Q Q 14. Silver solder the clevis to the cable. If you
find it difficult to cut the cable with wire cutters, use a
MultiPro with a cut-off wheel or tin the cable in the
area where it is to be cut with wire cutters.
LJ U 15. Place the control horn on the aileron. Drill
1/16" holes in the aileron for the horn mounting
screws. Remove the aileron and use a pin to poke
holes in the aileron where the control horn will be
mounted. Saturate the area and the holes for the
horn mounting screws with thin CA. Sand the area
smooth.
Q 1. Connect the aileron servo to your receiver and
turn on your radio. Center the aileron servo with
your transmitter and make sure both ailerons are
neutral. You can still do this without snapping the
ball socket onto the ball by just fitting the ball socket
over the ball, but not snapping it on. It is easiest to
center the aileron servo and ailerons now while the
ball linkage is easily accessible rather than at the
flying field when you will have disconnect the ball
link and remove the servo to make an adjustment.
LJ 2. Connect the ball link to the servo arm or wheel
on your aileron servo with the small nut included with
the ball link. Use thread locking compound or epoxy to
make sure the nut is secure.
U 3. Mix a batch of 30-minute epoxy and glue the
sliders to the #1 ribs. Adjust the sliders so you can
connect the ball socket to the ball on the servo without
bending the aileron cable out of its way. Snap the ball
socket onto the ball. Do not disturb the assembly until
the epoxy is fully cured.
U Q 16. Mount the control horn to the aileron with
two #2 x 1/2" screws. Fit the aileron to the wing
with the hinges and connect the clevis to the control
horn.
Q Q 17. Place the ball socket over the ball link but
do not snap it on. Adjust the ball socket on the
threaded coupler so the aileron is neutral.
U 18. Return to step 1 and connect the other aileron
the same way. Do not snap the ball socket onto the
ball link until instructed to do so.
U 4. If you have to make any adjustments to the
aileron servo or connection, make them now before
you sheet the rest of the center section. You can
easily remove the servo from the compartment after
you sheet the center section by sliding the servo tray
out, but it is easier to access the ball and socket now.
Q 5. Use the remainder of the 1/16" sheeting to
sheet the top center section of the wing forward of
the main spar.
