2.3.Installing servos and tail rods
Mark out the holes for tubes, transmitter antennas and wires of the aileron servos with
a pencil, drill with a Ø2-mm drill and finish with a needle file.
Picture 2.5. Rework of the pod
Glue the tip to one of the ends of the carbon fiber rods, put on the thermal shrinkage
and heat shrink.

Cut off two 60-mm-long tubes, glue them like in the picture 2.7, glue the other 5-
mm-long ones with superglue to the beam with the pace of 50-60 mm
Picture 2.7. Pasting in the rod housing tubes
Cut off the eyelets on servos, wrap them with masking tape
and, if possible, with thin strong thread.
Picture 2.8. Preparation for the servo installation
Finish the rockers of the tail servos in such a way that an arm
is 4 mm long

Temporarily glue 2 servos and an battery with tape to the beam in the most forward
position. Make sure the cap can be put on and machine rockers don’t touch it. Glue the
servos to the beam using superglue.
Picture 2.10. Installing the servos and the battery
Insert the rods into the tube and glue the
second set of tips, having set the average
position of the servos and the rudders.
Picture 2.11. Installing the tail rods
2.4. Installing the aileron servos
Drill a hole for the wires of the servos with a Ø5-6 mm drill. Take off the plastic
cases of the connectors to pass the wires through the holes, glue the servos using epoxy.
Don’t forget to set up the rocker in the right position and tighten the screw
beforehand!

We recommend setting up 5 flight modes on the transmitter
Start - 0,5mm up Speed - 0 Regular flight -1,5mm down
Thermal –3mm down Braking - maximally down
