11. INSTALLING THE SWITCH, RECEIVER AND BATTERY.
1)
Cut out the switch hole using a modeling knife. Use a
2mm drill bit and drill out the two mounting holes
through the fuselage side.
2)
Secure the switch in place using the two machine
screws provided with the radio system.
3)
Plug the servo leads and the switch lead into the
receiver. You may want to plug an aileron extension into
the receiver to make plugging in the aileron servo lead
easier when you are installing the wing. Plug the battery
pack lead into the switch.
4)
Wrap the receiver and battery pack in the protective
foam to protect them from vibration. Use a rubber band
or masking tape to hold the foam in place.
5)
Position the battery pack and receiver behind the
fuel tank. Use two tie wraps to hold the battery and
receiver securely in place as pictures below.
Do not permanently secure the receiver and battery
until after balancing the model.
6)
Using a 2mm drill bit, drill a hole through the side of
the fuselage, near the receiver, for the antenna to exit.
Position the canopy so the rear frame on the canopy
is aligned with the rear edge of the cockpit opening. Use
canopy glue to secure the canopy to the canopy
hatch. Use low-tack tape to hold the canopy in
position until the glue fully cures. Wrap the tape
completely around the canopy hatch.
