15. Hook up the clevises on the aileron
control horns. Install the pushrods on the
servo arm with the black snap-on
connectors. Once the servo is power
centered, it may be necessary to remove
the servo arm and center it on the spline.
Adjustment can be made in the clevis on
the threaded rod to neutralize the ailerons
if necessary.
16. The holes for the wing hold down
bolts are pre-drilled however; you must
remove the covering over them, top and
bottom side. Cut them open with a sharp
Exacto knife or better yet, use a micro tip
soldering iron to burn them open. This is
by far the easiest way with the best
results.
17. Locate the wing hold down plate,
turn it over striking a centerline. Partially
cut through the plate with a knife or Zona
razor saw. Now “crack” it slightly to match
the dihedral of the wing.
18. Position the plate on the wing and
draw a line around it with a felt tip pen.
Using a sharp Exacto knife, carefully
remove the covering 3/32” in from the line
all the way around.
19. Glue the plate on with thick CA glue.
Turn the wing over and match drill the
holes through the plate with a 3/16” drill
bit. Use the soldering iron micro-tip to
clean up the holes on the plate.
20. Install the wing on the fuselage using
the long bolts and plastic washers. Check
to see that it
fits properly.
