about 5 minutes

3M77, covering iron, masking tape
sandpaper, pliers, ruler, toothpick
Ultracote covering, small scissors
prick punch, marker, 1/8” drill
single edge razor blade and/or knife

protect against
unwanted 3M77
spray glue in these
areas.

Poke the servo spline through the
covering as shown
Step 138:
Use a sanding block to locate and

wing and gently stretch it to minimize wrinkles
Step 136:
Remove masking tape from
servos
Cut covering to have
