4. Use a hobby knife with a #11 blade to trim the
tubing near both sides of the loop on the drop tank.
This will release the drop tank, yet the tubing will
be glued to the pylon. Also trim the tubing off at the
back of the pylon.
5. Slide the cable through the tubing and through
the loop in the drop tank. Pulling the cable will now
release the drop tank from the pylon.
5. Mount the sub-micro (we use an S75 servo
with a 3D servo horn) servo in the wing using the
screws provided with the servo and a #1 Phillips
screwdriver. Route the cable through the wing and
connect it to the servo using pushrod connectors.
You will need to install the pushrod connector that
is closest to the trailing edge of the wing upside
down on the servo arm. This is to ensure it does not
interfere with the rudder and elevator servos in the
fuselage when the wing is installed.
6. Insert the cable into the pushrod housing in the
wing panel. You will find it will make an indentation
in the bottom of the wing covering where it exits.
Using a hobby knife and #11 blade, slice a small
hole in the covering where the cable exits.
7. Slip the pylon over the cable that has exited the
bottom of the wing. You will have an extra amount
of cable sticking out the center section during this
process. The cable exit point locates the pylon on
the bottom of the wing. Once in position poke a
very small hole in the wing skin when the mount
holes are in the pylon using a hobby knife and #11
blade.
