16...Finally, plug the servos and electronic speed control
into the receiver. Place the receiver in the fuselage beneath
the servos. The electronic speed controller sits on the
bottom of the fuselage in the battery compartment, between
the servos and the firewall. Plug the battery into the system
and check the radio for proper operation. If the servos move
in the wrong direction, use the servo reversing switches on
your transmitter to change the direction of travel.
Adjust the control throws to the following measurements:
Rudder:
3/4” Right 3/4” Left
Elevator: 1/2” Up 1/2” Down
17...Drill a 1/16” hole in the bottom of the fuselage at the
location shown. Feed the receiver antenna through this hole.
Pull the antenna back to the rear of the fuselage and hold it
in place just in front of the tail skid with a piece of Scotch®
Tape. Allow the full length of the antenna to trail behind the
model. Do not cut the antenna to shorten it, as that will
reduce the reception range of your radio.
18...Remove the cabane struts from the die cut plywood
sheet and glue them to the fuselage sides using 5 minute
epoxy. They should sit on the ledges on the bottom of the
pockets on the side of the fuselage. When viewed from the
front the cabane struts should be vertical and should not lean
to one side or the other.
19...Trim the plastic Hatch Cover as shown. Test fit the
Hatch Cover to the fuselage and adjust as required
to achieve a proper fit. Note: A sharp hobby knife and
miniature snips are the best tools for trimming the part.
Remove the paper from the adhesive on one side of the
velcro squares and apply the two velcro squares to the top of
the fuselage as shown. Now remove the paper from the
adhesive on the top of the velcro and press the plastic
Hatch cover into position to attach the velcro to the cover.
