## Preparation

1. Find a flat surface, such as a table, large enough to accommodate one of the DeltaQuad Evo's wings.
2. Take a wing of the DeltaQuad Evo out of the flight case.

The wingtips are interchangeable and can be installed on either side.

## Changing a wingtip

1. Position the wing on a table with the wingtip pointing upward to easily access the two screw holes.

3. When removing the second screw, the wingtip should begin to loosen from its position where it was secured. Hold and remove the wingtip with the other hand.

Before attaching the new wingtip make sure to use threadlocker on each tip of a screw.

4. Take the new wingtip and attach it to the wing by aligning the connectors and servo arm with the mounting hole on the side of the elevon.

5. Tighten both screws. Avoid using excessive force to prevent overtightening and potential damage.

6. Ensure the wing is properly attached and secured. Test the elevon by carefully moving it upwards. The motor of the wingtip servo should produce a sound and offer slight resistance to the movement.

The wingtip is now installed. Ensure that it is securely aligned and properly set in place. Double-check that all screws are snug but not overtightened to avoid any damage.&#x20;
