7. Make sure that the strut is installed in both

fittings on the wing.

8. Repeat Steps 3 through 7 to install the remaining

wing panel and strut.

9. If you have not already done so, connect the

aileron servo leads to the Y-harness from the

receiver. Fit the top windscreen to the fuselage.

Trim with hobby scissors as necessary to fit it to

the fuselage. For a better fit you can trim the side

edges off of the top windscreen. Use clear tape at

the front and rear to hold the windscreen on.

Control Throws

1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver of your

model. Check the movement of the rudder using

the transmitter. When the stick is moved right,

the rudder should also move right. Reverse the

direction of the servo at the transmitter if necessary.

2. Check the movement of the elevator with the

radio system. Moving the elevator stick toward the

bottom of the transmitter will make the airplane

elevator move up.

3. Check the movement of the ailerons with the

radio system. Moving the aileron stick right will

make the right aileron move up and the left aileron

move down.

4. Use a ruler to adjust the throw of the elevator,

ailerons and rudder.
