Link the valves to the servos using scrap pushrod wire.
Secure the fuel pump and smoke pump with a tie wrap next to the UAT You want the pumps
away from the receiver and ECU as far as possible to prevent any possible electronic interference
Connect the input side of the fuel pump to the UAT
Run the output side of the fuel pump to your manual shutoff valve and then to the fuel
solenoid.
Also Velcro is a really good way to attach some of your equipment, like the ECU, Receiver, air
failsafe and Gyro.
We used only one air fill valve as shown in the previous picture and then it “Y’s underneath to
one air gauge and then to a one-way check valve to the other air gauge this makes two separate
systems. Depending on were you wind up putting your air tanks just add a “Y” to that system
and put one tank to that system. This way if you had a leak you would still have the other system
working.
The small air gauges can be purchased from your dealer, that way you can see how much
pressure you have at all times. You can install them in the two holes
provided already in the
main tray like is show in the previous picture. This location seems to be the best location as it
prevents interfering with the cockpit and also gives easy access to the filler valve.
After you are all done with your trays it is time to connect the forward and Aft fuselage
bulkheads together so you can finish connecting every thing to the trays.
12: CONNECTING FORWARD & AFT FUSELAGE
Make sure you have all the servo extensions from each servo and they are long enough after
you “Y” connect most of them to your receiver you could use tie’s or automotive spiro wrap to
help keep things neat and tidy.
Also if you notice in the picture we used a vodka bottle for our smoke fuel tank and put it on
top of the main tank.
