11) When satisfied with the alignment,
secure the wheel pants in place by installing
two 2mm x 8mm wood screws through the
two predrilled holes in the gear bracket and
into the side of the wheel pant. Do this for
both wheel pants. See photo # 28 below.

PARTS REQUIRED
AILERON SERVO
INSTALLING THE AILERON SERVO
o
{2} 2mm x 85mm Wire Threaded w/L-Bend
o
{2} Nylon Clevises
o
{2} Nylon Snap Keepers
o
{2} Wing Servo Mounting Plate (W-25)
o
{2} Nylon Adjustable Control Horns
o
1) Install the rubber grommets and brass
collets onto your servo. Test fit the servo into
the precut servo hole in the top side of the
lower wing. The output shaft should be point-
ing towards the leading edge of the wing.
Because the size of servos differ, you may
need to adjust the size of the precut open-
ing. You may also need to use a modeling
knife and cut a groove to allow room for the
servo wire to exit the hole.
o
2) Remove the servo and position the two
servo mounting plates (W-25) on the wing.
The plates should be centered from side to side
and the inside edge should be even with the
servo opening. See photo # 29 below.

o
3) Hold the two plates in place and trace
around them using a pen. Remove the plates
and using a modeling knife, remove the cov-
ering from just inside the lines.
o
4) Mix a small amount of Kwik Bond 5
Minute Epoxy and glue the plates in place.
Allow the epoxy to cure completely.
o
5) Install the servo using the wood screws
provided with your radio system. Drill 1/16”
pilot holes through the plates before install-
ing the screws. This will help prevent the
wood from splitting.
INSTALLING THE AILERON LINKAGE
o
6) Thread one nylon adjustable control
horn onto each aileron torque rod. Thread
them on until the are 7/8” above the top sur-
face of the wing. See figure # 8 below.
Figure # 8
o
7) Thread one nylon clevis onto each of
the two 2mm x 85mm threaded rods with L-
bends.
o
8) With the servo centered, install one
dual takeoff servo arm onto the servo. The
arm should be installed so it is parallel with
the trailing edge of the wing.
o
9) Use a couple of pieces of masking tape,
taped between the ailerons and the trailing
edge of the wing, to hold the two ailerons in
neutral.
o
10) Snap the clevises onto the adjustable
control horns. With the servo arm and aile-
rons centered, push the L-bends down through
the holes in the servo arm. Adjust the length
of the wires by turning the nylon clevises in
or out until the correct length is achieved. Hold
the wires in place using two nylon snap keep-
ers. See photo # 30 at top right.
