Step 12 (Continued…) – Install the rudder servo and pull-pull control horn

 
 

 

Pull-pull control horn hardware 

 

e.  Once the CA has dried, unscrew the 

aluminum support pieces from the pull-
pull control horns and screw the 
threaded rod through hole in the rudder. 

f.  Replace the aluminum support pieces on 

each side of the threaded rod making 
sure the same amount of rod sticks out 
of each side of the rudder. 

g.  Screw the plastic end pieces onto the 

threaded rod.  These can be infinitely 
adjusted to suit your flying style.

h.  Place the rudder servo in the rudder 

servo cutout in the main area of the 
fuselage.

i.  Mark and drill the holes with a 1.5mm drill 

bit.  Drip some thin CA into the holes to 
strengthen them. 

 
j.  When dry, screw the rudder servo to its 

mount. 

 

 
k.  Prepare the pull-pull clevises by screwing 

them onto the threaded end pieces.

l.  Run the pull-pull wires through the fuselage 

and out the exit cutouts to adjust the length. 

 
m.  Once the length of wire is determined, run 

the wire through the threaded end pieces. 

 

Run the pull-pull wire through the fuselage 

 

n.  When the proper length has been set, crimp 

metal tubing over the pull-pull wire to secure.
