If it is diffi cult to insert both landing gear legs through the
landing gear support, use a hobby knife to enlarge the hole

other. Apply foam-safe CA to the joint between the landing
gear support and the landing gear legs and the horizontal
fuselage and the landing gear legs.

3. Place a small piece of loop (soft) side of the self adhesive
hook and loop material to the back of the ESC and the receiver.

4. Place a piece of hook (rough) material under the
fuselage, close to the front. Route the motor leads through
the fuselage and connect them to the motor. Attach the ESC
to the hook material.
