Attach your ESC to the bottom of the fuselage with a dab of welder glue. Install your micro receiver as

shown. Install a 3-4” extension on one aileron servo if needed and plug in all servos.

Install Velcro for battery holding as shown. NOTE: Self-adhesive Velcro does not stick well to EPP. We

recommend using welder glue with a few drops of CA to hold the Velcro in place while the Velcro dries.
