8. Make a battery strap by cutting the hook and loop

material 7-1/4" [184mm] long, overlapping the ends 1-1/2"
[38mm]. Glue the strap to the underside of the battery tray
with medium or thick CA as shown.

9. Glue the battery tray into the fuse by keying the tab into

the third former and resting the forward end on the fuel tank
opening and the triangle stock you glued in step 8. Apply a
liberal amount of medium or thick CA glue to the mating
surfaces to ensure a very secure battery tray. Cut another
piece of triangle stock and glue it against the aft end of the
tray and the former.

10. Glue the brushless radio tray to the spars in the

location shown.

11. Cut a piece of 1/4" [6mm] or 1/2" [13mm] foam rubber

(not included) to fit your receiver. Hook one of the included
rubber bands onto the tab on the brushless radio tray and
feed the other end above the tray and out of the throttle
servo bay. Place your receiver and foam rubber onto the
brushless radio tray and loop the rubber band over the
receiver and hook it onto the tab.

12. Trim the covering from the cooling hole cutout on the

front underside of the fuse.

13. Locate the three ESC tray pieces. Glue the small pieces

together and then glue them into the slot in the large piece.
