5. Place the servo into the servo tray. Center the
servo within the tray and drill 1,6mm pilot holes
through the block of wood for each of the four
mounting screws provided with the servo.

thread: carefully pull the thread out. When you
have pulled the servo lead out, remove the
masking tape and the servo lead from the
thread.

INSTALLING THE DIHEDRAL BRACE
1. Look carefully at the surface of each root rib on
both wing halves. Notice how the excess
covering material overlaps onto them. Using a
modeling knife, carefully cut out away the
covering from both root ribs. Iron the covering
down so that it does not pull away from the ribs.
!
It is important that the excess covering be
removed from the root ribs. This will ensure an
adequate wood to wood glue joint.
2. Using a ruler and a pen, locate and mark the
center line of the Aluminum dihedral brace.
Draw the vertical line at this location on each
side of the brace.
Draw a center Line
3. Test fit the dihedral brace into the carton tube in
each wing half. The brace should slide into
each wing half up to the center line. If it does
not, remove the brace and lightly sand the
edges and tips until the proper fit is obtained.
4. Test fit both of the wing halves together with the
dihedral brace temporarily installed. Do not
glue it in at this time! The wing halves should fit
together tight with little or no gaps in the center
section joint. If the center section joint is not
tight, remove the wing halves and lightly sand
the edges and tips of the dihedral brace. Test fit
the wing halves together with the dihedral
brace installed again. Repeat until you are
satisfied with the fit of the wing halves. The
proper dihedral is built into the two root ribs and
should not be altered.
5. When satisfied with the fit of the wing halves,
remove the wing halves and the dihedral brace.
