the centre line. Check that everything is square and true. Leave the
adhesive to cure.
i. Clean up the upper surface of the epoxy join and dry fit the supplied
centre piece to the V tail join. Adjust as required to get a close fit of the
centre piece to the V tail.
j. Epoxy in place ensuring that the holes align with those in the V tail
2. V tail push rods
a. Fix the control horns as required. I removed the horns from their
mounting bases and epoxied them directly into slots in the control
b. Make the push rods from two 1 metre lengths of 0.9mm diameter piano
wire.
c. Form L bends on the ends of each
d. Slide the push rod into the factory fitted outer and fit the L bend into the
control horn.
Fuselage
Mount all the RC equipment well forward in the fuselage in order to achieve the
correct CoG without adding any lead.
1. V Tail servos
a) Trim the ply servo tray to fit the chosen servos
b) Fix the servo tray in position by using epoxy to bond it to the fuselage
sides
c) Make sure the tray is fitted such that the servo horns are at the same
height as the pre-installed push rod outers.
d) My servos are fitted in the area of 130mm to 155mm measured back from
the fuselage nose.
e) Make up two short push rods long enough to reach the V tail push rods
and overlap by 20mm. Make L bends in the end of each
f) Centre the servo horns and the V tail surface.
g) Fit the short push rods into the servo horns.
