 10. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver and two 2.5mm
x 12 sheet metal screws to secure the servo in the
servo mount using the servo mounting strap. Install
one screw and only turn it one or two turns, then
install the second screw. Tighten the strap with even
pressure at both the front and back of the servo.
Use care when installing the servo mounting strap.
Over-tightening the strap could stress the wing sheeting
and even push the servo through the top of the wing.
 11. Use string or dental floss to secure a 9-inch
(228mm) servo extension to the lead from the
aileron servo.
 12. Tie the string around the end of the servo lead
as shown.
 13. Carefully pull the aileron servo lead through the
wing using the string tied to it in the previous step.
 14. Repeat Steps 1 through 13 to install the
remaining aileron servo.
