- Cut the notch at the front for the throttle arm as shown.
- Place the motor on the mount arms again, mark the posi-
tion of the holes for the retaining screws using the motor
lugs as a guide, and drill them 3 mm Ø.
- Temporarily install the motor by fitting the screws V5

- Mark the position of the hole for the throttle linkage in the
nose bulkhead, in line with the throttle arm, and drill it 3.5
mm Ø.
- Cut the throttle snake outer V7 to a length of about 240
mm, fit it through the hole and glue it to the nose
bulkhead.
- Solder the threaded coupler V8 to the end of the throttle
pushrod, and screw the plastic clevis V9 on the end. Slip
the pushrod through the snake outer and connect the pla-
stic clevis to the throttle arm.

- Press the rubber grommets and metal spacers into the
mounting lugs of the throttle servo V10, and install it in the
servo tray.
- Cut down the servo output arm as shown.
- Move the servo to the "full-throttle" position from the
transmitter, and open the carburettor barrel fully.
- Cut the pushrod to the correct length, solder the threaded
coupler V8 to the end and screw an M2 locknut on it.
Connect the pushrod to the servo using a clevis V11.

- Install the two nipples in the fueltank V12 as described in
the instructions supplied with it.
- The tank is installed in the fuselage and packed round
with pieces of foam to hold it in position; note that the
foam has to be positioned before the tank is fitted.
- Cut overlength pieces of fuel tubing V13 (Fig. 70) and
connect them to the fueltank nipples. Stick a piece of
insulating tape to the fuel line which is connected to the
clunk pick-up.
- Remove the motor.
- We recommend that you seal the tank compartment
and the motor bay with sanding sealer or clear lacquer
to protect it from fuel.
- Place the fueltank in the fuselage, routing the fuel lines
through the large hole in the nose bulkhead.
- Cut a piece of 8 x 8 mm balsa strip V14 to length and
install it across the fuselage as shown, to hold the fuel-
tank in position. Tack the strip in place with just a few
drops of cyano so that you can remove it and withdraw
the fueltank at any time for maintenance.

- Install the motor, and cut the fuel lines to the correct
length. When the motor has been installed permanently,
the fuel feed line (marked with tape) is connected to the
carburettor nipple.
- Remove the motor again. The motor should not be instal-
led permanently until the model has been covered.
