LANDING GEAR & SERVO INSTALLATION
VII. Landing Gear Assembly
❐
Run the 4 x 40mm Socket Head Bolts through the large wheels fol-
lowed by a 4mm locknut. Tighten just enough so that the wheel can
turn freely.Then thread another 4mm nut and a washer then push it all
through the landing gear and wheel pant.Adjust the wheel is centered
in the wheel pant then tighten down with another 4mm locknut.
Repeat for other side.
Locate the six 4x15mm wood screws and washers to attach the main
landing gear to the fuselage.
VIII. Radio Installation
❐
Install the throttle, rudder and elevator servos.The upper one in the
photo is rudder servo, middle one is elevator servo and the bottom one
is throttle servo.
❐
With the servos are in the neutral position, use Z bend pliers to bent
the pushrod and insert the Z bend end into the servo horn. Install
throttle servo & attach the EZ Connector to the throttle servo arm
with the servo in the neutral position and the carburetor at half throt-
tle.This will give you an excellent starting point for radio setup.
❐
Set the switch plate against the left side of the fuselage and scribe
a line inside the switch plate with an Xacto knife. Remove the switch
plate and cut through the covering and balsa. We have placed our
switch against the pink stripe.
Wrap the receiver and battery pack in foam padding and secured to
the servo tray.
