SERVO INSTALLATION
ALIGNING THE SERVOS
❑
1) Locate the two servos you intend to use for
the elevator and rudder controls.
❑
2) Carefully install the four rubber grommets
and four brass collets onto each of the servo mount-
ing lugs. For proper vibration reduction, the brass
collets should be inserted into the rubber grommets
with the flanges facing the bottom of the servo mount-
ing lugs. See figure # 4 below.

❑
3) Carefully remove the hatch cover that is tack-
glued to the bottom of the fuselage.
☛
If you have difficulty removing the hatch cover,
carefully run the blade of your modeling knife along
the seams and carefully "pop" the hatch cover out.
❑
4) Position the servos onto the preinstalled servo
rails, making sure that you run the servo wires below
the back rail and out the hatch in the bottom of the
fuselage. Pay close attention to the positions of the
servo output shafts. They should both face the back
of the fuselage. See photo # 15 below.

☛
Make sure that when you install the two servos
that they are pushed together and centered between
the fuselage sides as shown in photo # 15. This will
ensure that the servo horns do not touch the fuselage
sides when they are installed later.
MOUNTING THE SERVOS
❑
5) Using a drill with a 1/16” drill bit, drill eight
pilot holes through the servo rails for the eight servo
mounting screws included with your radio system.
☛
Drilling pilot holes through the servo rails will
prevent the rails from splitting when the screws are
installed and tightened.
❑
6) Using a # 1 phillips screwdriver, install and
tighten the mounting screws firmly to hold the ser-
vos in place.

❑
1) Locate one plastic "4-point" servo horn that
came with your servo. Each of the arms should have
at least three holes in them.
❑
2) Using a pair of wire cutters, carefully remove
one of the plastic arms.
❑
3) Using a drill with a 5/64” drill bit, enlarge
the third hole out from the center of the arm opposite
the one you cut off.
