  Electric or Hand Drill

  (1)  Hook and Loop Material

  Heat-Shrink Tubing

  Heat Gun (for Heat-Shrink Tubing)

  Mount your ESC to the side of the fuselage, using a piece of double-sided 

foam tape (not included).

  If your ESC features an on/off switch, mount it to the fuselage side.

IMPORTANT

  The mounting locations of the ESC, receiver and battery may differ from that shown.  You may need to mount your 

ESC, receiver and battery in slightly different locations, depending on how your model balances.

  Plug the servo and ESC leads into their proper slots in your receiver, then 

mount your receiver to the fuselage floor, using a piece of double-sided foam 

tape (not included).

 Plug a Y-Harness into the aileron slot in your receiver, so that you can 

connect the aileron servo leads when you install the wing.  If you are 
planning on plugging the ailerons separately into your receiver, plug aileron 
servo extension leads into the receiver.

IMPORTANT

  If you don't want to solder the motor wires directly to the ESC motor wires, make sure to use high-quality 

connectors between the motor and the ESC to prevent current loss.

  Slide one wheel onto each axle and secure the wheels into place, using 

one wheel collar and one M3 x 5mm machine screw.

 Tighten the machine screws firmly, then double-check that both wheels 

spin freely.
