Step 1
Wrap the receiver battery and receiver in 1/4" foam.
Attach the receiver and battery to the battery tray
using Velcro straps to secure the receiver.
Step 2
Mount the receiver switch in a convenient location in
the side of the fuselage.
Step 3
Mount the throttle servo using the hardware provided
with the servo. Plug the servo into the receiver and
attach the servo arm to the throttle servo.
Note
: If using a DA-50 and canister exhaust,
epoxy the two hardwood standoffs under the
servo to raise it away from the canister. The
servo mounts directly onto the standoffs.
Step 4
Move the servo to the throttle open position using
the radio system. Manually move the throttle arm on
the carburetor to the open position. Mark the pushrod
where it crosses the servo arm. Make a 90-degree
bend in the wire and install it into the servo arm.
Step 5
Check the movement of the throttle to verify there
is no binding at either low or high throttle. If there
is, make the necessary adjustment to eliminate any
binding. Secure the pushrod using a pushrod keeper
when all adjustments are complete.
