BEFORE INSTALLING THE SERVOS, PLEASE READ THIS!
The Dragon Lady 60 is designed to use four servos. For the elevator and rudder servos, we have designed several different options
for their mounting location. Typically, these servos would be mounted inside the fuselage on a plywood tray, which we have
provided. This tray can be moved forward or aft several inches which will affect the overall balance of the airplane. If you're using
a small, lightweight engine, you should install the servos inside the fuselage with the servo tray as far forward as possible. If you're
using a mid-size, moderately heavy engine, we suggest installing the servos inside the fuselage with the servo tray pushed back as
far as possible. If you're using a large, heavy engine, we strongly suggest installing the servos into the precut holes in the sides of the
fuselage, near the tail.
If you decide to install your elevator and rudder servos in the sides of the fuselage, near the tail, please see Section 27on
page # 40 for information on installing the servos and control linkages in this configuration.
Test-fit and glue the servo tray into the fuselage using
a generous amount of 5 minute epoxy.
Because we are using a light, .61 size engine, we have
installed the servo tray as far forward as possible.
IMPORTANT After gluing the tray in place, you may need to
trim the edges of the servo tray supports so they don't interfere
with the servos.
Install the throttle, elevator and rudder servos into the
servo trays, making sure the servo output shafts are orientated
as shown.
IMPORTANT Install the throttle servo on the same side that
your engine's throttle arm is located.
To make it easier to install the servo mounting screws,
first drill 1/16" pilot holes through the servo tray.
Step 2: Installing the Aileron Servo
Install the rubber grommets and brass collets onto your aileron servo, making sure to install the collets with the flanges
toward the bottom of the servo.
Center the aileron servo tray over the servo cutout in the
top of the wing.
While holding the servo tray in place, trace around it
using a pencil.
