OUTER HOLE

3. Connect one of the elevator pushrods to the outer
hole in one of the horns. Note that the horn should be on
the outside of the main part of the wire. Slide the pushrod
into the fuselage and position the horn over the elevator
so the holes in the horn align with the pivot point/leading
edge of the elevator. Push the horn down onto the elevator
so the mounting posts will make indentations in the elevator
marking their location.
❏
4. Remove the elevator. Drill 3/32" [2.4mm] holes at the
marks (or use a 3/32" [2.4mm] brass tube sharpened on the
end to cut perfectly sharp holes).
❏
5. Reattach the elevator to the stab and remove the pins
from the hinges. With the pushrod connected to the horn,
mount the horn to the top of the elevator by pushing the
mounting plate tightly to the mounting posts up from the
bottom.
❏
6. Securely glue in the hinges with at least eight to ten
drops of thin CA on both sides of each hinge, or until the
hinges stop absorbing CA (make sure the CA isn’t running
into the hinge gap). Also add a few drops of thin CA around
the base of the control horn, around the mounting plate
and around the mounting posts to make certain the horn is
permanent and secure.
❏
7. Mount the horn and hinge the other elevator to the
other side of the stab the same way.
