Select from the spacers provided in the kit the combination that locates the front of the motor
case flush with the front of the fuselage. Make sure the propeller has plenty of clearance. Glue
the spacers and motor mount in place with foam glue. We find it useful to mount the propeller
to aid in getting the motor mounted square in the fuselage. Once set on the spacers, remove
the motor from the firewall and glue the spacers and firewall to the fuselage.
For best 3D performance we want a "Zero Zero" motor angle setup. We want the motor in line
with the centerline of the fuselage - no down thrust, and no right thrust. This helps to insure
that upright and inverted performance are as similar as possible, without needing trim change
adjustments.

Locate the ESC and receiver near the nose and fix in place with Velcro. Make sure you locate them
so the plugs are accessible.
BUILDER'S TIP: to work on the underside of the plane after the upper vertical fuselage is installed, set
the plane on a pair of same-size boxes.
