Install one adjustable metal connector through the third
hole out from the center of one servo arm, enlarge the
hole in the servo arm using a 2mm drill bit to accommo-
date the servo connector. Remove the excess material
from the arm.
After installing the adjustable metal connector apply
a small drop of thin C/A to the bottom nut. This will
prevent the connector from loosening
during flight.

Slide the fiberglass cowl over the engine and
line up the back edge of the cowl with the marks you
made on the fuselage.

While keeping the back edge of the cowl flush
with the marks, align the front of the cowl with the
crankshaft of the engine. The front of the cowl should
be positioned so the crankshaft is in

the middle
of the cowl opening. Hold the cowl firmly in place using
pieces of masking tape.
3)
Slide the cowl back over the engine and secure
it in place using four wood screws. See picture below.

Install the muffler and muffler extension onto
the engine and make the cutout in the cowl for muffler
clearance. Connect the fuel and pressure lines to the
carburetor, muffler and fuel filler valve.
Drill four 2.5mm pilot holes through both the cowl and
the side edges of the firewall. Using a 3mm drill bit,
enlarge the four holes in the cowling.
