 4. Center the trims and connect a battery to the ESC to 

power the system up. Mount the servo arms 90°—or as close 
to 90° as you can get—to the servos and install the servo 
screws. Be certain the servo arms are all the way down on 
the toothed output shafts before installing the screws.

 5. Disconnect the servos and the ESC from the receiver. 

Use the tiny wood screws included with this kit or the screws 

included with your servos to mount the servos to whichever 

of the two balsa servo trays fi ts your servos. Add a small drop 
of CA to the tips of the screws where they come through the 
bottom of the servo tray.

 6. Fit, then glue the servo tray into position—although the 

parts you are gluing here are balsa and regular CA could be 
used, foam-safe CA is still recommended.

 1. If using the recommended APC 8 x 3.8 Slow-Flyer 

propeller, install the larger I.D. spacer ring that came with 
the propeller into the back of the propeller hub. Reinstall the 
propeller adapter on the RimFire 250 motor so the propeller 
will mount on the large end of the adapter—don’t forget to 
use a tiny drop of threadlocker on the threads of the adapter 
screws. 

Note:

 If the heads of the adapter screws interfere 

with the base of the propeller hub not allowing the hub to lie 
fl at and square, carefully chamfer the base of the hub just 
enough to clear the screws.
