Reinstall
the
CF
pushrod
with
the
two
wire
pushrod
assembly
into
the
fuselage
and
into
the
bearing
in
the
aft
of
the
fuselage.
Connect
the
wire
pushrod
ends
to
the
elevator
control
horns
and
set
the
elevators
to
neutral.
Temporarily
tape
the
elevator
halves
in
this
position.
15.
Locate
the
laser
‐
cut
1/16”
plywood
elevator
pushrod
bearing
doubler.
The
piece
gets
added
to
the
end
of
the
CF
pushrod
from
behind
the
bulkhead
with
the
bearing
in
it.
The
bearing
that
is
in
the
bulkhead
has
a
loose
fit.
This
1/16”
plywood
bearing
has
a
slightly
snug
fit
and
will
keep
the
CF
rod
from
moving
around.
Trial
fit
this
bearing
a
couple
of
times
before
attempting
to
glue
it
in
place.
Once
you
are
satisfied
that
you
can
correctly
install
this
part,
add
a
couple
of
drops
of
thick
CA
to
the
front
face
of
the
1/16”
plywood
part
and
slip
it
onto
the
back
of
the
CF
rod
and
press
it
into
place
on
the
back
of
the
bulkhead.
You
need
enough
glue
to
hold
the
part
in
place
but
too
much
glue
might
glue
your
CF
elevator
pushrod
to
the
bearing
.
16.
Release
the
tape,
or
pins,
holding
the
elevator
and
manually
move
the
elevators
through
the
full
range
of
motion
needed
(both
up
and
down)
and
ensure
nothing
is
binding
and
that
you
have
free
movement.
Adjust
the
setup
as
needed.
17.
With
your
elevator
servo
installed,
connect
the
wire
pushrod
to
the
elevator
servo
control
arm.
18.
Set
the
elevator
halves
to
neutral
and
tape,
or
pin,
them
in
this
position.
Also
set
the
elevator
servo
at
neutral.
19.
You
should
see
that
the
wire
pushrod
connected
to
the
elevator
control
arm
overlaps
the
CF
pushrod.
Use
thick
CA
and
kicker
to
glue
the
wire
pushrod
to
the
CF
pushrod.
20.
Once
the
CA
has
set,
use
strong
nylon
thread,
or
Kevlar
thread,
to
wrap
the
joint
completely,
and
then
apply
thin
CA
to
the
thread.
Heat
shrink
tubing
provided
can
be
used
over
the
CA
joints
to
further
strengthen
the
wire
to
CF
joint.
21.
Just
aft
of
the
cockpit
inside
the
fuselage
use
scrap
wood
to
build
a
support
for
the
elevator
CF
pushrod.
22.
Remember
to
free
your
elevator
halves
and
test
for
full
motion.
23.
Adjust
as
needed.
