it crosses the servo arm. Make a 90° bend at the mark and
attach the pushrod to the servo arm with a FasLink. Cut off the
excess pushrod.
❏
7. Follow the same procedure to install the rudder servo.
Make sure the control horn is installed over the hardwood block.
❏
8. Trim the covering from over the flap and aileron
servo openings.
❏
9. Connect 36" [914mm] servo extensions to the aileron
and flap servos. Use tape or heat-shrink to secure the
extension to the servo lead. Tie the strings in the wing to the
servo extensions and pull the extensions through the wing
and out of the wing root. Install the flap and aileron servos in
the wing using the hardware supplied with the servos.
❏
10. Install the aileron pushrod on the aileron and aileron
servo arm following the same procedure used to install the
elevator pushrod and control horn. Make sure the control horn
is installed over the hardwood block.
❏
11. Install the flap pushrod on the flap servo arm following
the same procedure used to install the aileron pushrod.
Note: If you will be using a Y-harness on both of the flap
servos, you will need to install the servo arms on the same
side of both flap servos so that they move in the same
direction (both flaps move down at the same time),
❏
12. Once you have the aileron and flap servos installed,
remove the horns and install the servo covers using two #2 x
3/8" [9.5mm] sheet metal screws. Remember to remove the
screws and use thin CA to harden the screw holes. If you will
be flying the Seawind ARF from water, we recommend that
you apply a bead of silicone sealant between the servo covers
and the wing to help seal the covers.
❏
1. Use denatured alcohol to clean the 5/32" x 1" [4 x 25.4mm]
metal anti-rotation pins.Then, use epoxy to glue the pins in both
wing panels, in the aft hole of the root rib. Apply a thin film of
epoxy on the rib to seal the wood.
