the outer-most hole using a #57 [1.1mm] drill bit or carefully
enlarge the hole using your hobby knife. Note: The long arms
measure 3/8" [9.5mm] from the center to the outermost hole.
Install the servo arm retaining screw.

3. Clean the servo case of each aileron servo with
denatured alcohol. Remove any label that will prevent
you from gluing the servo case directly to the servo bay
cover, and scuff the surface of the case with some sand
paper. To make it easier to remove in the future, you may
wrap the case with electrical tape or heat shrink tubing
before you glue it in. Use medium CA to glue a servo to
the servo bay cover so that the tip of the servo arm is
centered in the opening.

4. As an alternative to gluing the servos in place, we
have provided 5 x 5 x 10mm [3/8"] wood blocks that you
may use to attach the servos to the servo bay covers. If you
choose to use these, make sure that you align the servo as
detailed in the previous step. Glue the blocks to the cover
using medium CA. Drill the servo screw holes using a 1/16"
[1.6mm] drill and harden the screw holes using thin CA.
Install the servo screws.

5. Connect the aileron servos to the servo lead
extensions provided in the wing. Use a piece of 3/8" [9.5mm]
diameter heat shrink tubing or electrical tape to secure the
connectors. If you use heat shrink tubing, pull the extension
out of the wing enough to heat the shrink tubing without
damaging the covering. Use the string to pull the extension
through the center of the wing. Note: There is a Y-connection
inside the wing, so only one male connector exits the wing
center section.

6. Install the servo bay covers using eight 2 x 6mm
[1/4"] sheetmetal screws. Remove the screws and the covers
and harden the screw holes with thin CA.

7. Fit a 1 x 65mm [2-1/2"] Z-bend pushrod to the
outer-most hole in each aileron servo arm. Slide a screw-lock
