Step 1: Installing the Throttle Pushrod Wire
❑
Remove the throttle arm from your engine and install the Z-Bend in the pushrod wire into the outermost hole in the
throttle arm.
❑
Slide the pushrod wire through the predrilled hole in the
firewall and reinstall the throttle arm onto your engine.
☞
So that the pushrod wire lines up with the throttle arm
and won't hit your muffler when it's installed later, you will have
to make a bend in the pushrod wire.
Step 2: Installing the Adjustable Servo Connector
❑
Enlarge the
third hole
out from the center of the servo
arm using a 5/64" drill bit.
❑
Install the adjustable servo connector into the servo arm.
IMPORTANT
When threading on the connector nut, don't
tighten the nut completely. You don't want the connector loose,
but you do want it to be able to rotate without binding.
❑
To prevent the connector nut from loosening during flight, apply a drop of thin C/A to it. Allow the C/A to dry before
proceeding.
❑
Connect your radio system and plug the throttle servo lead (forward-most servo) into the receiver. Check to ensure
that the throttle servo output shaft is rotating in the correct direction. When the throttle control stick is moved forward,
from the idle to the full throttle position, the servo output shaft should rotate clockwise. If it doesn't, flip the servo
reversing switch on your transmitter.
❑
Using a modeling knife, carefully cut away all but one arm from a large "4-point" servo horn.
