INSTRUCTIONS
8. Check the fit of the ailerons with the CA style
hinges. Each aileron should have (3) hinges.
9. Slide the ailerons in place, then glue the hinges
in place with thin CA. Use two or three drops
per hinge, per side.
10. Locate the bag with the aileron hardware and
pull out for the ailerons; (2) aileron couplers, (2)
clevis, and (2) rod keepers. Pull out (2) black
control rods 8” long from the wire bundle.
11. Connect your servo to the radio and center the
trims.
12. Install a (2) arm servo horn on the aileron servo
(trim 2 arms from a 4 arm servo horn). Thread
the aileron coupler on the horn and the clevis on
the control rod. Snap the clevis on the servo
horn at the holes furthest from the center.
13. Align the control rod with the horn and bend the
rod 90 degrees at the position where the rod
should pass through the coupler. When bent, use
wire cutters to cut the excess off, leaving ¼ to
3/8” to pass through the coupler.
14. Snap the aileron rod keeper on the end of the rod
as shown. Make sure you install both the left
and right side ailerons. If you need to adjust the
aileron linkage, just pop off the keeper, adjust,
and re-install.
15. Locate the landing gear grooves through the
covering on the bottom of the wing and mark
with a water-soluble marker. Slit the covering
with a sharp blade.
16. Locate the bag containing the fixed landing gear
components. Each side will require (1) wheel,
(1) wire gear, (2) plastic gear straps, (4) ½”
screws, (1) wheel collar and screw.
17. Fit the landing gear wire in the notches of the
gear block.
