Here you can see 40mm x 1.5mm carbon 
rod  installed  to  elevator.  It  must  be 
exactly    same  lenght  on  both  sides. 
Cable that is providet with kit will work 
fine, but same as with ball links i preffere 
to use slightly different material for my 
competition  models.  I  use  5KG  fishing 
line, and on top of the line i wind kevlar 
threat. Togetheer they provite extremely 
good    control  with  no  „spring  effect“  ,   
also  tension  stay  the  same  no  matter 
what weather you have.

Last surface  left to do is rudder. Same as with elevator  i recommend  to use pull pull system  to 
control  it.  Same  ass  with  elevator  i  recommend  “8"  hinging  method.  In  order  to  have  smooth 
movement, ussing sanding paper make edge of elevator round. Also very important upgrade for 
rudder  strenght  and  long  life  is piece  of thin  flat  carbon  going  from  compensator   to middle  of 

Ussing  foam  friendly  CA  glues  attach  triangle  piece  to  rudder  as  shown  in  picture.    Make  sure 
triangle piece is „connected“ to reinforcement carbon. Latter glue in 45mm x1,5mm carbon rod, in 
the holle close to bending edge, make sure distance on both sides is equal.
