4. Cut a paper template to locate where the fan fairing

will exit the exhaust tube. Make sure the template fits

tightly against the mounting lugs as the overall width of

the template will be used for positioning.

5. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the edge of the fan

unit on the template. Make a mark for both of the

mounting lugs.

6. Align the template on the exhaust tube. The

marks made in the previous step will align with

the notches in the tube for the mounting lugs.

Make sure the template is on the side of the

exhaust tube with the seam (bottom). Use a felt-

tipped pen to trace the outline for the fan fairing

on the exhaust tube.

7. Remove the template from the exhaust tube. Use

hobby scissors to trim the exhaust tube for the fan

fairing. Slot the exhaust tube so it can be slid over

the fan fairing.

8. Check the fit of the exhaust tube on the fan unit.

It may be necessary to trim the opening slightly

using hobby scissors.

Matching the colors between the ESC and motor

when they are connected results in the correct

motor direction if using all E-flite components.

9. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to thread a

mounting screw into the four holes for mounting the

fan unit.
