Radio box in position for servo mark.
Marks ½ inch from corner.
Rudder servo mounted ½ inch from corner.
Lay the servo box on its end, opening towards you.
Make a pencil mark ½ inch from the right side,
inside the box. This is where the rudder servo will
mount.
Get a piece of scrap 1/8 wood from the kit, and
place this on the floor of the radio box, where the
rudder servo will be.
With the radio box still on its side, glue the rudder
servo mounts in with CA, aligning to your pencil
mark. Make sure the 1/8 scrap is under the servo,
to space it up from the radio box bottom. Do not
glue any part of the servo to the radio box! Check
the servo wire!
Hold firmly until dry.
Your engine will determine where you mount the
throttle servo.
Mount it the same way as you did the rudder servo.
Drill 3/8 holes where the pushrods will exit.
Remove everything from the radio box, and coat the
inside and outside with finishing resin.
Be careful not to get any buildup in the lip, where
the lid seats. It will make it impossible for the lid to
seal properly. To get inside the upper part, bend an
acid brush about 120 degrees, and it works very
well.
Seal the lid, as well. You can seal one side, drop it
onto some waxed paper and do the other side.
You can seal the inside, top and all four sides of the
outside in one session.
You don’t have to seal the bottom yet, as we will do
that when we epoxy the radio box into the boat.
Allow to cure overnight.
