 2. Use a felt-tipped pen to trace the outline of the
slot for the micro control horn onto the hinge.
 3. Use scissors to notch the hinge based on
the position traced in the previous step. This is
necessary to provide clearance for the rudder
control horn.
 4. Apply a small amount of foam-safe CA on the
side of the hinge that will be inserted in the rudder.
Make sure to apply CA to both sides of the hinge
to glue it securely in the rudder.
 5. Insert the hinge half-way into the rudder. Allow
the CA to fully cure before proceeding. Do not use
CA accelerators as it will reduce the bond between
the hinge and rudder.
 6. Insert the tab from the micro control horn
through the hole in the rudder. Note the side of
the rudder the control horn is installed in. You may
need to open the slot slightly with a hobby knife
and #11 blade. Ensure the control horn has a snug
fit, not a loose fit.
 7. Use a micro control horn backplate to secure the
control horn in the rudder.
