SERVO ARMS
If planning to do much 3D fl ying with Reactor .60 biplane,
extended servo arms will be required to achieve the necessary
3D throws. Otherwise, the standard servo arms that came
with your servos are suitable. For 3D fl ight, an extended
servo arm such as a Great Planes large-scale 1-1/2" [38mm]
single-sided servo arm (GPMM1105) is recommended for
the rudder servo and a Great Planes large-scale 1" [25mm]
single-sided servo arm (GPMM1100) is recommended for
each elevator servo. Standard servo arms are suitable for
the ailerons.

RECEIVER BATTERY
A minimum 1,000mAh receiver battery such as Futaba NR4F
1500mAh 4.8V battery (FUTM1285) is required to power the
radio system.

ELEVATOR/RUDDER SERVO WIRE EXTENSIONS
If using Futaba servos for the elevators and rudder, Futaba
400mm (16") servo extensions may be used, but they
are just long enough to reach the receiver. These are the
extensions illustrated in the instruction manual. If for some
reason you will be mounting your receiver farther forward,
or if you prefer more economical servo extensions, Hobbico
24" [610mm] servo extensions are also suitable. If using
digital servos, remember to use servo extensions suitable
for digital servos.

These are the order numbers for the elevator and
rudder servo extensions for digital servos:

(3) Futaba 400mm (16") AEC-15 servo extensions for

digital servos (FUTM4145)

OR

(3) Hobbico Pro 24" [610mm] heavy-duty servo extensions

for digital Futaba servos (HCAM2721)

These are the order numbers for the elevator and
rudder servo extensions for standard servos:

(3) Futaba 400mm (16") AEC-11 servo extensions for

standard servos (FUTM3955)

OR

(3) Hobbico Command

24" [610mm] servo extensions

for standard Futaba servos (HCAM2200)

AILERON SERVO WIRE EXTENSIONS:
Same as for the elevator and rudder servos, if using digital
servos, be certain to use compatible servo extensions.

These are the order numbers for the aileron servo
extensions for digital servos:

(4) Hobbico Pro 6" [300mm] servo extensions for digital

Futaba servos (HCAM2701)

(1) Hobbico Pro 12" [600mm] servo extension for digital

Futaba servos (HCAM2711)

(3) Futaba AEC-16 dual servo connectors for digital

servos (FUTM4135)

These are the order numbers for the aileron servo
extensions for standard servos:

(4) Hobbico Command 6" [300mm] servo extensions for

standard Futaba servos (HCAM2000)

(1) Hobbico Command 12" [600mm] servo extension for

standard Futaba servos (HCAM2100)

(3) Futaba AEC-13 dual servo connector for standard

servos (FUTM4130)

If Y-harnesses are preferred inside each wing (instead
of two 6" [300mm] servo extensions and one dual
servo connector), these are the order numbers for
Y-harnesses for digital servos:

(2) Hobbico Pro Y-harnesses for digital Futaba servos

(HCAM2751)

(1) Hobbico Pro 12" [600mm] servo extension for digital

Futaba servos (HCAM2711)

(1) Futaba AEC-16 dual servo connector for digital servos

(FUTM4135)

These are the Y-harnesses and extensions for
standard servos:

(2) Hobbico Command Y-harnesses for standard Futaba

servos (HCAM2500)

(1) Hobbico Command 12" [600mm] servo extension for

standard Futaba servos (HCAM2100)

(1) Futaba AEC-13 dual servo connector for standard

servos (FUTM4130)
