2. Install the rudder and elevator servos in the servo tray.
Insert the pushrods through the pushrod connectors and
install the servo arms on the rudder and elevator servos. Align
the pushrod connectors with the pushrods. Use the hardware
included with the servos to mount the servos to the tray.

3. Cut a piece of soft hook-and-loop material and use CA
to glue it to the bottom of your receiver. Cut an opposite piece
of the hook-and-loop material and glue it to the bottom of the
battery tray, centered between the three slots. Connect the
rudder and elevator servos to the receiver and mount the
receiver to the battery tray. Optional: Use double-sided foam
tape (not included) to attach the receiver to the battery tray.
❏
4. Trim the covering from the five cooling air exit holes aft
of the wing saddle. Route the receiver antenna out one of
the holes and tape it to the bottom of the fuselage.
❏
5. Connect the electronic speed control (not included) to
the motor leads. If the ESC to be installed does not have
bullet connectors, you will need to install the included
connectors on the ESC. If the ESC has an on/off switch,
mount it through the side of the fuselage. Connect the ESC
to the throttle channel in the receiver.
❏
6. Use a sharp kniffe to strip 3/16" [5mm] of the insulation
from the end of the ESC wire. Insert the wire in the bullet
connector and use pliers to crimp the connector around the
wire. Place a piece of clear heat shrink aound the connector
and use a heat gun to shrink it.
❏
7. Switch on the transmitter, connect the charged motor
battery and switch on the ESC. Center the rudder and
elevator trims. If necessary, remove the servo arms and
reinstall them perpendicular to the centerline of the servo.
Reinstall the servo arm screws.
❏
8. Center the elevator and rudder, then tighten the set
screws in the pushrod connectors. Trim off the excess
pushrod wires 1/4" [6mm] past the connectors.
