
Step 1
Remove the fuselage hatch from the fuselage by lifting it
up at the rear to release the magnets. Slide the hatch to the
rear of the fuselage to release the pegs at the front and set it
aside.

Step 2
Remove the access cover for the tail wheel from the
fuselage. Set it aside with the fuselage hatch.
Note: Steps 3 through 6 are for mounting the switch
harness and receiver battery for glow-powered models.
If you are preparing your model for electric power, you
can skip to Step 7 and mount the receiver.

Step 3
Use a hobby knife to remove the balsa from the side of the
fuselage for mounting your particular switch. The plywood
will have the correct cut out for the most common switches
available.

Step 4
Place your switch harness into the appropriate hole. Use a
pin drill and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill the two holes
necessary to mount the switch to the fuselage.
