Test fit your servos in the wing to make sure
that you won’t encounter any clearance issues.
}}}}
Test all new servos before using them in any
project to ensure there are no production
defects; center your servos and attach the
control arms.

Hold the servo mounting posts against your
servos and drill pilot holes in them using the
servo mounting holes as guides for the location
of the holes. Use a hand drill to avoid splitting
the wood and make sure that you use a bit that
is only slightly smaller in diameter than your
servo mounting screws.
}}}}
Tip, when drilling the pilot holes for the servos
in the mounting posts drill then in such a way
that you will be able to mount the servos flush
to the servo covers. This will allow for maximum
clearance for the servos inside the thin wing.
}}}}
Once the holes have been drilled reinforce the
posts with a few drops of thin CA adhesive.

hardware supplied with your servos.

Use Epoxy Adhesive to bond the servo mounting
posts to the servo covers. When bonding the
posts, make sure that the servo arm is located
in the center of the slot and ensure there will be
no clearance issues when mounting the servos
to the wing.
