(Four-stroke throttle linkage) When installing a four-
stroke engine, the Z-bend in the pushrod will connect to the
carburetor arm. Use the included pushrod connector at the
servo to connect the pushrod at the servo. Use a 1.5mm hex

should be open slightly when the trim is centered, but closed
if the trim is set to close the throttle. It may be necessary to
adjust the throw at the radio slightly to operate the throttle
from fully open to fully closed.
17. Prepare the holes for the fuel tank braces by using
a #1 Phillips screwdriver to thread a 2mm x 10mm black
washer head screw into the four pre-drilled holes as shown.
Apply 2–3 drops of thin CA in each hole to harden the
surrounding wood.
