1. Plug the aileron servos into the radio system and make

sure they operate and are centered as well.

2. Prepare the aileron servos for installation by removing

any unnecessary arms from the servo horns as shown

using side cutters. Install any grommets and brass

eyelets at this time as well. The servos will have the arms

installed opposite of each other as shown in the photo.

3. Position the aileron servo on the servo cover so the

arm is centered lengthwise in the cutout. The arm will

align with the edge of the servo cover as well. Use a

pencil to mark the position of the servo on the cover.

4. Use 6-minute epoxy to glue the servo mounting block

to the servo cover as shown. Allow the epoxy to fully cure

before proceeding.

kit to vary in length from the measurements listed

above. They have been cut to the correct length from

the manufacturer.
