o o 3 . Assemble the throttle and choke servo tray as
shown . Note: Two triangle support pieces are supplied to
support the tray . Please glue these in later after you have
installed the tray in the fuse .
o o 4 . Assemble the two pushrod standoffs as shown .
Four other standoffs are provided for you as well as spacers
so you can support the throttle and choke pushrod tubes
as needed .
o o 5 . Install the servo tray and your throttle servo . Note:
The servo tray can be offset to the right or left to suit your
installation . Install the
two triangle supports accordingly .
o o 6 . Lightly sand the outside of the 36" [914mm] throttle
outer pushrod tube . Route the tube and fit the standoffs . Cut
the tube to length .
o o 7 . Screw a 2-56 x 6" [152mm] one-end threaded rod
into a 36" [914mm] flexible inner pushrod tube . Make a 90°
bend in the unthreaded end of the rod to help you screw the
rod in . Screw it in so that most of the threads are engaged .
o o 8 . Cut the steel rod down so that it measures 1-1/2"
[38mm] from the end of the plastic tube . Solder a brass
threaded coupler onto the end of the pushrod . Thread on
a 2-56 hex nut, a silicone retainer, and a steel clevis . Note:
A soldering iron should not be used as this is too slow to
heat the joint and will cause the pushrod tube to melt . Use a
hobby torch with only enough heat to get the solder to flow .
