Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners

to prevent them from vibrating loose.

steering arm. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten

the screw in the steering arm on the flat of the nose

gear wire.

Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners

to prevent them from vibrating loose.

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

Align the nose gear so the wheel is parallel to the

fuselage centerline. Tighten the screw in the pushrod

connector to secure the pushrod wire. Use side cutters

to trim the excess pushrod wire 1/4-inch (6mm) past

the connector as shown.

When trimming the airplane to track straight on the

ground, the adjustment is made in the linkage for the

nose wheel steering, not with the rudder trim. This will

cause the rudder to become out of trim in the air.
