5. Apply a small spot of foam-safe CA to the bottom of the control horn and insert it into the cut in the aileron. Press a nylon backplate on the backside of the control horn as shown.

6. Install a black nylon snap keeper onto the pushrod at the control horn.

7. Install the rudder and elevator pushrods in the same way as the ailerons. Use the 5-3/4" [146 mm] prebent pushrod for the rudder and the 2-1/2" [64 mm] prebent pushrod for the elevator.

Install the Motor & Speed Control

1. Connect the output wires of your ESC to the motor. Check the direction of the motor before permanently installing it.

2. Install the ESC as shown using a small section of hook and loop tape. Place the hard “hook” side in the provided cutout in the fuselage and the softer “loop” side on the back of the ESC. If your ESC has a BEC switch, install it in the provided cutout. For some electronic speed controls, it may be necessary to trim the foam slightly to allow for wire clearance and switch mounting.

3. Slide the gearbox onto the square wood stick in the nose. Secure it with the supplied #2 x 3/8" [9.5 mm] screw.
