Side trimmed for servo wire clearance,
Completed servo tray. Snappy!
Lots of good info in this picture. Block not used with Z21 strut.
Check the fit of the servo in the tray. You
will have to cut a recess for the servo
wire in one block.
Make sure that the servo is a tiny bit
taller that the mount, otherwise, the
strap won’t tighten the servo.
Use two servo screws (not supplied) to
attach the strap.
Cut your 2-56 pushrod to length so that
the rudder servo is about a half inch
from the transom.
Install your solder clevis or “Z” bend,
attach the pushrod to the mounted
servo, and put the pushrod through the
hole you made.
We like to use a steel clevis or “Z” bend
on the servo end, and a threaded clevis
on the rudder end. This allows you to
adjust the pushrod length from outside
the radio box.
Screw on the rudder clevis so that about
1/8 inch is inside the clevis (for
adjustment), and attach it to the rudder
control arm.
Make sure that the servo arm is straight
up.
Glue the servo tray to the tub floor,
adjusting the position of the tray so that
the rudder is straight.
