Man, they installed the hinges for me! THANKS! Heavy ones too!

Since the hinges were already installed, (and checked with a good yank!), the next step is to install the servo, and control horn. The included hardware looks a little like a Rocket City post type of horn and installs easily. I like this type of control horn as it allows you to "fine tune" your aileron throw by adjusting the height of the link on the post. This way you can closely match your aileron differential pretty easily A little hint here. When you cut out the covering over the servo well, start at each corner and cut and "X". Now iron down each piece of excess covering inside the well. This will keep the covering from lifting later in flight.

Another nice touch is the fishing line that they placed in the wing so I could easily pull my servo extension through. I used an 18" extension. Make sure you wrap the connector with tape which will help to keep it from coming apart.

I'm using Hitec 605s on the ailerons. They have plenty of torque for this application. Of course I'm not flying IMAC competitions with this plane anyway, so they will work just fine.

Install the servo, arm and control rod. The control arm should be pointing to wards the wing tip, not the fuse.side. Place the control horn on the aileron and line it up with the control rod. The rod should be parallel with the servo side. Now mark the holes with a fine felt tip marker. Drill through the hardwood insert and screw it together and you're done.

One note here... There are two different lengths of screw, 20mm and 25mm. The two longer screws go in closest to the hinge line and the smaller one to wards the back edge of the aileron. Don't screw them down too far as you can crush the wood. You should have about 2-3mm of screw sticking out of the bottom piece, that's it.

(more tomorrow...)
