bay cover . Use a T-pin to poke holes though the covering and
fit each servo bay cover to its wing . Use a 1/16" [1 .6mm] drill
bit to drill four holes to attach the aileron servo bay covers
to the wing .

11 . Locate eight #2 x 3/8" [9 .5mm] sheet-metal screws

and eight #2 flat washers . Thread these into the holes you

harden the screw holes with thin CA .

13 . Working with one wing now, make a mark using

a felt-tip pen directly behind the aileron servo arm . Use a
builder’s triangle or builder’s square to ensure that you mark
directly behind the servo arm .

14 . Locate one

nylon control horn . Discard the

backing plate that is attached to it . Center the horn along
the line you made . Center the horn fore and aft so that the
holes are directly above the hinge line (see sketch above) .
Use a 1/16" [1 .6mm] drill to drill two 1/2" [13mm] deep holes
for the control horn .

Note: Do not drill through the aileron

completely . You may wrap a piece of masking tape around
the drill bit 1/2" [13mm] from the tip to act as a drill stop .
