Step 14 (continued…) – Mount the engine

 
 

The next step to complete the engine 
installation is to mount the throttle servo. 
The Velox Revolution II was designed to allow 
for the throttle servo to be mounted on the right 
or left hand side of the fuselage.   

 
k.  Place the throttle servo in the throttle 

servo mount on the side of the fuselage 
where the throttle assembly on your 
engine is located. 

l.  Align the throttle so that the control rod 

to the engine is able to move freely with 
no binding. 

 

 

 
 

m.  Mark the holes and drill with a 1.5mm drill 

bit.  Drip some thin CA in the holes to 
strengthen the hole. 

n.  When the CA has dried screw the throttle 

servo to the mount and finish installing the 
throttle control rod.

Step 15 - Assemble and mount the fuel tank 

 

a.  The first step in assembling the fuel tank 

is to slide plastic cover onto the supplied 
screw.  The slide the rubber stopper onto 
the screw and sandwich the rubber 
stopper with the metal base plate.  
Screw the assembly together, but do not 
tighten yet. 

b.  Slide the copper tubes into the stopper 

assembly.  You may use a 2 or 3 line 
setup as per your needs. 

c.  Make sure that the vent tube is bent 

upwards into the tank. 

d.  Slide the silicone fuel tubing onto the fuel 

feed tube.  Place the clunk on the other 
end of the silicone fuel tubing and make 
sure the length of the silicone tubing 
allows it to move freely in the tank when 
assembled.

e.  Insert the stopper assembly in the tank and 

tighten the screw to seal the tank. 

f.  Once the tank is assembled, place the fuel 

tank on the fuel tank shelf in the front of the 
fuselage as show below.  Place some foam 
rubber under the tank and secure to the 
shelf.  We like to use zip ties to secure the 
tank.
