Section 14: Installing the Nose Landing
Step 5
Mount the nose gear assembly in place using the screws and
blind nuts provided. Use threadlock on the threads to prevent
them from backing out.
Step 6
Install the recommended servo hardware (grommets and
eyelets) supplied with your radio system onto the nose wheel
steering servo. Mount the servo into the servo mount as
shown. Drill 1/16" pilot holes at the mounting screw locations.
Step 7
Locate the nose wheel steering wire threaded on one end and
install a clevis onto the threaded end. Slide the wire through
the slot in the former and firewall and connect the clevis to the
steering servo arm.

Step 8
With the steering servo centered and the steering arm 3/4" from
the firewall, mark the wire where it crosses over the outer hole
in the arm. Make an L-bend at that mark and trim of the excess
wire 5/16" from the bend. Secure the wire to the steering arm
using an L-bend wire keeper.
Step 9
Test the steering for proper direction. The right rudder will turn
the nose wheel to the right and opposite for left rudder input.
Note: The steering servo is connected to the
rudder channel via a Y-harness.
