Now you can glue the rudder into the slots of fuselage.
Assemble the tail gear like shown in the pictures below and
mount to the fuselage using 3 wood screws. The pivot points
of rudder and tail gear should be the same. About 5 cm away
from the pivot point drill a 4-4.5 mm hole. Thread the ball
head on the steel pin and glue the ball head into the rudder.
Put the rudder into max. position and shorten the steel pin
1 cm after the ball head. Put the eyescrews halfway into the
ball link and fix the ball link with M2 screws to the servo lever.
Mount the steering wire like in the picture. The steering wires
should be mounted crossed over inside the fuselage. Fix the
steering wire to the rudder lever in the same way like servo
lever. The wires should have a small tension and there should
be no gap in neutral rudder position.
RUDDER ASSEMBLING
Feel out the slots under the covering film and open them
with a hobby knife. Try the matching of the rudder lever and
correct with a file if necessary. Glue the lever with 10 min
epoxy into the slot, taking care of a symmetric position of the
lever. Afterwards put the hinges into the rudder, using very
thin CA or PVA glue. If the slots for hinges are to close, open it
with a hobby knife.
