4. Apply 2-3 drops of thin CA in each hole to
harden the surrounding wood. This creates a harder
surface for the screws to bite into, making them
more secure when holding the servo in position.
5. Use the screws provided with the servo to secure
it in the servo tray. Tighten the screws using a #1
Phillips screwdriver.
6. Repeat Steps 2 through 5 to install the rudder
servo in the servo tray.
7. Plug the rudder and elevator servos into the
receiver. Plug a Y-harness into the aileron port of the
receiver. If you are installing the operational flaps,
you will also want to plug a 3-inch (76mm) servo
extension in the flap (or AUX) port of the receiver.
8. Use scissors to cut a small piece of hook and
loop material. Use the hook and loop to mount the
receiver on the battery tray as shown. Make sure
to position the receiver far enough forward that
the speed control can be plugged in during the
motor installation.
