in the transmitter.) Also make sure the servo arms don't
interfere with the ESC or the mounting strap. If necessary,
cut off the unused servo arms or adjust the position of the
ESC and the strap. You may double-check and set the control
throws now, or wait until you get to the "Set the Control
Throws" section on page 10.

the ailerons with the 90° connectors and to the screw-locks in
the servo arm. Center the ailerons and tighten down the screws
in the connectors with a drop of threadlocker on the threads.

Balance the Propeller & Mount the Spinner
❏
1. For optimum performance and motor effi ciency balance
the propeller using a Top Flite
Balancer (TOPQ5700) or other suitable balancer. Use a
hobby knife or sandpaper to sand the one side of the heavier
blade until you can get the prop to balance.
❏
2. Mount the propeller with the included aluminum
propeller washer. Use a few dabs of RTV silicone, R/C 56 or
waterproof white glue to glue on the spinner. Using just a few
dabs of any of the soft glues recommended should allow the
spinner to be removed if ever necessary in the future. If the
spinner becomes damaged two spares are provided.
