2)
Remove the elevator and the hinges from the
horizontal stabilizer and set them aside for now.
❑
3)
Set the horizontal stabilizer onto the stabilizer
mounting platform and align the two wood screws with
the two predrilled holes in the platform. Tighten the
wood screws firmly to hold the stabilizer in place.
❑
4)
With the wing mounted to the fuselage and the
stabilizer in place, look carefully from the front of the
fuselage at both the wing and the stabilizer. When aligned
properly, the stabilizer should be level with the wing. If it
is not level, loosen the stabilizer mounting bolts and place
a thin shim on the lower side, between the stabilizer and
the mounting platform, and retighten the wood screws.

PARTS REQUIRED
TOOLS AND SUPPLIES REQUIRED
INSTALLING THE ELEVATOR SERVO
❑
{1} Nylon Inner Pushrod Tube
❑
{2} 2mm x 22mm Threaded Rods
❑
{2} Metal Clevises
❑
Kwik Bond Thin C/A
❑
Excel Modeling Knife
❑
# 1 Phillips Head Screwdriver
❑
Needle Nose Pliers
❑
Electric or Hand Drill
❑
1/16" Drill Bit
❑
5/64" Drill Bit
❑
Straight Edge Ruler
❑
Pen or Pencil
❑
Masking Tape
❑
1)
Install the four rubber grommets and four brass
collets onto the elevator servos' mounting lugs.
❑
2)
Place the elevator servo into the servo tray, mak-
ing sure that the servo output shaft is facing toward the
front of the fuselage.
❑
3)
Push the servo up against the left side of the tray.
While holding the servo in position, use a drill with a 1/16"
drill bit to drill pilot holes for the servo mounting screws.
❑
4)
Install and tighten the servo mounting screws to
hold the servo in place. See photo # 16 below.

INSTALLING THE ELEVATOR PUSHROD
❑
5)
Using a ruler and a modeling knife, measure and
cut the nylon inner pushrod tube to a length of 25-1/4".
❑
6)
Thread one 2mm x 22mm thread rod into each
end of the pushrod tube. Thread the rods in until 11/16"
of each threaded rod extends past the ends of the tube.
❑
7)
Thread one metal clevis onto the end of one of
the threaded rods. Thread the clevis on far enough to
leave room for adjustments later.
❑
8)
Test fit the four C/A hinges into the hinge slots
in the elevator. Each hinge should be inserted far enough
into the slots so that the centerline of the hinge is flush
with the leading edge. If the hinges cannot be inserted
deeply enough, use a modeling knife to carefully cut the
hinge slots deeper.
❑
9)
With each of the hinges centered, apply 3-4 drops
of Kwik Bond Thin C/A to the joint where the hinges and
the elevator meet. Allow a few seconds between drops
for the C/A to wick into the hinges, then turn the elevator
over and repeat this procedure on the other side. Let the
C/A dry for about 10 minutes before proceeding.
❑
10)
After the C/A has dried, snap the clevis into the
control horn preinstalled in the bottom of the elevator.
