16. Bend the pushrod up 90° at the mark. Cut off the
excess pushrod 1/4" [6mm] from the bend.

(or a #48 drill bit).
❏
18. Attach the pushrod to the servo using a Faslink connector.
❏
19. Repeat this procedure for connecting the rudder pushrod.

20. Adjust the location of the plywood pushrod tube support
so the pushrods are as straight as possible. Also, position the
elevator guide tube so it is approximately 1" [25mm] from the
back of the fuselage. Glue the guide tubes to the support and
the support to the fuselage using epoxy.
Hint: Roughen the
guide tubes and fuse sides to help the glue stick better.
❏
1. Wrap the receiver battery with 1/4" foam rubber and
install it as far forward in the nose as possible.

2. Extend the antenna and route through the inside of the
fuselage towards the tail. Try to keep it as straight as possible.
❏
3. Wrap the receiver in 1/4" foam rubber and position
behind the battery. Route the servo extension wires under
the servos to the wing saddle area.
❏
4. Install the switch in front of the servos on the tray. Use
a scrap piece of light ply to make a mount that fits your
particular switch.
❏
5. Hook up all the servos to your receiver. Connect a “Y”
harness for the flaps and two 12" [305mm] extensions for
the ailerons to the receiver.
NOTE: Consult your radio's
instruction manual for proper connection.
