Install the Aileron Servos & Pushrods
Before completing this section, confi rm that the servos that you
will be using will properly fi t between the servo mounting block
locations on the aileron servo hatch covers. Make adjustments
as necessary for your brand servos. The block locations shown
in this section will fi t a standard size Futaba brand servo.
❏
1. Drill a 1/16" [1.6mm] hole through the aileron servo hatch
covers in the center of each etched rectangle on the inside of
the covers.
❏
2. Use epoxy to glue the 11/16" x 11/16" x 5/16" [18mm x
18mm x 8mm] hardwood servo mounting blocks to the insides
of the hatch covers. Be sure that the blocks are aligned over
the rectangles with the grain direction perpendicular to the
covers as shown. Allow the epoxy to cure undisturbed.
❏
3. With the epoxy completely cured from step 2, continue the
1/16" [1.6mm] holes in the hatch covers through the mounting
blocks approximately 3/8" [9.5mm] deep. Thread a #2 x 3/8"
[9.5mm] fl at head wood screw into each hole and back it out.
Apply a drop of thin CA glue to each hole to harden the wood.
When the CA glue has dried, thread a #2 x 3/8" [9.5mm] fl at
head screw into each of the four holes.

servo and secure the connector using tape or heat shrink
tubing (not included). Center the servos with your radio
system and install the servo arms to the servos perpendicular
to the servo cases as shown. Be sure to reinstall the servo
arm screws into the servos.

6. Position the servos against the underside of the aileron
servo hatch covers between the mounting blocks. Drill 1/16"
[1.6mm] holes through the mounting tabs on the servo cases
into the blocks. Thread a servo mounting screw (included
