fuselage. Make sure the pushrod is located in the
correct tube or the steering arm and servo will not

to prevent them from vibrating loose.
3. Use a 1.5mm hex wrench to start the 3mm x
4mm setscrew in the steering arm.
4. Locate the pre-bent tail wheel wire. Note the
position of the notch in the wire: this will be aligned
with the setscrew in the steering arm to prevent the
wire from rotating when installed.
5. Position the steering arm in the bracket as shown.
Slide the tail wheel wire through the bracket and
steering arm. Tighten the setscrew in the steering
arm on the flat of the tail wheel wire. Use a 1.5mm
hex wrench to tighten the setscrew.
Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners
to prevent them from vibrating loose.
6. Slide the 1-inch (25mm) tail wheel on the tail
wheel wire. Use a 3mm x 4mm machine screw and
2mm wheel collar to secure the tail wheel to the
wire. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the
screw in the wheel collar.
