Attach a 12” servo extension to your servo and secure with thread or
heat shrink tubing. Use the manufacturer supplied mounting hardware
and install the servo with the output shaft toward the leading edge of
the wing.

19.

Electronically center your servo. We will fabricate the linkage much
in the same way as the elevator linkage. Aileron control horn length
should be 1.50”. As always, use blue Loctite on ALL bolts!
