6. Attach a clevis to the outer hole of a large control 

horn. Position the control horn onto the aileron, aligning the 

pushrod with the second inner hole of the aileron servo arm. 

Position the control horn over the plywood plate in the aileron 

(if you cannot see it, hold the aileron at a shallow angle in 

good lighting or use a small pin to puncture the covering). 

When satisfi ed, use a felt-tip pen to mark the location of the 

control horn mounting holes onto the aileron. Repeat this 

step for the other wing panel.

❏ 

7. Drill 5/64" [2mm] 

holes at the marks you 

made. Install the control 

horns onto the ailerons 

using 2-56 x 5/8" [16mm] 

machine screws and 

control horn backplates.

❏ 

8. With the ailerons in the neutral position (use tape or 

small clamps to hold them in place) and the servos centered, 

mark the pushrod wires where they cross the second inner 

holes in the servo arms.

9. Make a 90° bend at the mark on each pushrod and cut 

off the excess pushrod 1/4" [6mm] beyond the bends. Attach 

the pushrods to the servo arms using nylon FasLinks. Thread 

the clevises up or down on the pushrods as necessary to 

center the ailerons with the servo arms still perpendicular 

to the servo cases. When satisfi ed, slide the silicone clevis 

retainers to the ends of the clevises to secure them.

❏ 

10. Attach a 6" [152mm] servo extension to each aileron 

servo. Secure the connections using the included pieces of 

heat shrink tubing. A heat gun, hair dryer or lighter can be 

used to shrink the tubing onto the connections.
