•
Cut a length of dual-core cable around 25 cm long
and solder it to the battery terminals at one end
and a pair of G2 sockets at the other.
TIP:
wrap
insulating tape round the soldered joints at the
battery terminals; in the photograph only one end
is shown insulated.
•
Check that the propeller and the screws in the
shaft coupling (arrow) are tight, as they may have
come loose in transit; carefully re-tighten them if
necessary. You can check this by pulling on the
propeller: if the shaft can be withdrawn to the rear,
one of the grubscrews is loose. Remove the hatch
and fold the derricks to one side in order to gain
access to the grubscrews, then tighten them
carefully.
NOTE:
if the grubscrews are loose,
apply a drop of thread-lock fluid to them, e.g. UHU
schraubensicher, Order No. 952, as vibration
could cause them to work loose again while the
boat is running.
•
Fit the double-ended servo output lever on the
rudder servo. Press the rubber grommets
(supplied with the servo) into the mounting lugs of
the rudder servo, and push the brass spacer
sleeves through them from the underside. Fit the
servo in the opening in the internal hull, and drill 1
mm Ø pilot-holes through the mounting lug holes
before securing the servo using the retaining
screws supplied.
IMPORTANT:
take care not to
damage the servo lead when you fit the screws.
•
Set the rudder servo to centre from the transmitter.
Move the rudder blade to the “straight ahead”
position, and adjust the rudder pushrod in such a
way that the clevis pin fits exactly in the hole in the
servo output arm.
•
Attach Velcro (hook-and-loop) tape or double-
sided foam tape to the speed controller and the
receiver; install these components on the inside of
the hull wall in the vicinity of the superstructure.
•
Connect the rudder servo and the speed controller
to the receiver; the extension lead is required for
the rudder servo. Secure the cables neatly in the
hull using cable ties or Velcro tape.
