Carefully
fl ex the elevator and rudder back and forth a
few times to about a 45° angle to loosen the hinge line.

4. Fit the elevator pushrod into the outer hole in the
elevator horn and snap a 90° pushrod connector over the
wire so it won’t come off. (The connectors can also be
installed/removed after the plane is together, but it’s easier
to do it now.)
❏
5. Guide the pushrod wire up through the pushrod tube in
the fuselage as you slide the horizontal stabilizer (stab) into
position. Insert the wire into the screw-lock connector on the
elevator servo and slide the stab the rest of the way in.
Center the slot in
the stab with the
slot in the fuselage.
❏
6. Center the slot in the stab with the slot in the fuselage
for the vertical stabilizer (fi n).
