32. Locate a 2mm ball link from the hardware bag. Measure 3” back from the

leading edge of the rudder and drill a 3/16” hole to accept the shank on the ball
link. Scuff the shaft of the ball link and glue the ball link into the hole as shown
below.

33. Next install the rudder hinges using the same procedure as with the Ailerons and

Elevators. Use painters tape to hold the rudder in place while the epoxy dries.
