16. Use tape or small spring clamps to hold the ailerons

in the neutral position. Connect the clevises on the pushrods
to the torque rod horns. Mark the pushrods where they cross
the outer holes of the aileron servo arm. Make a 90 degree
bend at the marks on the pushrods and cut off the excess
pushrod 1/4" [6.4mm] beyond the bend. Attach the pushrods
to the servo arm using two FasLinks.

Thread the clevis up or down on the pushrod as necessary to

center the ailerons with the servo arm centered.

Assemble the Tail Section

1. Temporarily mount the wing onto the fuselage using two

4x30mm screws and two 4mm fl at washers.

2. Slide the horizontal stabilizer into the stab slot and center

it left and right. Stand back approximately 10’ [3m] and view
the model from behind. Confi rm that the wing and stab are
parallel. If not, remove the stab and lightly sand the slot until
the two align symmetrically. Measure the distance between
the wing tips and stab tips and make any adjustments to make
the measurements equal.
