4. How to install the elevator servo
Glue the rudder support - steven into the fuselage.
There is an opening for a servo in the steven.
Elevator is controlled by the servo screw inside the rudder with its drive forces being transmitted
via a pull-rod. This approach allows the elevator to be driven without any play. Stick the micro-
servo into the lower fin, leading the extension cable through the fuselage. Make a bearing to
guide the steel pull-rod on the elevator. Solder a threaded piece onto the pull-rod end (on the
servo side) and screw in the fork. Shorten the pull-rod as necessary. Fit the pull-rod onto the
servo.
5. Rudder installation
The rudder is mounted on clip-on hinges. Cut out the notches for rudder hinges with a razor
blade, insert the hinges inside, fixing them with a lean instantaneous cement. Clip the rudder to
hold.
Find the position of the rudder control horn so that the straight line connecting the holes in the
horn and the axis of rotation of the control surface is perpendicular to the surface of the stabilizer
and the horn itself is in the same level as the control wire coming from the fuselage. Glue the
rudder horn. The rudder is controlled by a pull-wire drive. Attach the terminals to the rudder and
join them with a servo using a pull-wire drive.
6. Fitting the cockpit
Cut out the cockpit transparent section using the mark line, glue it onto the plastic cockpit, trim it
then and grind a bit off to a desirable shape.
The cockpit is held in place with a pin and cockpit lock. Bore then the matching holes in the
fuselage and in the cockpit. Glue the pin in the front canopy. Glue the cockpit lock in the
fuselage.
