5. How to install the aileron servos
Install the extension servo cables into the wing. Connect the extension cables to the servos
(connectors or soldering -in this case isolate the wires using the heat shrinking tube). Attach the
control horns to the ailerons. Fix the ailerons in the neutral position using pieces of a self-
adhesive tape. Install single levers to the servos, adjust them to the neutral position and insert the
servos into the holders - without fixing them now. Prepare 2 rods made of 1mm diameter wire
with „Z"- bend on one end ,measure and cut the wires to the proper lengths and solder the brass
endings. Screw in the clevises. Remove the servos, insert the „Z"-bend into the servo lever, and
fix the servos in the holders using a quality double-side self adhesive tape or 5-min. epoxy.
Connect the pushrods to the control horns. Attach the servo covers using a double-sided self
adhesive tape.
