❑
Slide the remaining nylon pushrod snap-link onto the
remaining 17-3/4" long pushrod wire and carefully make an
L-Bend and a "V" shaped bend in the pushrod wire. For this
pushrod though, the "V" shaped bend should be made away
from the L-Bend, as shown.
❑
Insert the L-Bend into the outermost hole in the remaining
nylon control horn so that the longer portion of the pushrod
wire is toward the left side of the control horn, and hook the
snap-link over the end of the wire.
❑
Dry-fit the control horn to the left side of the rudder,
making sure that the pushrod attachment holes are positioned
over the rudder hinge line and that the control horn is lined up
with the pushrod wire.
IMPORTANT
Remember not to glue the control horn to the
rudder yet.
❑
Center the rudder and the rudder servo horn, then mark
and make a Z-Bend in the pushrod wire.
☞
Remember to remove the control horn and pull the
pushrod wire forward to make this easier.
❑
Attach the servo horn to the pushrod, then place the servo
horn onto the servo, securing it into place using the retaining
screw provided with your servo mounting hardware.
❑
Glue the rudder control horn to the rudder using a small dab of 5 minute epoxy. Allow the epoxy to completely set up,
then center the rudder by using a pair of pliers to carefully open or close the "V" in the pushrod wire.
Step 3: Installing the Aileron Control System
❑
Carefully install your aileron servo into the aileron servo
tray, as shown. Again, depending on the size of your servo,
you may need to enlarge the size of the hole to fit.
