  Step 1
Install an 24" (610mm) servo extension onto an elevator
servo. Tie the servo leads together, using a commercially
available connector, or use unwaxed dental floss to secure
the extensions to prevent them from coming loose during
flight. If using a Y-harness, install one side only of the
Y-harness to one of the servos, also tying knots to prevent
disconnection. The other servo will be hooked up to the
Y-harness when installed in the airplane. One elevator
servo will need to be a reversed-direction servo.
  Step 2
Install the servo in the fuselage tail section with the output
shaft to the rear of the fuselage. Drill 1/16" pilot holes
before installing the screws. Using the screws included
with the servos, fasten the servos in place.
  Step 3
Mix a small amount of 30-minute epoxy and lightly coat
the inside of the hole in the elevator and the 8-32 x 2
