Mount The Landing Gear - GREAT PLANES Ryan STA Instruction Manual

Refer to this photo for the following two steps.
4. Drill 1/16" holes in the wing for mounting the aileron
servo. Add a few drops of thin CA to the holes and allow to
harden, then mount the servo to the wing. Note that, for the
right aileron servo shown in the photo, the servo arm points
towards the middle of the wing and the output shaft on the
servo is toward the trailing edge of the wing. When
instructed to mount the left aileron servo, it should "mirror"
the right servo with the servo arm pointing toward the middle
of the wing and the output shaft toward the trailing edge.
5. Make the aileron pushrod as shown in the photo using
a 2-56 x 6" threaded one-end pushrod, a nylon clevis, a
large nylon control horn, two #2 x 1/2" screws, a nylon
Faslink and a silicone retainer. After drilling 1/16" holes in
the aileron for the #2 x 1/2" screws, harden the holes by
adding a few drops of thin CA and allowing it to harden
before mounting the control horn. After you make the "L"
bend in the pushrod wire for the nylon Faslink, trim the end
of the wire so that approximately 1/16" protrudes from the
Faslink as shown in the sketch. If necessary, enlarge the
holes in the servo arm with a #48 (or 5/64") drill.
6. Mount the left aileron servo and connect it to the left
aileron the same way. Be certain you've installed the screws
that hold the servo arms to the servos when you're done
hooking up the ailerons!

Mount the Landing Gear

Do the right one first so yours looks like the photos.
1. Cut the covering from the grooves in the landing
gear rails in the bottom of the right wing panel. Trim the aft
rail (as indicated by the arrow in the photo) to accommodate
the aft strut where it "angles up" toward the main strut. Trim
the edge of the hole in the forward rail (as indicated by the
arrow in the photo) to accommodate the bend in the main
strut. Test fit the right landing gear into the wing.
2. Place an axle on the landing gear so it is parallel
with the leading edge of the wing. Temporarily tighten a
6-32 x 1/4" cap screw that holds the axle on.
3. Loosen the screw and remove the axle from the
landing gear. Remove the landing gear from the wing. File a
flat spot on the landing gear where the screw made its mark.
