5. Use your radio system to center the rudder servo and attach either the supplied arm or an appropriate
arm for your servo. Thread one of the ball links about half way onto one of the threaded couplers. Feed
the loose end of one of the cables through a brass tube and then through the threaded coupler. Holding
the rudder centered, adjust the cable length as tight as possible while checking the ball link position over
the servo arm. When satisfied with the position, pinch the cable around the threaded coupler and then
feed the loose end back through the brass tube. Loop the cable back through the brass tube as before and
crimp the brass tube three times just tight enough not to cut the brass tube but enough to securely hold the
wire in place. Cut off the excess cable with wire cutters. Wick thin CA into the brass tube to help hold
the cable secure. Repeat for the other cable. Hint: Once you have established the position of the
threaded coupler on the cable, you can remove the ball link from the rudder horn to give you more
working slack in the fuselage. Re-install the ball link prior to setting the other cable.
6. Check the operation of the rudder using your radio and make sure there is no binding and the cables
are adjusted properly. You may have to tighten the cables after a few flights as they may stretch slightly
from the initial installation.
ENGINE INSTALLATION:
1. Depending on which motor you choice to use, you may need to make some engine stand offs to get the
required cowl clearance. If you use the Hacker A50-14S or equivalent you will need about 3/16 spacers. If
you use the Dualsky motor that OMP sells in the combo package, you will need to make 5/8” stand offs.
Notice that the engine center line needs to be offset to the left to compensate for the right thrust built into
the engine box.
2. Place the cowling in place on the fuselage and measure the distance from the firewall to about 1/8” in
front of the cowling. This figure represents the back of the spinner and will help you determine if you
need to space your engine out from the firewall using washers or additional wood dowel offsets. Mount
your engine securely using bolts, washers, and locknuts. The use of thread-lock is also highly
recommended for the engine bolts.
