STEp 17: inSTALLinG THE cEnTRE WinG pAnEL
IMPORTANT Below we describe the layout of the servo extensions. We've done it in a way to make it more convenient when
assembling the aircraft. All the servo leads feed into the fuselage, where the receiver will be located. The servo leads then run through
the centre wing panel and into each of the nacelles to plug into the throttle servos. Other servo leads run through the centre wing
panel and out the tips to plug into the aileron and the flap servos. This allows easy plug-in installation of all the servo leads when
assembling the nacelles, fuselage and the outer wing panels. All the servo extension leads stay in the centre wing panel.
q Holes are precut in the bottom of the centre wing panel to run your servo extension leads through. The hole in the top of the centre
wing panel is for the optional retract air lines. Run the servo extensions through the centre wing panel as listed below:
Throttles: One Y-Harness and two 305mm (12") extensions from the centre hole to the outer holes
Ailerons: One Y-Harness and two 305mm (12") extensions from the centre hole to the tips
Flaps: One Y-Harness and two 305mm (12") extensions from the centre hole to the tips
q Mount the centre wing panel onto the fuselage, using the two socket-cap screws and two washers provided.
STEp 18: inSTALLinG THE HATcH covER
IMPORTANT The hatch cover is held in place using two hatch latches. One is installed in the front of the hatch cover and
the other is installed in the fuselage, at the back of the hatch cover.
q Glue each of the two dowels into the machine gun turret, then secure the
machine gun turret to the hatch cover, using the wood screw provided.
q Cut a slot through the top front of the hatch cover for the latch handle,
then drill a hole for the latch pin through the plywood support bulkhead
5mm (/4") down from the top of the hatch cover. Make sure that the slot
and hole are both centred at the top of the hatch cover.
q Check the fit for smooth operation, then glue the hatch latch to the inside of
the hatch cover, making sure not to get any glue in the latch mechanism.
q Install the second hatch latch into the top of the fuselage (at the back of
the hatch cover), using the same techniques that you used to install the first
hatch latch into the top of the hatch cover.
