1. Manually position the rudder servo arm to point to the right side of the aircraft,
as shown.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use excessive force to move the servo arm. Damage to the
servo gears will result.
2. Align the vertical stabilizer with the fuselage and guide the rudder servo arm
through the hole of the vertical stabilizer base.
4. Ensure the soft silicone retaining sleeve is on the rudder pushrod assembly.
5. Slide the z-bend end of the rudder pushrod through the top of the outermost
hole of the rudder servo arm. Feed the pushrod through the hole until the
pushrod is seated as shown in the illustration.
6. Attach the pushrod clevis to the outermost hole of the rudder control horn by
gently prying open the clevis sides, inserting the clevis pin through the outermost
hole of the rudder control horn, and closing the side of the clevis back over the
clevis pin, capturing the rudder control horn between the clevis sides.
7. Slide the retaining sleeve over the clevis to keep the clevis sides from opening.
8. Align and press the tail
cone into the rear of the
fuselage and secure
in place with included
tape (

).
3. Secure the vertical stabilizer to the fuselage with three 2.5mm x 8mm Phillips
screws and a PH#1 screwdriver.
