innermost hole of the servo arm and outer hole 
of the control horn.

4.   On both flaps, carefully cut a wedge of foam 

from the flap hinge near the aileron hinge (see 
illustration).

5.   On both flaps, carefully cut a small amount 

of foam at the flap and wing root so the flap

servo wires in the wing channel (

).

8.   Install the flap servo connectors in the holes at 

the wing root on each side.

9.   Place tape over the wing channel (

D

).

10.  Cut a small amount of tape at each flap servo 

arm to let the servo arms move freely.

11.  Attach the servo connectors to the correct 

receiver channels or Y-harnesses.

12.  Proceed to wing installation instructions or 

landing gear installation instructions.

NOTICE:

 Ensure the wires are not crushed or 

damaged when the wing is attached to
