GREAT PLANES Rifle 1M, Instruction Manual

5. Disconnect the servos and guide the leads through 

the channels in the wing out the hole in the middle. Lay the 
servos down inside the wing and position the hatch covers 
just to see how everything fi ts.

❏ 

6. Same as was done for the elevator and elevator horn, 

scuff the sides of both fi berglass 

aileron horns

 around the 

base and the bottom of the ailerons around the slots for the 
horns so glue will adhere. 

❏ 

7. Use tape to hold the root ends of the ailerons centered 

and aligned with the wing. Connect one of the aileron pushrods 
you made to a hole 6mm – 8mm out in the 

left

 aileron servo 

arm and into the 

outer

 hole in one of the aileron horns. 

❏ 

8. Slit the edge of the left hatch cover opening so it can 

be fi t over the pushrod and placed over the hatch. Make sure 

the horn and servo align and that the arm and pushrod are 

centered

 in the opening. If necessary, adjust the bends in 

the ends of the pushrod to achieve this alignment.

❏ 

9. Use 30-minute epoxy to securely glue the aileron horn 

into the aileron.

❏ 

10. Repeat the previous three steps for the right aileron 

servo.

❏ 

11. The same way you glued down the elevator servo, 

clean the aileron servos and the wing skin in the hatches 
with a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol. With the radio 
on and the ailerons centered, glue the servos into position 
with Zap Goo. Temporarily place the hatch covers over the 
servos to make sure the arms and pushrods are centered in 
the openings. Make any adjustments necessary, remove the 
hatches and make sure the servos are pressed down and 
securely glued to the wing skin. Allow the glue to dry overnight.

❏ 

12. Use clear tape to hold the aileron hatch covers to the 

wing.
