I cut out the holes for the elevator electric trim switch and L.E.D. position indicator. |

They both fit. The next step is to fabricate a nice 'cover' to clean it all up. It will be made of plastic and look the same as my custom fuel indicators. |

To replace the manual trim
with the Ray Allen electric trim, I needed to remove this trim cable
that is being held by the orange zip tie. There was no way I could reach
into the back of the fuselage to cut it so I taped a soldering iron to
an aluminum pole and carefully melted it!
Believe me I was VERY careful not to touch the fabric as that would have poked an instant hole in there! |

Once I removed the orange
zip tie, I wanted to pull the cable out from the front. At the same
time, I wanted to fish the wire for the servo through the right
stabilizer and through the fuselage. The easiest way to do this was to tape the wire to the cable so when I pulled the cable out, the wire would be routed. See also: |
