Step 11: Retract Servo and Receiver installation

Install the retract valve and servo on a 1mm
ply wood plate. This will ease the
installation in the fuselage later.

Test the retract valve assembly and install
it in the plane. In our case the retract valve
and plate is glued to the fuselage wall
directly behind the fan.

In order to limit interference problems, find a suitable position for your receiver as far

away from ESC/Motor/Battery Wires as possible and install it.

We installed the receiver directly beside the elevator servo at the end of the fuselage.

The antenna is routed between thrust tube and fuselage.

Take note of the air tank installed behind the fan opposite to the retract valve.

As the ESC is located close to the tank isolate the tank to avoid it from coming into

contact with the ESC by accident.

Route the battery cables as far as possible away from any servo cables.
