31. From the 36" [914mm] fl exible white nylon tube
cut a 15" [381mm] and a 11" [279mm] length. Cut one
half of the threads off of the threaded end of two .074
× 6" [152mm] wires. Thread the wires into each of the
tubes. 1-1/4" [32mm] from the end of the tube make
a 90 degree bend in the wire. Slide the 15" [381mm]
nylon tube into the plastic tube you installed for the
choke. Lock the wire to the servo with a nylon Faslink.
Use a nylon tie wrap to secure the plastic outer tube
to the fuselage as shown. Repeat this for the throttle.
There is no need for the tie wrap for the throttle.

32. If your engine is not already mounted to the
stand-offs, install it now. Cut the threads off two more
.074 × 6" [152mm] wires threaded on one end. Thread
a nylon ball link on one. Cut another nylon ball link in
half as shown and then thread it onto a threaded wire.
Snap the full-length ball link onto the throttle on the
engine and snap the short ball link onto the engine
choke. Determine the fi nal length that the white nylon
rod needs to be to reach the throttle and choke. Cut
off the excess length of the nylon tubes. Remove the
ball links from the throttle and choke and then thread
them into the tubes. Snap the ball links onto the balls
on the throttle and choke. Slide the fuel line onto the
carburetor fi tting.

33. Install a “T” fi tting into each of the red and purple
airlines from the tail wheel. Connect an 8" [203mm]
length of red and purple air line to the end of the “T”
fi tting and the quick connect air line connectors. Finish
the installation by installing a 2" [52mm] piece of red
and purple air line between the “T” fi ttings and the
fi ttings on the air control valve.
❏
34. Route the air lines from the tailwheel through
the fuselage and secure them. We used some scraps
of balsa to secure them to the fuselage as shown.
