Remove the pre-cut electronics bay cookie from the center of the
wing.  Save the cookie, it will be used later.  The servo bays are
cookie cutouts in the shape of a servos.  The cutouts are not easy
to see.  Poking a finger from the bottom while inspecting the top
helps.  Locate the cutout and push the cookie about halfway
through into the bottom of the wing.

The shape of the cutout indicates the orientation of the servo.
Push the servo into the cutout forcing the cookie through to the
bottom side of the wing.  Cut away any foam that prevents the
insertion of the servo.

Use the servo to push the cookie out to the bottom side of the
wing.  Align the servo so that it is flush with the top of the wing
while pressing the cookie from the bottom.

Use a sharp kitchen knife to cut the cookie flush with the bottom of
the wing.  Another method is to mark the perimeter of the cookie
with a pencil, remove the cookie and make the cut.

Push the cookie from top to bottom of the wing about 1/4 inch.
Spray a small amount of adhesive on the edges of the cookie and
push it back in place.
