INSTALL THE SERVOS

1. Remove the servo arm screws and the servo arms from

all three of your servos. Use your radio to center the servos.
Retain the servo arm screws.

2. Place one drop of foam-safe CA on the bottom of the

servo mounting tabs. Install the rudder servo on the right
side of the fuselage with the output shaft facing aft. Guide
the servo leads forward through the fuselage and apply a
bead of CA along the side of the servo case where it meets
the fuselage.

3. Install the elevator servo on the left side of the

fuselage with the output shaft facing aft. Guide the servo
leads forward through the fuselage. Note: The aileron servo
will be installed later.

4. Locate the longest servo arms that came with your

servos. Since we used Futaba 3114 micro servos, we chose
the optional fi ve-hole “X” arms that Futaba supplied with each
servo. With the elevator and rudder servos centered, test fi t
the servo arm to fi nd the long arm that aligns perpendicular
with the servo case. Clip off the other unused arms and
temporarily fi t each arm to each servo with the arm facing
down. Do not install the servo arm screw yet.

PUSHROD & CONTROL HORN

INSTALLATION

Install the Control Horns

1. Locate two control horns. Turn your model over and

install one control horn to the bottom of the left elevator.
Apply a bead of thin foam-safe CA around the base of the
control horn.
