INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
It is extremely important that your radio
system be correctly installed in your
model. Here are a few suggestions
installing your JR equipment:
1. Wrap the receiver in protective foam
rubber that is no less than 3/8 inch thick.
Secure the foam to the receiver with #64
rubber bands. This protects the receiver
in the event of a crash or a very hard
landing.
2. The servos should be mounted using
rubber grommets and brass eyelets to
isolate them from vibration. Do not over-
tighten the mounting screws; this will
negate the vibration absorption effect of
the rubber grommets. The following
diagram will assist you in properly
mounting your servo.
The brass eyelets are pushed from the
bottom up in the rubber grommets.
When the servo screw is tightened
securely, it provides the proper security
as well as the proper vibration isolation
for your servo.
3. The servos must be able to move freely
over their entire range of travel. Make
sure that the control linkages do not
bind or impede the movement of any of
the servos.
4. Mount all switches away from the
engine exhaust and away from any high
vibration areas. Make sure the switch
operates freely and is able to operate
over its full travel.
5. Mount the receiver antenna firmly to
the airplane to ensure that it will not
become entangled in the propeller or
control surfaces.
