1. Attach the X-mount to the motor using the

hardware included with the motor and a #1

Phillips screwdriver.

Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners

to prevent them from vibrating loose.

2. (Power 25) Secure the motor to the firewall using

the four 4-40 x 3/4-inch socket head cap screws.

Use a 3/32-inch hex wrench to tighten the screws.

Make sure to use threadlock on these screws to

2. (Power 32) Secure the motor to the firewall

using the four 3/8-inch (9.5mm) aluminum motor

standoffs and four 4-40 x 3/4-inch socket head cap

screws. Use a 3/32-inch hex wrench to tighten the

screws. Make sure to use threadlock on these screws

to prevent them from vibrating loose.

3. Remove the battery hatch by lifting it at the rear.

The rear is held in position with magnets, while the

front is held in position with dowels.

Matching the colors between the ESC and motor

when they are connected results in the correct

motor direction if using all E-flite components.

4. Connect the leads from the motor to the speed

control. Once connected, position the leads in the

fuselage to prevent them from interfering with the

operation of the motor or battery installation.
