STABILIZERS
NOTE:
Make sure to have some sort of protective foam on the work bench. This will
protect the paint surface from unwanted dents. Assemble both stabilizers simultane-
ously. On prototype elevator servos were installed in fuselage. It was later changed to
installation below. Mark
√ each step.
Inspect the hinge line and make sure elevator
operates freely.
Locate 2 x DS8711 servos and secure long HD
plastic servo horn to servo.
Connect both servos to RX and set up TX for
dual elevators. Centre both servos.
Cut slot in root of elevator and fuselage to clear servo.
Glue plywood inside stab. Note that servo horns must
be close to root and closets to TE.
Secure servos to plywood mounts.
Mark location of servo horn.
Cut hole in skin. Check servo horn
moves freely.
Draw line perpendicular across hinge line.
Cut slot for elevator horn and glue in position.
Make sure
pivot point on horn is direct in line with hinge line.
Run extension wires in harness and secure to formers. Note: It is very important
that wires do not touch tail pipe. Use protective sleeve if
you feel like it, although the prototype did not have.
If using Sullivan clevises you need to drill servo horn.
(standard holes will be too big and flutter will occur. Use
bearing links for best results)
Secure extension lead and servo wire with cable ties.
