Step 12 (Continued…) – Install the rudder servo and pull-pull control horn
o. Adjust the pull-pull wire tension by
screwing the threaded end rod in or out
of the clevises.
Final pull-pull assembly
Pull-pill cables must cross over
Note: If you opted to mount your rudder
servo in the tail of your Velox, you will need
to mount a conventional control horn as
described in the earlier steps.
Step 13 – Install the elevator servos and linkages
a. Since the elevator servos are in the tail,
you will need servo extensions. As in
the aileron step, it is a good idea to
secure the servo connector to the servo
extensions. We like to use heat shrink
tubing to secure the two connectors
together.
Secure the servo connector to the servo extension
b. Place the elevator servos in the elevator
servo cutouts that you prepared earlier.
c. Mark and drill the holes with a 1.5mm
drill bit. Drip some thin CA into the holes
to strengthen them.
d. When the CA has dried, screw the
elevator servos to the fuselage.
e. Center the elevator servos and place a servo
horn on the servo output shaft.
f. Adjust the elevator control rod on the left
side to 270mm (10.6in) and the elevator
control rod on the right side to 212mm
(8.35in).
Left elevator half control rod (270mm / 10.6in)
Right elevator half control rod (212mm / 8.35in)
g. Install the control rods.
