2. Strap your receiver behind the throttle servo bay. Be
sure that there is foam rubber beneath the receiver.
❏
3. Locate the 2" [51mm] piece of antenna tube. Cut the
tube in half and glue the pieces to the fuselage sides in an
orientation so that the antenna ends are 90 degrees to each
other (see your radio manual for additional information about
antenna placement). Insert the antenna ends into the tubes.
❏
4. Mount your switch harness on the side of the fuselage
opposite your muffl er. If your muffl er is mounted in the fuselage
cavity then either side will work fi ne. An optional charge jack
receptable fi ts well in front of the switch. Note: If you are
using a LiFe receiver pack then the charge jack receptable
should be used for monitoring pack voltage, or charging in
conjunction with the balancing lead. Do not attempt to charge
a LiFe battery through this jack without also conencting to the
balance lead! The balancing connector will remain accessible
through the canopy hatch. To help prevent inadvertent charging
of a LiFe battery through this jack without also connecting the
balancing connector, we identifi ed the battery type installed
in our model with a LiFe Source decal.
❏
5. Connect your servos and switch to the receiver. If
you installed a brushless motor, you will need to attach a 6"
[152mm] servo extension to the ESC lead. Bundle the excess
wires together using tie straps or something similar. We used
the underside of the receiver battery strap to hold the servo
lead extension and switch harness connector out of the way
of the wing saddle area.

1. If you installed a glow engine, make card stock templates
of any engine component that you will need to trim the cowl. We
suggest starting with the minimum sized opening necessary to
clear the engine parts. Then, as you test fi t the cowl in place,
you will need to enlarge the openings accordingly in order
to be able to fi t the cowl in place. If you installed a brushless
motor then you will not need to make any cutouts in the cowl.
