.
NOTE: Depending on the type of servo that you use, you may have to bend the pushrod slightly in the middle to angle it up
from the wing so that it is aligned with the control horn without putting any bending force on the servo arm.
7.
Remove the pushrod from the servo
and remove the solder link from the
torque rod. Cut the pushrod at the mark.
Slip the solder link onto the end of the
pushrod so that the end of the rod
extends 1/8" beyond the barrel on the
link and solder into position, using
enough heat to "sweat" the joint
completely.
8.
Reattach the pushrod to the servo and the aileron torque rods. The aileron should be approximately neutral. Final
adjustment will come later. Now fabricate and install the opposite pushrod assembly the same way.
FITTING THE WING TO THE FUSELAGE
For the following steps you will need:
The assembled wing
The fuselage
2 each 1/4-20 x 1-1/2" Nylon Wing Bolts
1 each 3/8" x 12" Iron on Covering Strip
1.
Now mount the wing onto the fuselage
and install the nylon bolts through the
wing and into the blind nuts installed in
the fuselage. Now remove the wing and
bolts form the fuselage.
2.
Take the 3/8" x 12" Iron-on Covering
Strip and apply it to the bottom of the
wing to cover the joint at the center of
the wing.
The strip should start at the bottom of the finger at the leading edge and wrap around the trailing edge and ending on the
top of the wing.
ASSEMBLING THE FUSELAGE
Preparing The Fuselage
For the following step you will need the fuselage.
The fuselage has been built and covered but there may be several openings that must now be opened up. If these
openings have not had the covering removed from them, you must use a sharp knife to cut away the covering from these
areas.
1.
Elevator & Rudder pushrod exits...
Located below the stabilizer at rear of
fuselage.
2.
Two screw holes for mounting landing
gear...
Located on the bottom of the fuselage
just ahead of the wing opening.
3.
Motor compartment drain hole...Located on the bottom of the fuselage just ahead of the firewall.
