9. Receiver Installation.

Connect the speed controller to the throttle channel of your receiver, (not included). This wire is easily

identified, it is the only one that is routed from the front of the model.

Connect the rudder and elevator servos to the corresponding channel outputs of the receiver and

connect the one remaining lead from the circuit board to the aileron channel output. There is a

moulded recess in this compartment which is sufficient to accommodate most popular 2.4GHz

receivers; however there is ample room elsewhere to locate yours if it does not.

We recommend that it should be securely positioned with self-adhesive "Velcro".

You must adhere to the receiver manufacturer recommendations regarding positioning and aerial

routing.

The battery compartment is accessed by gently squeezing the two raised white tags and lifting the

rear of the front hinged cover, (image M). Your flight battery, (not-included) can easily be installed and

connected to the factory fitted "T" style connector, (image N). Make certain the battery and cover are

both secure before flight.

Check that all control surfaces are centred and responding correctly to transmitter inputs.

Adjustments can be made to control surface centres by carefully rotating the plastic control horns on

the threaded portion of the metal control rods. Use the servo reversing function on your transmitter

for any control that is not responding in the correct sense to control inputs. Make certain that all

plastic links are securely "snapped" closed and that all control surface hinges are secure. Use a small

amount of foam glue if any hinges are not firmly attached.

Double-check that the propeller is securely fixed and it is

rotating in the correct direction, (image O).
