16. Hold two ends of the pull-pull cable together, making

sure they are even. Cut the cable at the midpoint to create
two equal lengths. Route the non-threaded end of the cable
through the hole in the rear of the fuselage. Pull the cable
through the fuselage to the rudder servos.

17. Assemble one end of each half of the cable as shown

in the sketches above. Each clevis should be threaded
halfway onto the coupler. Do not crimp the swage fitting yet
as it will need to slip for adjustments.

18. Attach the clevis end of the cable to the 3rd hole out

on the rudder control horns and route the unassembled end
of the cable into the fuselage through the teardrop shaped
holes in the tail. Pull the cable forward to the rudder servos.

19. Assemble the remaining end of the cable as you

did before.

20. Connect the pull-pull cables to the aft rudder servo

arm extension as shown.

21. Once both cables are installed, turn on your radio and

center the servo arms. Center the rudder.

22. With the radio still on and the rudder centered, pull the

slack from each cable at the clevises. Do not pull the cables
too tight. A slight amount of slack is acceptable.

23. When satisfied with the cable tension, crimp the

swage fitting securely in place using pliers. This will secure
the cable length.

24. Fine tuning of the cable tension can be performed by

adjusting the clevis on the coupler. When done adjusting the
tension, secure the clevis by tightening the nut against the clevis.
Be sure to apply a drop of thread locker to hold the nut in place.
