7. Drill the servo arm at the second hole outboard using

a 5/64 [2mm] drill. Hold the elevators at zero throw and mark
where to bend the elevator pushrod.

8. Bend the pushrod 90° and trim the excess pushrod so

that at least 1/4" [6.4mm] of pushrod remains. Connect the
pushrod to the second hole of the servo arm. Use a nylon
Faslink to secure the pushrod.

9. Fit the other pushrod to the rudder guide tube on the

right side of the fuselage.

10. Assemble the rudder horn as shown in the sketch. Fit

a #6 flat washer under the head of the 6-32 x 2" machine
screw and fit the screw to the rudder so that the head of the
screw is on the left side of the rudder. Use a #6 flat washer

and a #6 lock nut to secure the screw. Now screw a nylon
torque rod horn onto the threaded end of the screw so that it
is flush with the end. Connect the clevis.

11. Prepare a servo. Install the rudder servo the same

way you installed the elevator servo. Bend the pushrod 90°
and trim the excess pushrod so that at least 1/4" [6.4mm] of
pushrod remains. Connect the pushrod to the second hole of
the servo arm using a nylon Faslink to secure it.

MOTOR, ESC, & RADIO INSTALLATION

1. Install the

standard X-mount
to the back of the
Rimfire .32 motor
using the screws
supplied with the
motor. Apply a drop
of threadlocker to
the threads before
installing the screws.

2. Orient the motor wires as shown and attach the motor

to the firewall with four 4-40 x 1/2" socket head cap screws,
four #4 lock washers and four #4 flat washers. Use thread
locking compound on the screw threads for added security.
