Step 2: Installing the Pushrod
❑
Using a modeling knife remove the covering material from over the elevator pushrod exit hole in the right side of the
fuselage. The hole is located 9/16" down from the bottom of the stabilizer and 2-7/8" in front of the rudder hinge line.
❑
Using a modeling knife, remove all but one arm from a small "4-point" servo horn. The remaining arm should
have at least four holes in it.
❑
Insert the Z-Bend in the 305mm long pushrod wire into
the fourth hole out from the center of the servo arm.
☛
You will have to enlarge the hole using a 1/16" drill bit
so the pushrod will fit properly.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the longer portion of the pushrod wire is toward
the top of the servo arm.
❑
Connect your radio system and plug the elevator servo into the receiver. Double-check that the elevator trim lever on
your transmitter is centered and turn on the radio system.
❑
Slide the pushrod into the pushrod housing (on the left
side of the fuselage) and install the servo horn onto the servo,
making sure it's centered.
☛
The servo horn should point toward the fuselage side, as
shown.
❑
Install the retaining screw to secure the servo horn into
place.
❑
Using a modeling knife, cut off a 1/4" long piece of
clevis retainer tubing.
❑
Slip the piece of tubing onto the base of one clevis.
