Final Assembly
(continued)
61.
Following the Tape Hinge Diagrams on the plan sheets, attach the ailerons, elevator and
rudder to their respective surfaces with clear tape.
62.
Open covering over the control horn slots in the rudder and elevator. Install the ply rudder
horn R (sheet 09/09, 1/32 in. ply) to the
RIGHT
side of the rudder. Ensure that it is oriented
per the diagram on the plan. Installing the horn backwards will create unequal left and right
rudder throw.
Install the elevator horn E (sheet 09/09, 1/32 in. ply) on the
TOP LEFT
side of the elevator.
Note: Elevator horn will not center over hinge line. This is intentional and produces the
proper amount of differential travel specified on the detail sheet.
63.
Install pushrods through their exit slots first, then through former F4, and finally through
formers F9/F10. The rudder pushrod will pass through the right slot on top of the fuselage,
and the right holes in F4, and F9/F10. The elevator pushrod will pass through the left slot in
the fuselage top, and through the left holes in F4 and F9/F10. Keep pushrods from sliding
out by applying a small amount of tape to each end.
64.
With pushrods in place, follow the General Pushrod Detail on the wing plan sheet to make
“snake” bends on the ends of the push-rods that will connect with the receiver brick.
65.
We suggest extending the leads from the Spektrum SPMAR6400LBL Receiver/ESC/Servo
“Brick” by 2 in. Remove the motor lead or clip off the connector and solder on an
appropriate length of 22 AWG wire. Finished length should be at least 5-1/2 in.
For the Battery lead we suggest clipping off the connector and soldering on a JST
connector suitable for most small batteries. Finished length should be at least 5-1/2 in.
66.
Connect pushrods to receiver, then mount receiver on F2 with double sided servo tape
(DUB-634).
