fuselage, mark each lead according to which servo

this will help with set up later). You can use a
small tip marker or a piece of tape for this.

aileron and elevator extensions. A right and left

at the front, hold the rear of the decal up and
align the trim scheme from the decal to the
scheme on the aircraft. Carefully work toward
the rear of the fuselage, pressing the decal down

pushrod wire with the clevis and “Z” bend
into the hole of the servo arm that is in one
hole from the end of the horn as shown. The

second image.
You may have to slightly enlarge the hole in the servo
horns for the pushrod wire. Use a sharp #11 blade
to do this by twisting it in the hole on the top and
bottom of the servo arm. Do this a small amount at
a time as it will not need to enlarge the hole much.
