1. Insert the two wire pushrods into the outer pushrod
tubes inside the fuselage. Using a sharp hobby knife, cut a
small slot in the covering, where the pushrods press against
the covering, to allow the pushrods to exit the fuselage.
❏
2. Remove and reinstall the pushrods so that the Z-bends
are at the aft end of the fuselage. On the right pushrod,
insert the Z-bend into the outer hole of a nylon control horn.
This pushrod will be for the elevator. On the left pushrod,
insert the Z-bend into the second hole from the end. Position
the control horn on the elevator so that the attachment holes
are aligned with the hinge line.
❏
3. Mark the two control horn mounting holes on the
elevator. Remove the control horn and drill 5/64" [2mm]
holes through the elevator at the marks. Mount the control
horn with two 2x9mm machine screws and the nylon
mounting plate on the top of the elevator.
❏
4. Install the rudder control horn following the same
procedure. Make sure that the control horn does not
interfere with the elevator.
❏
1. Install a pushrod connector on the elevator servo arm,
1/4" [6mm] from the center of the servo arm. Install a second
pushrod connector on the rudder servo arm, 5/16" [8mm]
from the center of the servo arm. First insert the pushrod
connector though the horn, then install a 2mm washer and
a 2mm nut on the connector. Install a 3mm set screw in the
top of the pushrod connector.
