3. Solder a clevis to each of the pushrod wires with
high quality silver solder. If you are unfamiliar with how
to solder a clevis use the “Hot Tip” that follows. Once
soldered install a silicone clevis keeper over the clevis
and install the clevis in the outer hole in the servo arms.
If you are not familiar with soldering follow the “Hot
Tip” on page 9.

4. Locate two threaded brass
couplers and install a 4-40 nut
and threaded 4-40 clevis and
silicone clevis keeper as shown.
❏
5. Center the servo arm for the tail wheel steering
servo. Install one of the clevis assemblies you just put
together into the outer hole in the servo arm. Install a
swage on each of the two rudder cables, securing it
following the same procedure used on the tail gear. Use
pliers to crimp the swage tightly on the cable. Attach
each clevis to the outer hole of the servo arm.
❏
6. Adjust the tension of the wires and then lock
the nut against the clevis. Be sure to apply a drop of
threadlocker to the nut.

INSTALL THE ENGINE,
THROTTLE / CHOKE SERVOS
AND IGNITION SWITCH
The following engine mounting instructions shows the
installation of the DLE55 side exhaust gas engine. The
installation of other brands of engines will be similar
and the following instructions can be used as a guide.
❏
1. The fi rewall has two sets of engine mounting bolt
patterns embossed on it. The “x” is for the DLE 55 side
exhaust gas engine.The “+” is for the DLE rear exhaust
engine. In the back of this manual we provided a paper
template for mounting the OS GT 60 gas engine. If you
are installing an engine with a different mounting bolt
pattern the fi rewall has crosshairs embossed on it to
help locate the correct mounting location. Drill a 3/16"
[4.8mm] hole through the fi rewall at each location
marked with a “x”.
❏
2. Install engine
mounting bolts, flat
washers and lock washers
from the back of the
fi rewall. (The mounting
hardware is not included
in this kit, it should come
with the engine. If your
engine did not include
fender washers, purchase
four fender washers to
mount the bolts from behind the fi rewall. The fender
washer helps to better spread the load from the engine).
Apply a drop of thread locker to each bolt before installing
them into the engine stand-offs. The stand-offs can be
permanently mounted. The bolts mounting the engine
to the stand-offs should not be permanently installed as
they will be removed several times during the process
of installing the engine.
❏
3. For reference, the distance from the front of the
fi rewall to the front of the drive washer is 6 -11/16"
[170 mm].

the engine that you will be installing in future steps.).
