12. Locate the two 2-56 x 6" [152mm] aileron pushrods,
2 nylon clevises, and 2 nylon FasLink ™ pushrod keeper. Screw
the clevis onto the threaded end of the pushrod by rotating
the clevis 18 complete revolutions. A Great Planes 4-in-1
Installation Tool (GPMR8035) makes this task much easier.
❏ ❏
13. Place the clevis in the control horn without snapping
it shut. Mark the center of the servo arm on the pushrod.
Remove the clevis from the horn and make a 90° bend in the
pushrod at the mark.
❏ ❏
14. Place a silicone clevis keeper on the pushrod. Then
place a FasLink on the pushrod and remove the excess
pushrod with a rotary tool or diagonal pliers. Connect the
clevis to the control horn but do not snap in place. Connect
the bent end to the servo. Re-center the servo and adjust
the linkage by screwing the clevis either in or out until the
aileron is straight. Once the aileron is straight, snap the clevis
in place, attach the FasLink, and slide the clevis keeper over
the clevis.

15. Repeat steps 6-14 for the other wing.

2. Slide the horizontal stabilizer through the slot in the
fuselage. Using a ruler, center the trailing edge by measuring
from the fuselage to the tip of the stabilizer on both sides.
