12. Test fi t the rudder to the fuselage by inserting the
other sides of the hinges into their mating slots and the nylon
tab on the tail wheel wire into the larger slot at the bottom of
the fuse. If necessary, use a hobby knife to enlarge the hinge
slots to more easily accept the hinges.
❏
13. When satisfi ed with the fi t, remove the rudder from
the fuse and remove the tail wheel wire from the rudder. Mix
up a small batch of epoxy and apply a light coating to the
end of the tail wheel wire that fi ts into the rudder and also
to both sides of the nylon tab. Reinstall the rudder onto the
fuse (using the CA hinges) taking care to wipe away any
excess epoxy with alcohol. Remove the pins from the hinges
and position the rudder against the TE of the fi n. The hinge
gap between the rudder and fi n should only be wide enough
to allow a small line of light through. When satisfi ed, apply
6 drops of thin CA glue to the center of each hinge on both
sides (the hinges will hold the rudder in place while the
epoxy on the tail wheel wire and tab hardens). When the
CA has dried, gently pull on the rudder to confi rm that it is
securely glued in place.
INSTALL THE TAIL PUSHRODS
AND SERVOS
❏
1. Thread a nylon clevis onto each of the 27" [686mm]
pushrods along with silicone clevis retainers. Attach the
clevis of one pushrod to the outer hole of a large control horn.
Insert the pushrod into the elevator pushrod exit slot. Use
the pushrod to position the control horn onto the underside
of the right elevator half with the holes aligned over the hinge
line and mark the location of the control horn mounting holes.
Drill 5/64" [2mm] holes at your marks and install the control
horn using two 2-56 x 1/2" [13mm] screws and a control
horn backplate.
❏
2. Trim the bottom corner from the rudder control horn
(small control horn). Install the control horn onto the left side
of the rudder using two 2-56 x 1/2" [13mm] machine screws
in the same manner as you did with the elevators.
