3. Position the engine on the mount so that the face of the

drive washer is 4-7/8" to 5" [124mm to 127mm] in front of
the firewall (F1). Mark the position of the engine mounting
holes onto the mount. A Great Planes Dead Center Hole
Locator (GPMR8130) works great for this. Remove the
engine from the mount.

4. Drill the engine mount at the marks with a 7/64"

[2.8mm] drill and then tap the holes with a 6-32 tap. Mount
the engine onto the mount using four 6-32 x 3/4" [19mm]
SHCS and four #6 lock washers. Use Great Planes Pro
Threadlocker on the SHCS and tighten them.

5. Locate a 1/16 x 36" [914mm] music wire and cut it in

half. Insert the 18" [457mm] music wire into the throttle
plastic outer pushrod. Bend the wire as necessary so that it
reaches your carburetor. Connect the music wire to the
carburetor arm using a screw-lock pushrod connector. Use
Great Planes Pro Threadlocker on the screw-lock SHCS
and tighten it.

6. Connect the throttle music wire to the throttle servo

arm with a screw-lock pushrod connector as shown above.
Use Great Planes Pro Threadlocker on the screw-lock
SHCS and tighten it.
