11. Using the hardware included with your servos, mount
the throttle, elevator and rudder servos onto the tray,
positioning them as shown.
❏
12. Wrap the battery and receiver in 1/4" [6mm] foam (not
included). Install your battery and receiver onto the
receiver/battery tray as shown (the battery should be at the
aft end of the tray). Use two #64 rubber bands on both the
battery and the receiver to hold them securely to the tray.
❏
13. Install your radio switch and charge jack to the
fuselage. We used the Great Planes Switch and Charging
Jack Mounting Set (GPMM1000). We mounted it on the left
side of the fuselage behind the servo tray.
❏
14. Temporarily set the receiver/battery tray onto the
fuselage. Plug the switch into the battery and receiver. Plug
the servos into the receiver. Turn the transmitter and
receiver on, centering the servos. Place the servo arms onto
the servos as shown in the photograph at step 13. Once the
servos are centered, you can unplug everything and set the
receiver/battery tray to the side or you can leave things
plugged in and do the following steps. If you leave things
connected you may wish to use masking tape to hold the
receiver/battery tray to the fuselage while you are working.
Refer to this photo when connecting the pushrods in
the following steps.
❏
15. Pull the throttle pushrod wire as far aft as it will go.
Align the throttle pushrod wire with the hole in the end of the
throttle servo arm. Using a marker, mark the location where
the wire aligns with the outside hole in the servo arm. On
that mark make a 90° bend. From the bend measure up 3/8"
[9.5mm] then cut off the excess pushrod wire.
❏
16. Install the wire into the hole in the servo arm using a
nylon FasLink as shown in the sketch.
❏
17. Center the rudder and the nose gear. Install the
pushrod wires to a double servo arm using the same
procedure you used on the throttle. Use the outside hole for
the rudder and the second hole in from the end for the
nose wheel.
❏
18. Center the elevators, then align one of the elevator
pushrods with the hole you are using in the elevator servo
arm. Mark the wire where it meets the hole in the servo arm.
