1. Place the servo into the servo tray, positioning it on the

right side of the fuselage. Drill 1/16" [1.6mm] holes for the
servo screws. Install the servo into the servo tray with the
hardware provided with your radio system.

2. Install the screw-lock connector and 2mm washer into

the outermost hole of the servo arm. Apply a drop of thread-
locker to the threads. Then tighten the 2mm knurled nut onto
the connector.

3. Install the elevator pushrod wire through the hole at the

back of the fuselage, sliding it into the servo compartment
and through the hole in the screw-lock connector.

4. Install a nylon control horn onto the Z-bend of the

pushrod wire. Install the control horn the same way as was
done with the ailerons.

5. Center the servo. Then tighten the set screw onto the

pushrod wire.

1. Assemble the fuel tank as shown in the sketch. When

tightening the center screw be sure not to over tighten it. You
just want it snug enough to pull the rubber stopper tight
against the tank.

2. Position your engine on the engine mount so that the

distance from the back of the mount to the front of the thrust
washer is 3-1/4" [83mm]. Drill a 3/32" [2.4mm] hole through
each of the mounting holes of the engine into the engine
mount. Mount the engine to the mount with four 3 x 15mm
self tapping screws and 3mm flat washers.
