3. If you installed a glow engine a cutout is provided for
the receiver on/off switch on the left side of the fuselage. This
cutout is sized for a Futaba mini switch harness (FUTM4370).
If you are installing a different sized switch, you may need to
modify the opening to accommodate your switch. Install your
switch by removing the two screws that hold the front switch
plate to the switch body. Separate the front plate from the
body and reassemble the switch with it in place in the cutout
in the fuselage.

4. Connect your servos (and ESC if used) to the receiver.
Unless you plan to electronically mix your two aileron servos
(and two fl ap servos if applicable) together, you will need a
Y-harness for each pair of servos that you need to join together
into one channel on your receiver. The picture shows a Futaba
dual servo extension (FUTM4130) plugged into the aileron
channel and another plugged into the fl ap channel. As you
did with the aileron servo extensions, use the last piece of 3/8"
[9.5mm] heat shrink tubing to secure the connection between
your receiver battery and switch lead. Take a moment to
bundle the servo wires together and neatly out of the way of
the servos. We used small tie straps (not included) to do this.

5. A 2" [51mm] piece of plastic tubing is provided for
positioning the receiver antennas in the orientation described
in your radio's manual. Cut the piece of tubing into two equal
pieces if your receiver has dual antennas. Glue the tube halves
to the side of the fuselage and insert the antenna ends into
the tubes. The antennas can also be taped in place.

6. The charge lead on the switch harness is used for
charging the receiver battery and for checking battery voltage
before fl ight. This lead could be mounted on the side of the
fuselage using a charge lead receptacle. However, since the
