1. Mount the wheels to the landing gear wire, holding

them on with the short plastic tubes.

2. Insert the landing gear wire into the slot in the bottom of

the fuselage. This is easier to do if you squeeze the sides of
the wire together as you insert the wire into the fuselage.
Note: The landing gear is securely held in the slot by spring
tension, making it easy to remove if required. For a permanent
installation, put some epoxy into the slot.

3. Glue the tail skid wire to the bottom rear of the fuselage.

1. Install the rudder and elevator servos into the fuselage

mount using the grommets, eyelets and screws provided
with your servos. Enlarge the mounting area as needed to fit
your servos. Note: Be sure to route the servo wires through
the hole in the fuselage and out the bottom.

2. Connect a 12" [305mm] servo extension wire to the

rudder and elevator servos. Use tape or shrink tubing to hold
the connections securely together. Route these wires in the
channel already cut in the bottom of the fuselage. This must
be done neatly so that the filler strip can be installed in the
next step.

3. Using foam safe CA, install the 3/16" x 1/4" x 12-3/4"

[4.8 x 6.4 x 324mm] foam filler strip in the channel to cover
the servo wires and hold them in place.
