 6. Use hobby scissors to cut four pieces of
cardstock that are 1/4-inch x 2-inch (6mm x
50mm). Use low-tack tape to attach them on the
fuselage so they align with the cowl mounting tabs
on the fuselage.
 7. Slide the cowling in position, making sure the
cardstock is on the outside of the cowling.
 8. Install the propeller on the adapter. Follow the
instructions provided with the motor to secure the
propeller to the motor.
Use low-tack tape to keep the cowl in
position while drilling the holes.
 9. Position the cowling so the front of the motor
is centered in the opening of the cowl and that
the propeller does not rub against the cowl. The
cowling should be slid just far enough back that
it does not cover the battery tray on the bottom
of the plane. If the cowling needs to be located
farther back than this, the motor will need to be
slid forward in the mount. Sight the cowling from
the front and the side to make sure that it is aligned
correctly to the fuselage. Use a pin vise and 1/16-
inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill the four holes for the
cowl mounting screws.
 10. Use a #0 Phillips screwdriver to install the four
1.5mm x 7mm sheet metal screws that secure the
cowl to the fuselage.
Use a brown sharpie marker to go over the
orange prop in a smooth curved pattern to get
a simulated wood finish on the propeller.
