Step 8

Remove the servos and drill the holes for the servo mounting
screws using a 1/16-inch drill bit.

Step 9

Use a piece of string with a small weight (such as a wheel
collar) attached as a device to pull the servo lead through the
wing. Lower the weight through the servo opening, allowing it
to pass through the ribs and out the hole in the center of the
wing.

Step 10

Tie the string onto the servo extension. Gently pull the
extension through the wing using the string. Untie the string
when the servo lead has been pulled through. Use tape to
secure the servo lead to the wing to prevent it from falling
back into the wing panel. Secure the aileron servo using the
hardware provided with the servo.

Step 11

Repeat Steps 7 through 10 for the other aileron servo.

Step 12

Secure the throttle servo using the screws supplied with the
servo.

Step 13

Wrap the receiver and receiver battery in protective foam to
prevent damage that may be caused by engine vibration.

Step 14

Temporarily mount the receiver and battery into the fuselage.
It may be necessary to relocate the battery forward or aft to
balance the model as described in the section “Control Throws
and Center of Gravity.” Plug in any servo leads or extensions
at this time and connect any extensions necessary for the
aileron servos.

Step 15

Route the antenna out through the tube in the fuselage.

Step 16

Mount the radio switch in the side of the fuselage opposite the
throttle linkage.
