Wipe away excess epoxy using a paper towel soaked
with denatured alcohol. Use an upward rolling motion
as you wipe the excess epoxy to lift it from the surface.
This helps reduce smearing the epoxy.
Check the alignment along the hinge line as you did
when you test fit the control horn. Reposition as
needed.
Allow the epoxy to partially cure. Peel away the
masking tape after the epoxy is securely holding the
control horn in place and still soft enough to easily
remove the tape. Set the wing aside and let the epoxy
fully cure.

Aileron Servo Installation

Connect the servo to a receiver and power supply.
Turn on your transmitter. Set trim and sub trim to zero.
Install a servo arm on the servo about perpendicular to
the servo's side. Use the transmitter's sub trim to make
it exactly perpendicular to the side of the servo. Be sure
to setup one arm to the left and one arm to the right.
Connect a servo extension wire to the servo lead. Use a
safety clip to secure the connection. Attach the servo
extension wire to the installation string and gently pull
the wire through the wing as you insert the servo into
the wing.
Insert the servo into the pocket with the drive spline
towards the front of the wing. Pre-drill for the servo
mounting screws using a 1/16" drill. Remove the servo
and apply a drop of thin CA glue into each mounting
screw hole. This will harden the wood around the
screws and provide a more secure installation. Allow
the CA glue to dry before reinstalling the servo.
