Install the Canopy and Main Gear

1. Remove the tape holding the canopy to the fuse.
Cutting small amounts at a time with sharp scissors, fit the
canopy. When satisfied with the fit, glue the canopy in place
with canopy glue.
2. Push one plastic wheel collar on each axle.
3. Slide the wheels on the axles and hold them in place
with the 2 remaining wheel collars.
4. Remove the covering from the landing gear slot in the
bottom of the fuse.
5. Fit the landing gear in the fuse. Lock the gear in place
by gluing the 1/16" x 7/8" x 2" [1.6x22x50mm] balsa sheet in
the landing gear slot.

Install the Servos and Pushrods

1. Bend one end of both wire pushrods to the shape
shown in the sketch.
2. Slide the straight end of the pushrods into the fuselage
through the front of the pushrod tubes.
3. Fit two servos in the fuse. Plug the servos into your
receiver. Turn on the transmitter and receiver to center the
servos. Attach the pushrods to the servo arms. Making sure
not to preload the pushrods, mount the servos to the servo
tray with the hardware provided with your radio. Turn the
transmitter and receiver off.
4. Being careful not to push the pushrod tubes, glue the
balsa servo pushrod support to the former behind the servos.
