Before starting the installation of the servos, it is

recommended to center the trims and sticks on your

transmitter. If you are using a computer radio, make

sure to reset a model memory and name it for this

particular model. We also recommend binding the

transmitter and receiver at this time following the

instructions provided with your radio system.

1. Prepare the aileron servo by installing the rubber

grommets and brass eyelets as described in the

servo instructions.

2. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to thread a

servo mounting screw in each of the four servo

mounting holes. This will cut threads into the

surrounding wood.

3. Apply 2–3 drops of thin CA in each of the servo

mounting holes. This will harden the threads in

the surrounding wood, which will help prevent the

screws from vibrating loose.

4. Carefully remove the string from the servo

pocket. Make sure not to pull the string loose from

the center of the wing. Tie the end of the string

around the servo lead near the connector.
