Carefully install your elevator and rudder servos into the
servo tray, making sure that the servo output shafts are
toward the back of the fuselage, as shown.
☞
The hole in the servo tray is precut to fit most micro
servos. Depending on the particular servos you're using, you
may need to modify the size of the hole.

STEP 1: INSTALLING THE ELEVATOR CONTROL SYSTEM
❑
Carefully slide the elevator pushrod assembly into the fuselage and guide the two threaded wires out through the
pushrod exit slots.

To make guiding the threaded wires through the exit slots easier, first spread the two pushrod
wires into a shallow "Y" shape.
❑
Position one nylon control horn onto the bottom of one
elevator half. When aligned properly, the centerline of the
control horn should be 5/8" out from the inside edge of the
elevator half (at the hinge line) and the control horn should
be angled toward the fuselage side so that it will line up
better with the pushrod wire.
❑
When satisfied with the alignment, mark and drill 5/64"
diameter pilot holes through the elevator half for the control
horn mounting screws.
