12. Installing the Servos

The installation of a servo (1) always depends on the par-
ticular model used.
For specific information, refer to the design documents of
the model.
However, you should generally try to fasten the servos with
screws in such a way that vibrations are minimised. This is
why rubber bushings (2) with metal sleeves (3) are usually
included with the servos.
When servo arms or linkages are obstructed, the servos
cannot assume the required positions. This causes higher
power consumption and the model cannot be controlled
properly.
Always mount the servo lever at a 90° angle to the linkage
rods (see sketch A).
The rudder or steering travel will not be equal on both sides
if the servo lever is mounted at an angle to the linkage rod
(sketches B and C).
Important:
Before installation of the servo levers for the driving and steering function, observe that the trimming
function of the respective channel is placed in its centre position. For further information, refer to the
section "Setting the Digital Trim" in the chapter "Programming the Remote Control System".
The servo lever at channel 3 (CH3) must be assembled so that it can move from one end position to the
other.
