6.
Using z-bend pliers, make a z-bend at the marked location on
each rod and cut off the excess rod. Set the excess rod aside for
now — they will be used for the construction of the elevator and
rudder pushrods later.
7.
Install the z-bend into the outermost hole on either side of the
servo arm.
8.
Adjust the aileron toque rod length by screwing in or out until
the aileron is exactly in the neutral position when the servo is
centered and the clevis is in the aileron horn. Adjust both sides.
Rudder Pushrod
9.
Locate one of the short threaded rods, one piece of the extra
length of rod from Step 6, one piece of the yellow heat shrink
tubing, one clevis, and the shorter pushrod dowel.
10.
Using a sharp hobby knife or a pair of scissors, cut the heat
shrink tubing into two equal pieces
11.
Cut 7
′′
of the threaded rod (measured from the threaded
end). This rod will be used to attach the clevis to the rudder
control horn.
12.
Using a needle nose pliers, bend a 90 degree angle, 1/4
′′
from the unthreaded end of the threaded rod.
13.
Insert the 90-degree bend into the hole of the pushrod
dowel and saturate the dowel with thick CA glue where the rod
contacts the dowel. Allow to cure.
