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

sure they operate and are centered as well.

2. Prepare the flap servos for installation by removing

any unnecessary arms from the servo horns as shown.

You will also need to clean up the cuts to prevent any

portion of the removed arm from rubbing against the

servo cover when the servos are installed. Install any

grommets and brass eyelets at this time as well. The

servos will have the arms installed to match each other as

shown in the photo.

Note: The arms are shown in the center position

(which will be the mid flap position) if you are using

three-position flaps. Make sure when using proportional

flaps that the control has been centered before installing

the servo horns.
