15. Use a rotary tool and cut-off wheel to trim the
axle at the mark made in step 12. Use vise grips to
hold the wire and to act as a heat-sink. This will keep
the heat from cutting the wire from transferring back
to the retract mechanism, which could melt the plastic.
Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners
to prevent them from vibrating loose.
16. Position the axle back on the wire and tighten
the screws using a 2.5mm hex wrench. Check the
operation of the gear using the radio system. Make
any minor adjustments necessary to make sure the
wheel does not bind in the wheel well during the
operation of the retract.
17. Use a razor saw to remove the alignment pin
from the landing gear door.
Note
: Do not remove alignment pin if using
EFL297519.
18. Place a small drop of silicone adhesive on the
gear door where it snaps onto the main gear wire.
Snap the gear door into position. With the retract
up, position the door so it does not interfere with the
opening for the retract. Allow the adhesive to fully
cure before operating the retracts.
19. Repeat steps 1 through 18 to install the
remaining retract assembly.

1. Connect the lead from the flap servo to the
Y-harness plugged into the AUX channel of the
receiver. Use the radio to center the flap servo.
The use of a 36-inch servo extension during setup
will facilitate linkage installation by allowing the wing
to be separate from the fuselage and be mobile.
