Step 7
Route the receiver antenna wire through the antenna
tube located on the right side of the fuselage. This
routes the antenna to the rear of the fuselage.
Step 8
Check to make sure the aileron servo lead and
receiver antenna wire are accessible. Place the
remaining flat radio foam piece over the receiver
battery and receiver.
DO NOT cut the antenna wire, as this will
significantly reduce the range and operation
of your radio system.
To make the installation of the receiver
antenna easier, use a small piece of music
wire. Slide the wire into the antenna tube
from the back of the fuselage. Attach the
receiver antenna to the wire and pull it
through the tube.
Step 9
Slide the plywood radio tray into the notches in the
former. Push the tray forward, against the fuel tank.
