2. Position the horn on the rudder so the holes in

the horn align with the rudder hinge line.



3. Use a felt-tipped pen to transfer the location of

the control horn mounting screws to the rudder.



4. Use a pin vise and 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit to

drill the two locations for the control horn mounting

screws.



5. Secure the control horn to the rudder using two

2mm x 12mm sheet metal screws and a control

horn backplate. Tighten the screws using a #1

Phillips screwdriver.

6. Use the radio system to center the rudder servo.

Install the servo horn so it is perpendicular to

the servo center line. The servo horn has an odd

number of splines, so rotate it until the arms are

aligned, rather than using the sub-trim function

from the radio. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the

arm that aligns with the rudder pushrod.



7. Remove the horn and use a side cutter to remove

the arms from the servo horn that will not be used.

5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 to secure the rudder

servo in the fuselage. The rudder servo is on the

right side of the fuselage.

6. Use hook and loop tape to install the receiver in

the fuselage. Plug a 3-inch (76mm) servo extension

in the throttle channel of the receiver. Plug the

leads from the rudder and elevator servos into the

receiver at this time. Plug the lead from the speed

control into the 3-inch (76mm) servo extension.

Route the servo leads so they are neatly tucked

under the servo tray and won’t interfere with the

operation of the aileron servo.

7. Secure the remote receiver in the fuselage using

hook and loop tape.
