Step 1

Locate the items necessary to install the aileron servo

in the wing.

Step 2

Install the grommets and brass eyelets in the servo. Place the

servo in the wing with the servo output shaft to the trailing

edge of the wing. Use a pencil to transfer the positions for the

servo mounting screws onto the servo mount.

Step 3

Remove the servo from the wing. Use a drill and 5/64-inch

(2mm) drill bit to drill the four holes to mount the servo.

hint

: Place the drill bit in the drill as far as possible to

avoid accidentally drilling through the top of the wing.

Step 4

Place 2–3 drops of thin CA in each of the holes to harden the

surrounding wood. This will make the screws more secure

and less likely to vibrate loose.
