This section details the installation of the elevator

bellcrank for the control line version of the PT-19.

If you are building the radio controlled version,

please skip to the next section. If you plan on

using your model for both RC and CL, then you

will want to perform the steps in this section.

1. Use a hobby knife with a new #11 blade to cut

a slit in the covering on the left side of the fuselage

for the elevator leadout wires to exit. Also cut a slit

in the left wing tip for the leadout wire guide to fit

into the wing.

2. Use a trim seal iron to iron the covering at the

fuselage and wing tip to create a finished look to

your model.

3. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the top of the

elevator bellcrank as shown. This is necessary

as the bellcrank must be disassembled to fit into

the fuselage and returned to its proper position

when reassembled.

4. Use a 5.5mm nut driver to remove the nut from

the bellcrank assembly. Remove the flanged washer

and bellcrank from the bellcrank assembly base.

Place all items aside for later.
