1. Remove the tape holding the servo hatch cover

on the fuselage. Set the cover aside. You may need

to use a covering iron to reseal the covering to the

fuselage if the tape lifts the covering.

2. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to thread a servo

mounting screw into each of the holes to cut threads

in the surrounding wood. Remove the screw before

moving to the next step. Use care not to press too

hard and damage the servo plate.

3. Apply 2–3 drops of thin CA in each of the holes

to harden the surrounding wood. This will harden

the threads so the screws do not easily strip the

surrounding wood.
