Too many guys are making servo installation harder than it actually is.
There is no need to disassemble frames or anything.

It isnt necessarily easier to install the servo's with the frames apart.



There is a 4 part maneuver to install them. Once you have done it just once, you'll be a pro.

These pictures are in the Avant FX/EFX manual, and not the Aurora manual unfortunately.
The servo layout and placement is the same for both helicopters.
This will help you.

It is important to leave this opening for last, as you need to be able to access the screws on the lower servo.

A curved tip hemostat is a good tool to use to hold the screw.
Access the screw from the the widest part of the slot by the servo wires.

Thanks a lot for the explanation. I know it's in the FX and EFX manual but I haven't gotten to it for the Aurora manual so thanks a lot for the help I really appreciate it.

I think I'm going to take those pictures from the EFX manual and put them in the Aurora manual for now until I get to making the cad version like the rest of the manual.

It's good to see that the above pictures from the EFX manual are now in the Aurora manual.
