Step 1: Installing the Aileron Pushrod Wires
❑
Using a modeling knife, cut away all but one arm from a large "4-point" servo horn.
❑
Enlarge the
fourth
hole out from the center of the servo arm using a 5/64" diameter drill bit.
❑
Install the 90º bend in one 3" long aileron pushrod wire into the hole that you just enlarged, using the snap keeper
provided. When installing the snap keeper, make sure it "snaps" firmly into place over the pushrod wire.
☞
The pushrod wire should be on top of the servo arm as shown.
❑
Center the aileron servo and install the servo arm
assembly making sure the servo arm is centered and the
pushrod wire is toward the wing tip.
❑
Install and tighten the servo arm retaining screw.
❑
Use a couple of pieces of masking tape to hold the aileron centered.
Step 2: Installing the Control Horns & Clevises
❑
Mount the control horn to the aileron, directly behind the
pushrod wire, using two 2mm x 12mm wood screws. Make
sure the control horn is parallel to the hinge line and that the
clevis attachment holes are lined up over the hinge line. The
centerline of the control horn should be approximately 5" out
from the inside edge of the aileron.
