5. Cutting Hole for Servos
24. Slip pod onto covered wing and center it. Make sure
the pod slides all the way back. Trace the location of the servo access hole
onto bottom surface of wing. Remove pod from wing.
25. Stick servos
together, side to side, as shown on plans. You can use double sided tape or a
small dab of hot glue to do this.
26. Take servos and place them on
bottom of wing, directly over the outline of the servo access hole. Center the
servos over this outline, side to side and front to back (refer to plans for
clarification). Trace the outline of the servos onto the wing.

27. Using a sharp
hobby knife, cut slightly inside the servo outline through the entire thickness
of the wing. Remove the foam plug. This cavity will hold the servos. It is
important to make the servo cavity slightly undersize so that the servos will
fit tightly, eliminating the need for adhesive for holding them in place. A
press fit is all that is required to keep the servos in position. Insert servos
to check fit. Remove servos from hole.
