Note: If you installed the optional charge receptacle for the
aileron servo the servo extension coming from it should be
plugged into the aileron channel. If no charge receptacle
was installed for the aileron, the 6" [152mm] extension
should be connected to the aileron channel and the other
end should be left loose in the radio compartment.

12. Make a small hole through the bottom of the fuselage
and route the radio antenna to the aft fuselage. Be sure that
there is a strain relief on the antenna to keep stress off the
solder joint inside the receiver. Use a small rubber band to
keep the antenna extended.
Note: If you chose to install a charge receptacle for the
aileron servo lead, follow the next step. Otherwise skip it.

13. A 6" [152mm] servo lead extension is used on this
model to connect the aileron servos with the receiver. This
servo lead connects the “Y” harness at the bottom of the top
wing with the charge receptacle previously installed at the
base of the front left cabane strut as shown. The servo
extension can be attached with tape or it can be
permanently held in place with silicone glue. To make it more
difficult to spot, you can use dark red LustreKote to paint the
servo lead the same color as the cabane.
Note: If you chose not to install the charge receptacle for the
aileron servo, follow the following step. Otherwise skip it.

14. Find the mid wing. Feel through the MonoKote and
find a hole by the left side of the ABS cover. Cut away the
MonoKote both in the top and bottom surface of the mid
wing. The aileron's 6" [152mm] servo extension in the radio
compartment should come out this hole and another 6"
[152mm] servo extension should be used to connect the top
wing's “Y” harness to this. The servo extension should be
attached to the left's cabane aft leg with tape or silicone
glue. You can paint the extension in dark red to make it more
difficult to spot.
