3)
Dry fit the motor onto the top of the main wing by inserting the motor mounting pins into the pre-
cut alignment holes in the wing with the prop located inside the open slot. Route the motor wires
around the slot and to the brick and cut the micro wire to the proper length. Solder the motor
plug onto the micro wire and cover with heat shrink tube. Use small pieces of clear packing tape or
glue to secure the motor wires around the slot. Plug the completed, longer motor wire into the
brick.
4)
Use glue to secure the motor to the airframe. Let glue cure fully before proceeding. Secure all
loose wires with tape or glue around the prop slot to ensure it is not damaged by the prop.
5)
Attach a piece of hook and loop material to the side of the fuse, under the canopy for battery
mounting and adjustment.
6)
Secure the push rod z-bends to the carbon rods by using glue and heat shrink tube. Adjust the
control rod length and then shrink the heat shrink tube to “lock” the z-bend wire in place to ensure
that the elevator and rudder are straight with the main wing and vertical stabilizer. Once the rod
length is set, install the control rods to the brick and control horns then attach the unglued control
horn to the z-bend and then glue the assembly in place.
