7. Mount the motor and gear box to the motor mount as
shown, using the screws included with the system.
❏
8. Make a tapered 3/16" spacer from leftover balsa and
glue it to the fuselage under the aft end of the motor as
shown on the plan.
❏
9. Secure the back of the motor to the fuselage with nylon
tape or a tie wrap (not included).
Final motor connections will be done when the servos and
receiver are installed.
The Hitec Feather Receiver is shown in these instructions.

1. If you haven't yet done so, trim the covering from the
servo bay as shown.
❏
2. Connect the aileron servo to slot number one on the
receiver, the elevator to number two and the speed control
to number three.
❏
3. Insert the receiver into the servo bay opening along side
of the fuselage. (If you are using a larger receiver you can
mount it outside the wing and secure it with rubber bands.)
❏
4. Drill 1/16" [1.6mm] holes in the servo rails for mounting
the servos. Add a drop of thin CA to the holes and allow to
harden. Mount the servos to the rails.
Now let's make the pushrods!

5. Cut the 1/16" x 24" [1.6 x 610mm] aluminum tube into
one 17-1/4" [438mm] piece and two 3-3/8" [86mm] pieces to
make the pushrod tubes. Hint: The tubing is easily cut by
placing the edge of your hobby knife blade on the tube, then
rolling the tube back and forth until it cuts through.
❏
6. Cut the .03" x 10" [.76 x 254mm] wire into four 1-1/2"
[38mm] pieces and two 3" [76mm] pieces.
