5. Apply a piece of hook and loop tape to the

bottom of the receiver.

6. Plug the leads from the speed control, rudder

and elevator servos into the correct ports of the

receiver. Use the hook and loop tape to mount the

receiver in the fuselage as shown. Route the leads

through the hole in the battery tray to reduce clutter

inside the fuselage. The remote receiver is mounted

toward the rear of the fuselage as shown using

hook and loop tape.

7. Use the hook and loop straps to secure the motor

battery in the fuselage. Check that the power switch

is set to the OFF position and connect the leads

from the motor battery and speed control.

8. Center the rudder and elevator trims on the

transmitter. Set the throttle stick to the low throttle

position. Turn on the transmitter, then the receiver.

Place the servo horns on the rudder and elevator

servos as shown. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the

servo arms as shown in the photo. These will be the

arms the pushrods will be connected to.

9. Remove the horn from the elevator servo. Use

side cutters to remove any unused arms so they

won’t interfere with the operation of the servo. Use

a pin vise and 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit to enlarge

the hole in the horn that is 7/16-inch (11mm) from

the center of the servo horn.

10. Remove the horn from the rudder servo. From

a offset servo horn (not included), use side cutters

to remove any unused arms so they won’t interfere

with the operation of the servo. Use a pin vise and

5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit to enlarge the hole in the

horn that is 9/16-inch (15mm) from the center of

the servo horn. You will also need to enlarge the

hole that is 3/8-inch (9mm) from the center of the

horn using a pin vise and 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit.
