INSTALL THE MOTOR, ESC,

RECEIVER, & BATTERY

1. Remove the three backplate screws, the brass collar

set screw, and apply thread locking compound to the screw
threads and reinstall the screws. Install the prop adapter
shown. Apply thread locking compound to the screws and
tighten them.

2. Install the motor to the fi rewall using thread locking

compound, three 3mm x 8mm machine screws, and three
3mm lock washers.

3. Mix up a small amount of epoxy or spread a thin layer of

medium CA on the inside surface of the bottom of the fuselage
where you want to stick your ESC. Allow it to fully cure.

4. Cut a 1" [25.4mm] length of adhesive backed hook-

and-loop material and apply the loop side (fuzzy side) to the
back of your ESC. Attach the hook side to that and peel off
the backing paper to expose the adhesive. Stick the ESC into
position as shown.

5. Fit three 3.5mm to 2mm bullet connector adapters

(GPMM3122) to the ESC leads and connect the ESC to
the motor.

6. Using the same method as you did for the ESC to

prepare the battery tray, cut a 1" [25.4mm] length of adhesive
backed hook-and-loop material and apply the hook side
to the aft battery tray as shown. Stick the loop side to your
receiver and connect the servo leads and ESC signal lead to
it. Attach the receiver to the battery tray.
