1. Check to see if your switch has a hole. If not, use a
drill and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill a hole through
the switch as shown.
Note
: The mouting plate from the switch will not be
used when installing the switch.
2. Mount the switch in the fuselage using the hardware
provided with the switch. A #1 Phillips screwdriver will be
necessary to tighten the screws on the switch harness.
3. Bend a short piece of .050 music wire (not included)
to actuate the switch from the outside of the fuselage. Drill a
small hole in the fuselage using a 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit
and pin vise for the wire to pass through.
4. Mount a JR Deluxe Charge Jack (not inlcuded) to
the side of the fusealge. This will allow you you to bind
the receiver and check the receiver battery voltage without
removing the wing from the aircraft.
5. Make the connections between the servos and
receiver at this time. Also plug the correct lead from
the switch harness in the battery port of the receiver.
Use two 3-inch (76mm) extensions for the aileron servo
connections to the receiver.
hint
: We used small pieces of fuel tubing on the
receiver antenna to keep them from getting bent when
the receiver is installed in the fuselage.
6. Place a piece of radio foam in the fuselage. The
receiver and receiver battery will rest in the foam as shown.
Note
: If using a Li-Po receiver pack, make sure to use
a regulator. Read the instructions for the regulator to
make sure it is installed correctly.
