1. Locate the switch plate that fi ts your brand of radio switch.
Four plates are supplied: two Futaba switch & Ernst charge
jacks and two Hobbico heavy-duty & Ernst charge jacks. Fit
your switch and charge jack to the plate and use a pen or
pencil to draw an outline of the switch and jack onto the back
side of the plate. Remove the switch and charge jack.
2. Use two 7 x 22mm and two 6 x 29mm sticks to make a
fl ange for the charge plate.
3. Install the switch plate on the model using epoxy. For
C.G. reasons, the radio equipment is mounted in the aft
equipment bay. A cutout for the switch plate is provided in the
left and right rear fuselage. You may choose either location.
4. Tack down the covering over the switch plate using a
covering iron set to a low temperature.
