Installing The Aileron Servos - Hangar 9 P-51 Mustang ARF Instruction Manual

Section 3

Installing the Aileron Servos

Step 4. Place the aileron servo between the mounting blocks
and using a felt-tipped pen mark the location of the four servo
mounting screws. Note that the servo must not touch the hatch
in order to isolate engine vibration.
Step 5.
Note: Before mounting the servo, we suggest that
you electronically center the aileron servos and install
the servo arm to avoid having to remove the servo to
mount the servo arm in subsequent steps.
Remove the servo and using a 1/16" drill bit, drill the four servo
mount screw holes marked in the previous step. Using the
screws supplied with your radio system, mount the servo to the
mounting blocks.
Step 6. Locate the aileron servo lead extension (18") (JRPA099)
and connect it to the aileron servo lead. Secure the connectors
by tying them in a knot or use a commercial connector that pre-
vents the servo lead connections from becoming disconnected.
Hint: It is always a good idea to secure the servo
connectors and servo extension together to prevent
the wires from becoming unplugged inside the wing.

Step 7. Locate the preinstalled string in the servo hatch opening
and tie it to the servo lead extension connector. Locate the other
end of the string in the exit hole you uncovered in Step 1 and
carefully fish the servo lead and extension through the wing.
Note: Tape the servo extension connector to the
topside of the wing to prevent the connector from
slipping back into the wing structure.
