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.
