  The Zagi-20 ESC (Electronic Speed Control) is provided in the kit.  The

red and black pair of wires with the red male Deans Ultra connector plugs into the battery.
The red and blue pair of wires should be soldered to the motor. The Zagi-400 X uses a
pusher configuration which requires a reverse rotation motor.  Reversing the rotation of
the motor is achieved by reversing the polarity to the motor.  Look at the flat surface on
the back of the motor.  Observe the red dot next to one of the motor terminals.  Solder the
wires to the motor terminals, the blue wire on the terminal next to the red dot.  The third
set of wires is the cc with the universal RX servo connector.  This RX connector goes to
slot in the receiver to control motor speed.  The three wire ribbon connector will provide
power for the receiver and servos.  

No other receiver battery is necessary

.  The uni-

versal connector will work with all radios except the old Airtronics.  The red and brown
wires must be reversed in the plastic housing to change to the old Airtronics system.

Refer to the detailed ESC instruction sheet in the power pack

.

(See Figure 13)

  Attach the motor to the tray with a wire tie.  Locate the dimples on the

rails on either side of the motor mount.  Spin an X-acto blade in the dimples to make a
hole.  Elongate the holes to fit the wire tie.  Push the wire tie through from the top of the
tray.  Wrap the wire tie under the motor tray and through the hole on the opposite side.
Set the motor in the motor mount and push forward to the stop.  Thread the wire tie and
pull it tight.  Hold the tail of the wire tie with pliers and give it a good strong tug.  Trim the
tail off of the wire tie.  Slide the wire tie connection to the side of the motor.

(See Figure 11)

  The control rods may not fit in the servo control arm.  The end of the

control rod can be filed to fit in the servo control arm or the holes in the servo control arm
can be reamed by spinning an Xacto #11 blade in the hole or drilling with a #48 drill
(.076”).  Attach control rods to the servo control arms with a Z-bend.  (NOTE: Z-bend
pliers may be purchased from your local hobby store to facilitate this operation)   Position
the control horns on the elevon directly behind the servo control arm, close to the hinged
edge.  Be sure the control horn and screw plate do not interfere with the movement of the
elevon.  Mark the position of the control horns.  Drill two holes.  Install the control horns
on the elevons.  Note that the two screws will self thread into the plastic screw plate.
Attach the control rods to the top hole of the servo control arms.  Attach the clevises to
the top hole of the control horns.

Make a Z-bend by making two 90 degree
bends in the control rod.  Push the rod
through the servo output arm.
