RUDDER INSTALLATION
1.
Install the rudder control horns. Their installation is the same as the
aileron control horns. Make sure to install the rudder control horns
on the correct side of the rudder.
Make sure to check that the rudder control horns are
glued securely once the adhesive has fully cured.
3.
Glue the hinges to the fi n using 30-minute epoxy.
Make sure to check that the rudder hinges are glued
securely once the adhesive has fully cured.
RUDDER LINKAGE INSTALLATION
1.
Prepare the holes in the fuselage for the rudder servo by threading a
screw into each hole. Remove the screws and place 2 to 3 drops of
thin CA in each hole to harden the surrounding wood. Once the CA
has fully cured, install the rudder servo with the servo shaft toward
the front of the fuselage.
2.
Slide a 40
1
/
8
inch (1020mm) pushrod into the rudder pushrod tube.
3.
Thread a ball end 12 turns on the pushrod. Secure the servo ball link
to the control horn using an M3 x 10 button head screw, M3 washer
and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench and 5.5mm nut driver to
tighten the hardware.
4.
Center the rudder servo using the radio system. Place the servo
arm on the servo so it is perpendicular to the servo centerline.
It may be necessary to rotate the arm 180-degrees to achieve a
better alignment of the arm on the servo. Mark the arm so it can be
returned to its position on the servo.
2.
Glue the hinges in the rudder using 30-minute epoxy. The installation
of the rudder hinges is similar to the aileron hinges.
5.
Thread a ball end 12 turns on a cable fi tting. Prepare two cable
fi ttings at this time.
