EScale Grob G103C - Instruction Manual

13.  Using a servo tester or receiver, check for 

smooth operation of the spoilers.  You may 
have to adjust  slightly to ensure the spoiler 
operates smoothly.

 

The picture opposite shows a small section 
being removed from the end of the spoiler 
blade..

14.  The spoiler is retained in the wing by two 

small cross head screws.

15.  Check the plastic cap strip for fi t then glue in 

place using fl exible CA or epoxy.

 

Rough up the underside of the cap strip with 
coarse sandpaper or a fi le to aid adhesion.

 

Be careful not get glue around the edges of 
the cap strip or in the spoiler mechanism.

16.  Your completed spoiler should now sit fl at 

with the wing surface.

 

Repeat  steps 9-15 for the other wing.

 

We recommend you run a separate BEC or 
receiver battery if you fi t the optional spoilers 
as the current drain when operating the 
spoilers may exceed the built in BEC of many 
electronic speed controllers.
