2. Connect the servo leads to the receiver. If you are using
a 4-channel receiver, you will also need a dual servo extension
or Y-harness for the aileron servos. Feed the motor leads on
your ESC through the bottom of the firewall mounting box.
Connect the ESC to the motor and to the receiver.
3. Cut pieces of double-sided servo tape (not included) to
secure the receiver and ESC where you applied epoxy in
step #1.
4. Route the receiver antenna out of the battery hatch and
down the underside of the fuselage. Use clear tape to hold the
antenna in place. For a cleaner look, we ran the receiver
antenna through the inside of the fuselage to the back. The
antenna exits from a small hole drilled in the location shown.
5. Make a battery strap out of the supplied hook and loop
material 8" [200mm] long by overlapping two pieces and
cutting it to length. Feed it through the battery tray in the
location shown. The battery strap can be glued to the battery
tray with medium CA to keep it in place.
6. Test fit your battery into place and adjust the battery
strap as necessary. When you balance the model, the exact
position of the battery pack will be determined. When you
know where the pack will need to be to balance the airplane,
mark its position onto the battery tray and put a piece of
adhesive-backed hook and loop material onto the pack and
battery tray to help hold it in place during flight.
