PREPARATIONS

❏

1. If you have not done so already, remove the major

parts of the kit from the box and inspect for damage. If any

parts are damaged or missing, contact Product Support at

the address or telephone number listed in the “Kit Inspection”

section on the opposite page.

❏

2. Remove the tape and separate all the control surfaces

if not pre-hinged. Use a covering iron with a covering sock

on high heat to tighten the covering if necessary. Apply

pressure over sheeted areas to thoroughly bond the

covering to the wood.

ASSEMBLE THE WINGS

Note: Servos in the top wing are optional. The installation

of the servos is the same procedure for the top and bottom

wings. The top wing is shown in the following steps. The

same procedure should be used to install the servos into the

bottom wing.

❏

1. If you plan to install servos into the top wing, trim the

covering from the servo arm slots in the servo hatch covers

using a sharp hobby knife. If you plan to connect the upper

and lower ailerons with pushrods and have all four ailerons

controlled by the two servos in the bottom wing, then do

not trim the covering from the top wing hatch covers. Skip

to step #9. After step #9, complete the bottom wing servo

installation as described in step #14.

CUT OFF UNUSED ARMS

❏ ❏

2. Cut three arms from a four-armed servo arm for

each aileron servo. Enlarge the outer hole of each remaining

arm with a 5/64" [2mm] drill bit.

❏ ❏

3. Attach a 12" [305mm] servo extension to each

aileron servo and secure the connector using tape or heat

shrink tubing (not included). Center the servos with your radio

system and install the servo arms to the servos perpendicular

to the servo cases as shown. Be sure to reinstall the servo

arm screws into the servos. Install the rubber grommets and

eyelets onto the servo mounting tabs.

❏ ❏

4. Position the servos onto the aileron servo hatch

covers with the servo arms centered in the openings. Place

an aileron servo mounting block behind each servo mounting

tab and mark their locations onto the hatch covers.
