length required is 21”. A  12” extension cable will usually provide
sufficient length.

Plug the extension cable into the servo and

secure well with tape. Also, install the mounting grommet and
eyelets onto the servo as described in the instructions that came
with your radio.

5) Pull the wooden block and line out of the servo bay

opening. Remove the wood from the line and discard it. Tie the
line securely to the connector end of the servo cable. Carefully
pull the line and servo cable through the wing until the servo cable
emerges from the opening in the top of the wing.

6) Fit the servo into the servo mount in the wing panel, (note

that the servo is positioned so that its output arm is at the forward
end toward the wing leading edge). Take up any slack in the servo
cable as you insert the servo by pulling on the end of the cable
where it exits the top of the wing. Use a pin vise and a small drill
bit to drill small pilot holes in the servo mount for the servo
mounting screws. Use the screws supplied with your radio system
to mount the servo securely in place on the servo mount. Repeat
this procedure to mount the servo in the opposite wing panel.

7) The ailerons are now hinged to the wing panels.

The

installation process for these hinges is the same for all of the

control surfaces on this model. Press the  six CA hinges into the
slots in the aileron. Use pins in the center of each hinge to keep
them centered when pressing them into the slots in the trailing
edge of the wing.

8) Carefully press the hinges into the trailing edge of the wing.

Adjust the aileron so that the tip of the aileron is flush with the wing
tip. The ailerons should be tight against the pins in the hinges to
minimize the gap between the wing and the aileron. The aileron is
now in the proper position for permanently gluing them in place
with thin CA glue.

9) Flex the aileron down and hold it into this position with a

piece of masking tape. Remove the pins from one hinge and apply
3-4 drops of thin CA glue to the hinge. We suggest using a fine
tipped applicator on the glue bottle to better control the flow of
glue.

10) When the glue is dry, you can repeat the gluing procedure

on the remaining five hinges. Remove the tape that is holding the
flexed aileron in position and flex the aileron in the opposite
direction and re-apply the masking tape to hold it in this position.
Now, apply 4-5 drops of thin CA glue to the bottom of each hinge
on the aileron. Remove the masking tape and return the aileron to
its center position. Because it takes a little time for the glue to fully
