on each side and alternate side often. The cuts will
eventually meet in the middle of the balsa core and
complete the through slot.
Remember to maintain the
cut perpendicular to the rudder surface
4. Trial fit the rudder horn into the slot for fitment. Loosen
slots (not length) if needed. Set up left and right rudder
horns according to the illustration below. You will need to
snip off approximately 4mm from the bottom of the horn in
order to get two horn to seat back to back.
5. Use a small amount of thin CA to
tag glue the horns in place temporarily. This will allow
you to double check horn alignment before permanently sealing the horns. Break off tag-
glued joint if needed to realign horns.
6. When satisfied with horn alignment, glue both horns in place with thin CA. Saturate the
balsa core with thin CA and then harden it with CA Kicker. This step is very critical as it
dictates the bonding strength of the entire setup. If your slots are too loose, use gap-
filling medium CA to fill the voids.
Now we are ready to hinge rudder with the provided heavy-duty CA hinges. For this installation
we only require three (3) pieces of the CA hinges.

7. Locate your CA hinges and draw a center line length wise on each CA hinge as shown.
8. CA hinge slots have all been precut for you in the rudder leading edge. Install all three
hinges up to the center line. Glue them in place with thin CA. Do not use CA Kicker for
this part of installation.
9. CA hinge slots have also been precut in the trailing edge of the vertical fin. Line up CA
hinges with the slots and slide rudder into place. Make sure that vertical fin and rudder are
budding against each other, thus eliminating any gap. Maintain a small gap between top of
