Complete all airlines now so the ducting can be installed. It is also advisable to 
run all the extension leads for the rudders, elevons, leading edge slats, and nose 
wheel and canard servo. 

 

 

 
 
Black air hoses are for brakes; keep these identical lengths to keep your braking 
capacity equal. Clip air hoses to the leg to avoid it being kinked or near any heat. 
 
 
 
I made a mount for the turbine ECU, fuel pump and valves so they sit under the 
ducting. 
 
Plastic clips keep airlines, fuel lines and extension leads neat and safe from 
excessive heat or kinking. 
 
All the doors need to remain open when the wheels are down. They close when 
the wheels retract. Keep this in mind when plumbing the air hoses. Use all the 4 
way joiners provided to make this job easier, I used different colours for each 
operation which are as follows. 
 
1. The main wheels and nose wheel are one system, red and yellow. 
2. The doors open when the wheels are down and close when they retract. They 
are one system, purple and clear. 
3. The brakes are one system, black.
