1)
Remove the aileron and three hinges from one
wing panel. Test fit the three C/A hinges into the hinge
slots in the aileron. Each hinge should be inserted far
enough into the slots so that the centerline of the hinges is
flush with the leading edge. If the hinges cannot be in-
serted deeply enough, use a modeling knife to carefully
cut the hinge slots deeper. See photo # 3 below.

the C/A to wick into the hinges, then turn the aileron over
and repeat this procedure on the other side. Let the C/A
dry for about 10 minutes before proceeding.
❑
3)
Slide the aileron and its hinges into the precut
hinge slots in the trailing edge of the wing panel. Adjust
the aileron so that the tips of the aileron don't rub against
the edges of the wing panel.
❑
4)
While holding the aileron tight against the wing
panel, pivot the aileron down about 45º. Apply 3-4 drops
of Kwik Bond Thin C/A to the exposed area of each hinge.
Turn the wing panel over and repeat for the other side of
the hinges. Allow the C/A to dry for about 10 minutes.
Once the C/A has dried, the aileron may be stiff and diffi-
cult to move. This is normal. Gently pivot it up and down
about five to ten times to free it up.
❑
5)
Repeat steps # 1 through # 4 to hinge the aileron
to the second wing panel.
INSTALLING THE AILERON SERVOS
❑
6)
Plug one Cirrus 24" aileron extension into each
of the two aileron servo leads.
❑
7)
Using a modeling knife, cut two pieces of Dubro
heat shrink tubing to a length of 1-1/2". Slide one piece
of tubing over each extension lead and up over the plugs
where the servo leads and the extensions are connected.
Carefully shrink the pieces of tubing using a heat gun or a
lighter to secure the plugs firmly in place.
☛
The heat shrink tubing will prevent the plugs from
coming apart during assembly and, more importantly, dur-
ing flight. If you don't use heat shrink tubing, electrical
tape works well also.
❑
8)
Plug the two aileron extension leads into the
Y-Harness, then plug the Y-Harness into its proper slot in
the receiver. Plug the ESC into the receiver and the flight
battery into the ESC . Turn on the radio system and cen-
ter the servos using the aileron trim lever on the transmitter.
❑
9)
Install a single long servo arm onto each of the
two servos. The arms should be installed 90º to the cen-
terline of the servos. See photo # 4 below.

2)
With each of the hinges centered, apply 3-4 drops
of Kwik Bond Thin C/A to the joint where the hinges and
the aileron meet. Allow a few seconds between drops for
