Remove just sufficient polystyrene to the inside
the factory prepared servo-wells to accommodate
your chosen servos. Alternatively remove all of the
polystyrene to reveal the inside of the upper wing
skin and then apply a layer of suitably treated 100
gr / m² glass cloth to prevent any indentations
appearing in the upper surface of the wing when
the servos are installed.
Installation of the airbrakes
For those customers who have purchased the
Carbon Master Edition (CME) with the built-in
air- brakes - please complete the following
additional steps:
Carefully remove the foil around the airbrake
opening to reveal the factory installed airbrakes.
Refer to the instructions for assembly, dismantling
and installation of the airbrake mechanisms given
in the Appendix.
The supplied self adhesive white plastic strips are
fixed to the upper surface of the airbrakes to form
the airbrake caps. Adjust carefully to achieve
minimum gaps and a good aerodynamically clean
wing surface – as shown.

Installing the wing control horns.
Note:
ARF customers will need to remove a little
of the covering material while those building the
ARC version may prefer to wait until after the
wings have been covered before bonding the
control horns in place.
Ailerons: Mark out the position of the aileron
control horns on the lower surface of the aileron.
The horn should be positioned directly opposite
the scoop in the servo cover and about 3 mm from
the aileron leading edge.
Drill a series of 2mm diameter holes and cut away
the excess to form a neat slot to accommodate the
supplied GRP control horns. Take care not to cut
through to the upper surface of the aileron and
undercut a little of the material inside the slot to
allow for additional adhesive.
Locate the aileron control horn such that the eye is
at 90° to the hinge line and about 12mm above the
lower surface of the aileron.
Flaps: Similarly locate the slots to accommodate
the supplied GRP control horns about 3mm behind
the leading edge of the flap such that the eye is
located about 10mm behind the flap leading edge
and about 13mm above the lower surface of the
flap.
As before, drill a series of 2mm diameter holes and
cut away the excess to form a neat slot to
accommodate the supplied GRP control horns.
Take care not to cut through to the upper surface
of the aileron and undercut a little of the material
inside the slot to allow for additional adhesive.
Once satisfied with the position of the control
horns, roughen the ends of each and bond the GRP
control horns into place using thickened epoxy and
allow to cure.

Wing servo wiring.
Given the number of wing servos present, take
time to consider how best to achieve the electrical
connections between the receiver in the fuselage
and the wing servos. Individual aero-modellers
will no doubt have their own preferences, but we
would recommend the use of quality polarised
connectors with Gold plated contacts, a
combination of either D-Type connectors, or high
current (green) plugs & sockets.
Prepare the cable harnesses required to connect the
wing mounted aileron and flap servos to the
receiver system in the fuselage. The connectors
may be either fixed into the wing and/or fuselage,
or left on flying leads. However, it is generally
recommended that at least one side of the cable
harness should be permanently mounted as this
reduces wear and tear on the cables and is more
convenient when rigging the model at the flying
site.
Regardless of how exactly you choose to proceed,
be sure to use good quality twisted servo leads
with a wire diameter of no less than 0.25 mm ²
capable of delivering adequate current for the
multiple wing servos under load. Pay careful
attention to the solder connections ensuring good
mechanical and electrical joint in each case. Be
sure to insulate each joint with heat-shrink for
additional security. Some may wish to apply a
bead of silicone compound to the soldered ends to
avoid stress points when handling the connectors.
