Throttle pushrod and switch detail.
Weight holding radio box down while epoxy
cures.
Rudder linkage.
These hold the rubber bands that secure the tank in
place. We used a 14 ounce tank.
Put the rudder on with a couple of screws.
Set the radio box between the ply rails, about
1 inch behind bulkhead 4.
Drill a small (1/8) hole through the transom, in the
approximate location of the rudder pushrod.
Put a piece of small wire through the hole, and see
how the rudder servo arm lines up with the rudder
arm.
If you are way off, you can easily drill another small
hole, and fill the first one later.
Plan your throttle arrangement at this time, and drill
any necessary holes, as the radio box will be
permanently attached to the boat in the following
steps.
Sand the insides of the rails where the radio box
goes. Also sand the bottom where the radio box will
touch.
Mix up about ½ ounce of 30 minute epoxy.
With a small brush, coat the bottom of the radio
box, and between the rails.
Set the radio box in place, 1inch behind bulkhead 4.
Make sure the box is in correctly (rudder servo in
rear).
Put some weight in the box to hold it in position
Double check that the box didn’t move, and go
away for an hour.
