5. Install one foam wing retainer donut under each of

the two wing retainer posts as shown—the foam side goes
up. Four donuts are included—two are used for holding on
the wing and two are spares.

6. Insert one, then the other wing retainer post down

through the top of the wing into the post receptacles in the
fuselage. Turn each post 90 degrees to lock down the wing.

7. Replace the hatches over the posts.

8. Turn the model upside-down and rest it on a small

cardboard box, a couple of thick books or something similar.
Connect the wire for the wing lighting and the remaining
servo wires coming from the wing into the receiver and the
light control module. Connect the light control module to
the receiver. The same as when connecting the elevator
and rudder servos, connect the wires where noted on the
label. Note that, unlike the rest of the servo connectors
that have three wires, the wire coming from the light
control module that goes to the receiver (labeled “LIGHT
CH. 6”) has only two wires. Simply connect this plug into
the receiver so the black wire is “out”—same as the other
black wires for the servos.

9. Peel the protective backing from the double-sided foam

mounting tape on the back of the receiver and mount the
receiver into the fuselage.

10. Still without the propeller mounted, turn on the

transmitter and connect the battery. Refer to the sketch on
page 8 and use the transmitter to move the ailerons and fl aps
to make sure they are responding correctly. If necessary, use
the reversing switches on the front of the transmitter to get
the fl aps and ailerons responding correctly.

11. The amount of control surface throw has a great

effect on the way the model fl ies—its agility and response.
And the “throws” are factory set. However, the fl ap throw
can be changed by an adjustment screw in the front of the
transmitter. Make certain you have the correct amount of fl ap
throw. Move the fl ap switch on the front of the transmitter to
