INSTALLING THE SWITCH

1.    The  switch  should  be  mounted  on  the  fuselage 

side,  opposite  the  muffler,  close  enough  to  the 

receiver so the lead will reach. Use the face plate 

of  the  switch  cut  out  and  locate  the  mounting 

holes.

2.    Cut  out  the  switch  hole  using  a  modeling  knife. 

Use a 2mm drill bit and drill out the two mounting 

holes through the fuselage side.

3. Secure the switch in place using the two machine 

screws provided with the radio system.

INSTALLING THE RECEIVER AND BATTERY

1.  Plug the servo leads and the switch lead into the 

receiver.  You  may  want  to  plug  an  aileron 

extension into the receiver to make plugging in the 

aileron  servo  lead  easier  when  you  are  installing 

the  wing.  Plug  the  battery  pack  lead  into  the 

switch.

2. Wrap the receiver and battery pack in the protective 

foam to protect them from vibration. Use a rubber 

band or masking tape to hold the foam in place.

   Do not permanently secure the receiver and battery 

until after balancing the model.
