No problem if screws poke out a bit on the top surface.
Hope the screws are threaded into a small mounting plate on the top surface, and not into the foam alone.

Use a compass or dividers point to enlarge the hole SLIGHTLY. Not too loose.

Does the pushrod have a Z bend at the other end?
If so, it will fit the servo arm.
The adjustable end should normally be at the the horn, and not on the servo arm.

Right.
Now connect and switch on the radio and center the servo through the RC.
This is to check if the servo arm is mounted on the servo shaft perpendicular to the case.
If not you have to remove the servo and remove/refit the arm. Don't over-tighten the screw or it will strip the thread in the shaft.
Hope you haven't stuck the servo in already.

Anyway, center the servo by the RC and check. Then adjust the length by screwing the clevis in or out.

I am thinking to solder the circuit, pls let me know which wire and connector goes with what.
Pls check attachment.

And also, why are the holes made in the 3.5mm connectors ?

Best way to do this.
Make three holes in a piece of wood with a 4mm bit, about 1cm deep.
Push the connectors in.
Heat the connector from the outside, and let solder melt inside. To get it started, you may have to keep the iron outside the hole, and let the solder touch it from inside. (Can't think of any other use for the hole!)
If not able to make the above wooden jig, put rubber bands around the handles of pliers. The connector can now be held in the plier's jaws without needing a hand. You will be needing one hand for the solder and one for the iron.
Don't forget the heat shrink tubing.
Can be connected in any order. If motor runs in reverse, interchange any two wires.

Having this tool really eases soldering a lot:

And you can't self learn soldering without burning yourself somewhere or the other Bang Head

Unless you have the tool I mentioned Grin Wink

@ Chintal
just a small suggestion,
just put a small drop of hotglue on the small screws coming out from Ailerons,it will smooth the flow and mainly safe to hands on accidental part.
good going.
