The tail group can now be fixed to the fuselage; the assembly is secured using two
socket-head screws and washers. Fit the screws and tighten them using a 2.5 mm
A/F allen key. Don’t over-tighten them: they should be just tight enough to prevent
the tail assembly shifting on the fuselage.
The next step is to attach the horns to the rudder and elevator, as shown in the
pictures. First connect the clevises to the horns.
You may need to bend the pushrods slightly where they exit the fuselage at the tail
end to ensure that they move smoothly. Position the horns on the control surfaces
with the linkage holes directly over the hinge pivot line, then mark the hole positions,
remove the horns and drill 2 mm Ø holes at the marked points. Fix the horns to the
rudder and elevator using a spreader plate and two pan-head screws each
.
