6. If you wish to install the optional aileron servo cover, glue 

it into position now. The cover assists slightly in holding the 
aileron servo into position and fi lls most of the empty space 
around the servo simply for appearances, but if your aileron 
servo is securely glued into position the cover is not necessary.

7. Use a piece of medium-grit sandpaper to roughen all 

four of the wire 

Z-bend pushrod ends

. 

❏ 

8. Install a Z-bend pushrod wire end into two of the control 

horns. Fit, but 

do not glue

 the horns into the slots in the 

ailerons, then slip pieces of the included shrink tubing over 
the pushrod ends and the aileron pushrods.

❏ 

9. Make a small “clamp” from the piece of leftover foam from 

the aileron servo cutout that was in the top half of the fuselage. 

❏ 

10. Place the “clamp” you made in the previous step over 

the end of one of the ailerons and the fuselage to hold the 
aileron centered. With the aileron servo connected to your 
receiver and transmitter still on, add a drop or two of thin 
CA to the pushrod wire and the pushrod, slide the shrink 
tubing into position, then use a medium-duty soldering iron 
or an adjustable soldering iron on medium heat to shrink 
the tubing — be diligent to work the tip of the iron all the way 
around the tubing, touching it from all angles. Of course, keep 
the soldering iron away from the foam.

11. Connect the other aileron pushrod to the other aileron 

horn the same way.
