INSTALLING THE AILERONs SERVOS
1. Install the rubber grommets and brass eyelets onto
the aileron servo.
2. Using a modeling knife, remove the covering from over
the pre-cut servo arm exit hole on the aileron servo
tray / hatch. This hole will allow the servo arm to pass
through when installing the aileron pushrods.
3. Place the servo into the servo tray. Center the servo
within the tray and drill pilot holes through the block
of wood for each of the four mounting screws
provided with the servo.
4. Using the thread as a guide and using masking
tape, tape the servo lead to the end of the
thread: carefully pull the thread out. When you
have pulled the servo lead out, remove the
masking tape and the servo lead from the
thread.
5. Place the aileron servo tray / hatch into the servo
box on the bottom of the wing and drill pilot
holes through the tray and the servo box for
each of the four mounting screws. Secure the
servo tray in place using the mounting screws
provided .
6. Repeat step # 2 - # 5 to install the second aileron
servo in the opposite wing half.
Make certain the hinges are adequately secured with glue. If
they come loose in flight accidents may result.
Secure nylon hinges with instant glue, being careful
not to glue the wing and airleron together.
Apply instant glue (CA glue, super glue).
Align the center line of main wing with aileron.
