4. Insert the rudder servo into the opening in the

servo tray inside the fuselage with the output shaft

toward the tail of the fuselage. Use a pencil to

mark the positions for the servo mounting screws

onto the servo tray.

5. Remove the rudder servo. Use a pin drill

and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill a hole

in the servo tray at the position marked in the

previous step.

6. Place 2–3 drops of thin CA into each of the

holes to harden the surrounding wood. This will

provide a harder surface for the screws to bite into

and make them more secure when installed.

7. Mount the servo to the servo tray using the two

screws provided with the servo. Use a #1 Phillips

screwdriver to tighten the screws. Slide the pushrod

into the pushrod connector at this time.

8. Use a ruler placed against the rudder and fin to

align the rudder with the fin.

9. Check to make sure the rudder servo is

centered using the radio system. Use a #1

Phillips screwdriver and 2mm x 4mm machine

screw to secure the rudder pushrod in the brass

pushrod connector.
