Screw the bracket in place with the two 2.6 x
12m self-tapping screws provided. Push the
wheel collar up under the bracket and tighten the
setscrew to hold it in place.
INSTALL THE ELEVATOR SERVOS. Add a
24” extension to each of your elevator servos and
use tape or shrink tubing to secure the
connections. Install the servos with the servo
arm toward the front, not to the rear as shown in
the picture.
INSTALL THE ELEVATOR PUSHRODS AND
CONTROL HORNS. Locate the two 4”
pushrods, one left and one right control horn and
eight 2.6x12mm self tapping screws. Attach one
end of the pushrod to the outer hole of your servo
arm and the other end to the outer hole in one of
the control horns.
Use a small clamp or tape to hold the elevator
level. Hold the control horn in position so that
the pushrod comes straight back from the servo
arm and mark the position of the four control
horn mounting screws. Make sure the base of
the horn is over the hard point in the elevator.
Drill 1/16” pilot holes and screw the horn to the
elevator. Do the other elevator the same way.
INSTALL THE RUDDER SERVO AND
CONTROL HORNS. Mount your rudder servo
in the center hole of the forward servo tray and
install a long servo arm. Locate the remaining
two control horns, four 2x20mm bolts and four
2mm nuts. The control horns are mounted on
both sides of the rudder, directly behind the cable
exits in the sides of the fuselage. The four bolts
go through the rudder and both horns and have a
nut on the second side. Make sure the base of
the horn is over the hard point in the elevator. Drill 3/32”
pilot holes and screw the horn to the elevator. Be sure to use a
thread-locking compound on the nuts.
ASSEMBLE THE PULL-PULL CABLES. Locate the two
pull-pull cable sets and adjust each of the four clevises so that
they are centered on the threaded area of the brass clevis
adapter. Prepare one end of each cable as follows.
