11. Install the battery and receiver as shown. Place 1/4"

thick foam under the receiver and battery, holding it in place
with the Velcro

®

material included with the kit.

12. Use an arm cut from a servo horn to make an

antenna strain relief as shown. Insert the receiver antenna
into the white antenna tube. Hold it to the fuselage by
placing a small rubber band around the tail wheel and the
end of the antenna.

1. We installed a ¼ scale Williams Brothers “Sportsman”

pilot (WBRQ2626). Because the Little Toni was such a small
racer, the head of the pilot is all that is required. To fit the
head you will have to sand a small portion of the chin from
the pilot figure.

2. Trim the canopy on the molded cut lines. The canopy

can be glued to the fuselage or screwed in place. If you look
inside the fuselage you will see four plywood mounting
blocks pre-installed for this purpose. Drill 1/16" [1.6mm]
holes into the cowl and the blocks. Hold the canopy in place
with four #2 x 3/8" [10mm] screws and four flat washers. If
you choose to glue the canopy in place, RC 56 canopy glue
works well for this application.

3. Install the propeller that is best suited to your engine. The

included spinner utilizes a frame that secures the spinner to the
back plate, eliminating the need for a special nut for the engine
crankshaft. Secure the back plate and the prop with the prop
nuts that came with your engine. Hold the spinner to the back
plate with the 4mm socket head cap screw.
