Elevator Servo Installation
1. The elevators have been pre-hinged and glued to
the stabs and are ready for flight. No other steps
are necessary for hinging.
Note:
We have supplied clear Ultracote for seal-
ing the hinge gaps. This is an optional step but is
recommended
Gather the stabs and elevators, two elevators ser-
vos, and two 36” servo extensions as shown be-
low.
STAB AND ELEVATOR ASSEMBLY
2. Attach the 36” extension to the servo lead and
secure with safety wire, string, tape, or other
method. Ensure the plugs will not come apart
from vibration or light tension.
Note:
180 in. oz. digital, metal geared servos are
recommended. Servo selection can be the differ-
ence between a great flying model and a model
that will crash. Always use brand name high
quality servos.
3.
Layout the servo on the fuse to test fit the in-
stallation and ensure servo lead is the correct
length.
4.
Feed the servo extension through the elevator
mounting hole into the fuse toward the nose as
shown.
