  6. Bolt the wing to the fuselage with the M6 x 50mm nylon 

wing bolt—don’t over tighten the bolt—just enough to securely 

“snug” the wing up to the fuselage.

  7. Apply the rougher, “hook” side of the included hook-and-

loop material to the fuselage 

fl

 oor and the softer, “loop” side to 

the battery.

FINAL ASSEMBLY ––––––––––––––––––––––

Hook Up the Controls

  1. Connect the servo and ESC wires to the appropriate channels 

in your receiver.

  2. Use the included double-sided foam mounting strip to 

mount the receiver in the fuselage out of the way where it will 
not interfere with installation and removal of the battery.

  3. Without the propeller yet mounted, temporarily place the 

battery in the fuselage, turn on your transmitter and connect the 
battery to the ESC to power the system up so you can check the 
controls.

  4. Make sure all the controls respond in the correct direction 

according to your inputs and that all the control surfaces are 
centered—if necessary, use the servo reversing in your transmitter 
and adjust the pushrods in the screw-lock connectors to center 
the controls. Whether or not you adjusted any pushrods, 

double-

check that the screw in all the screw-lock connectors are 
tight and secure
