13) Thread the 10mm shrink tube over the switch, ensuring the switch is facing up.

Note:- on some LMFs it may not be possible to thread both the servo lead and the switch onto the heat shrink as the mode wires will be too short, if they have been cut for example. Some variants of the LMF have the mode wires on the opposite side to the servo lead. It is ok thread the 10mm shrinktube onto the switch and omit the servo lead.

 

 

14) Align the heat shrink tube so as the switch is central within it.

 

 

 

15) Using a hot air gun, heat the tube to shrink it over the switch.

.

 

16) Using a hot glue gun, apply glue into each end of the shrink tube to add mechanical strength. If you do not have a glue gun, epoxy may be used instead.

.

 

.

17) Using a modellers knife, carefully cut away the shrink tube to reveal the switches underneath.

.

 

That is it, we are finished.

 

Ensure all the switches are in the ‘on’ position. Now, instead of cutting a mode wire, move the corresponding switch to the ‘off’ position’ to select each mode as desired. Note, you will need to turn off and back on for the new mode to take effect.
