From the top of the elevator, plug the control horn screw
through the hole and secure it with the provided nut.
Step 6
Step 7
Cut off the first section of one of the hinges. This is done
to clear the tube installed in the stabilizer.
Step 8
Glue the elevator hinges in place using the same
techniques used to hinge the ailerons. The shortened
hinges will be installed into the stabilizer towards the
root.

Step 9
Step 10
Step 11
Install the elevator linkage using the same techniques
used to the aileron linkage.
Repeat Steps 1 through 9 for the remaining stabilizer and elevator.
Install the stabilizer using the same techniques for the wing installation. Secure the stabilizer
with screws at the bottom as shown.
Required Parts
Step 1
• Rudder
• Fuselage
Check the opening for the rudder cable in the fuselage.
Carefully remove the covering from the opening using a
hobby knife.
Section 7 – Rudder Installation
Step 3
Note: The technique for installing the control horns
in the elevators is similar to the aileron control horn
installation.
Center the elevator servo using the radio system. Install
a servo arm onto the servo.
Step 4
Mark a line 3mm (1/8”) away from the servo arm and
parallel to the movement direction of the servo arm.
Measure rearward 10mm (3/8”) from the top of the
elevator bevel and make another mark using a pen. The
intersection of the two marks will be the position for the
control horn.
Step 5
Note: Make sure to drill the hole perpendicular to the
centerline of the elevator.
Carefully drill through the elevator at the marked
position. Be especially careful when penetrating
through the top surface of the elevator, as it’s easy to
split out the wood and rip the covering.
Placing a wooden block under the elevator and drilling
slowly will prevent these problems.
