Use a couple of pieces of masking tape to hold each of the ailerons centered.
Thread one nylon clevis onto each pushrod wire.
Making sure both ailerons and the servo arm are centered,
snap the clevises into the adjustable control horns.
Thread one adjustable control horn onto each aileron
torque rod.
Both control horns should be even with the tops of the
torque rods, as shown in the drawing.

Step 1: Aligning the Cowling
Remove the needle valve and muffler assembly from your engine.
Temporarily slide the cowling over the engine and onto the fuselage.
Depending on the engine you've chosen, and how it's mounted, you may need to cut away a portion of the cowling to
clear the engine's cylinder head. If so, use a rotary tool with a cutting disc and a sanding drum to make the cutout. Work
slowly, checking the fit often so you don't remove too much of the cowling or damage it. For our Magnum XL .61ARNV
engine, the cylinder head fit inside the cowling, so we needed to only cut a hole for access to the glow plug.
