INSTALL THE RADIO SYSTEM
1. Separate the back plate from one of the nylon control
horns. Thread a nylon clevis 14 turns onto the 2-56 metal
pushrod. Slide a silicone clevis retainer over the end of the
clevis. Attach the clevis in the third hole from the bottom of
the control horn.

2. Use a sharp hobby knife to remove the covering from
the end of the rudder guide tube. Insert the pushrod into the
rudder pushrod guide tube. Position the control horn on the
rudder so that the four holes in the control horn are aligned
with the hinge line. Drill two 3/32" [2.4mm] holes through the
rudder using the control horn as a guide. Remove the control
horn and harden the holes by applying two or three drops of
thin CA in each hole. After the CA has cured, attach the control
horn to the rudder using two 2-56 x 3/8" [9.5mm] screws and
the control horn back plate.
3. Use a #44 or 3/32" [2.4mm] drill bit to enlarge the outer
hole in the second nylon control horn.
4. Insert the quick connector through the previously drilled
hole in the control horn. Install a 2mm washer on the quick
connector. Put a drop of threadlocker on the threads and
secure the quick connector with a 2mm thumb nut. Tighten
the nut and then slowly back it off until the quick connector
rotates freely. The threadlocker will prevent the nut from
coming loose.
5. Slide the elevator cable through the hole in the quick
connector and position the elevator control horn so that the
four holes are aligned with the elevator hinge line. Use a felt
tipped pen to mark the location of the holes.
