19. Install the final elevator clevis and control horn.

Use low-tack tape to hold the elevator centered for

the next step.

20. Secure the two wheel collars onto the final elevator

pushrods using two 3mm x 8mm machine screws and a

#2 Phillips screwdriver. It will be necessary to trim (and

possibly bend) the final elevator pushrod to prevent it

from hitting the pushrod connector. Once complete coat

this entire joint with 6-minute epoxy.

Important: You must use threadlock on the two

3mm x 8mm machine screws to prevent them from

vibrating loose. If they do, you may lose control of

your aircraft. Make sure you use threadlock

on these two screws.
