Hook Up the Ailerons (Dual Servo Option)
You can do both servos simultaneously, or do them one
at a time as described below:
SERVO OPENING
IN WING
CUT THE COVERING 1/8" [3mm]
FROM THE EDGES OF THE OPENING.
SLIT THE COVERING UP TO THE
CORNERS.
❏
1. Cut the covering from one (or both) of the aileron servo
openings in the bottom of the wings. The “neatest” way is to
cut the covering 1/8" [3mm] inside the opening, cut slits up to
the corners, and then use a trim iron to seal the edges down
inside the openings. Or, just cut the covering up to the edges.
❏
2. Connect a 6" [150mm] servo extension to the aileron
servo and secure the connection with a 1-1/2" [40mm] piece of
heat shrink tubing included with this kit—shrink the tubing with
a heat gun or a hobby torch—use care not to scorch the wires!
❏
3. Use the string in the wing to pull the servo extension
out the end and place the aileron servo in the wing. Drill
1/16" [1.6mm] holes for the servo mounting screws.
❏
4. Temporarily mount the servo with the screws that came
with it. Remove the screws and take out the servo. Add a few
drops of thin CA to each screw hole. Wait a minute for the
CA to harden and remount the servo. Don’t overtighten the
servo mounting screws—just make sure the heads of the
screws apply a little pressure to the grommets and that the
servo is secure.
