Step 84 Tail Pushrod Guides
Once the pushrod has cured, the servo position can be
fine tuned by moving the servo mount, generally position
the pitch plate assembly centered between the tail hub
and the tail gearbox. The instructions included with the
gyro will have specific instructions for the tail setup.
Insert two cable tie wraps in the rudder pushrod guides
and snug them up. Disconnect the ball link from the
rudder servo horn and adjust the guides and the angle of
the rudder servo to get the smoothest movement. Once
all binding has been removed tighten the cable ties with
pliers and trim the excess. Remember to tighten the
M2.5x12 socket cap screws in the rudder mount.
