3. Plug the motor wires into the speed control. Secure the

speed control to the bottom of the motor box using hook

and loop tape.

4. This photo shows the installation of the 480 motor.

Simply follow Steps 1 through 3, only using the 480

motor instead of the 450 motor.

5. Turn on the radio system and plug the battery into the

speed control. Use the throttle to check that the motor

rotates counterclockwise when viewed from the front. If

not, follow the directions included with your speed control

to change the direction of the motor rotation.

Note: Never check the motor rotation on the bench

with the propeller installed. The plane could move and

cause serious injury. Always check the motor without the

propeller to avoid injury.
