Hi OpJose -- Thanks!

Also - if you look in the top hole on the wing root, you'll see that they included a thread (string) so you can easily route the wires....yeah, right! I was not able to find the other end anyway near the servo or the retract openings! Here's what I did - and it was amazing at how fast I got this done. Use some kite string....4' of it....tie a small bolt or nut to the end to act as a weight. There's a hole that you can't easily see to the top of the servo bay....feed it through there, then stand the wing up and jiggle it until the bolt makes it's way through...for me, it came out the other side in seconds! I was very happy, as I was about to start cutting off covering to route air hoses and wires!

With the exception of the orange-tinted canopy, I'm very impressed with the kit so far.
You can also use the kite string idea and a small shop vac over the opening you are trying to get the string threaded through. Push the string in and while holding one end, place the shop vac over the other opening and switch it on. It will draw the string through in nothing flat.

Just my two cents worth
