INSTALLING THE THROTTLE
1. Install one adjustable metal connector through the
third hole out from the center of one servo arm,
enlarge the hole in the servo arm using a 2mm drill
bit to accommodate the servo connector. Remove
the excess material from the arm.
After installing the adjustable metal connector
apply a small drop of thin C/A to the bottom nut.
This will prevent the connector from loosening
during flight.
2. Plug the throttle servo into the receiver and turn
on the radio system. Check to ensure that the
throttle servo output shaft is moving in the
correct direction. When the throttle stick is
moved forward from idle to full throttle, the
throttle barrel should also open and close using
this motion. If not, reverse the direction of the
servo, using the transmitter.
3. Slide the adjustable metal connector/ servo arm
assembly over the plain end of the pushrod
wire. Position the throttle stick and the throttle
trim at their lowest positions.
4. Manually push the carburator barrel fully closed.
Angle the arm back about 45 degree from
center and attach the servo arm onto the servo.
With the carburator barrel fully closed, tighten
the set screw in the adjustable metal connector.
5. Remove the excess throttle pushrod wire using
wire cutters and install the servo arm retaining
screw.

6. Center the rudder servo using the radio and
install the servo arm. Attach the metal clevis to
the rudder servo arm.
7. Slide a crimp onto the cable, then pass the cable
through the threaded cable end. Pass the cable
back into the crimp and use crimping pliers to
secure the crimp to the cable.
8. Thread the metal connector to the metal clevis.
9. Attach the clevis to the rudder servo. There
should be light tension on each of the wires
when installed properly.
Note:
Remember use thread locking compound
to secure.
