2. Trim the rear of the hatch as needed to fit around the
ply motor reinforcement plates so that the hatch will fit flat
on the fuselage. You can see the area that was trimmed in
the previous photo. You will need to shave off material the
thickness of the ply. Note: Make sure the pushrod tube "pin"
protrudes through the hole in the plywood motor mount as
shown above.

3. When the canopy is installed, it will hold the front of the
hatch closed. For additional holding power, a Velcro type
fastener (GPMQ4480, not included) can be added at the
front of the hatch.

4. Connect the ESC to the motor. The positive terminal of
the motor is marked with a "+" sign, as well as a spot of red
paint on some motors. As the motor must rotate in reverse
(pusher), the negative wire from the ESC is connected to
the positive terminal of the motor. The negative wire is the
darker of the two wires. The ESC has plugs on the wires
which can be pressed onto the motor terminals, or the
connectors can be cut off and the wires soldered directly to
the motor terminals. Plug the ESC into the receiver. Depending
on where your receiver will be located, you may need an
extension wire.

5. The completed motor/ESC installation, ready for the
battery.

6. Remove the screws from the servos holding the control
arms in place and remove the arms as well. Center the trims
on the transmitter and move the throttle stick to idle, then
turn on the transmitter. Connect a charged battery to the
ESC and turn it on according to the instructions supplied
with the ESC. With the controls in neutral, reinstall the servo
control arms and screws.

7. Locate the prop. Check that the lettering on the prop
will face aft when the prop is pressed onto the motor shaft.
If it does not, remove the rubber spinner mount and reverse
the direction of the prop, then press the rubber spinner
mount back onto the prop. Press the prop onto the motor
shaft 3/8" [9.5mm]. Make sure the prop is clear of any
obstacles. With the radio on, slowly advance the throttle and
make sure the prop turns in the proper direction. Remember
that this is a pusher type prop. If the rotation direction is not
correct, reverse the connectors on the motor. Disconnect
the battery and turn the radio off when finished.
Note: Some electronic speed controllers must be cycled
before they will turn on. Check the instructions that were
supplied with your ESC.

8. The Firebat ARF is balanced 4-1/2" [115mm] aft of the
leading edge of the wing, where it meets the fuselage. Make
a mark on both sides of the fuselage on the bottom of the
wing at this point.
