LOWER wing panels has 2 small pieces of wood under the Mylar
for attachment of wing skids at
1/2
-inch and 5
1/2
-inches behind the leading edge
and at approx. 23
5/8
-inches from their root ribs.)
