13. Reattach the servo arm with the pushrod to the

ser vo. Mount the control hor n the same way as the
elevators with two 2-56 x 5/8" screws.

14. Mark the location of the tail gear wire on the rudder

and the nylon tail gear bearing on the fuselage.

15. Remove the rudder and drill a 7/64" hole 5/8" deep

in the leading edge at the mark you made for the tail gear
wire. Cut a groove in the rudder for the nylon tail gear
bearing (use a 5/32" brass tube sharpened at one end to
cut the groove the same way you did for the ailerons). Test
fit the tail gear wire in the rudder.

16. Cut a slot in the trailing edge of the fuse at the marks

you made for the nylon tail gear bearing. Without using any
glue, join the rudder to the fin with the tail gear wire.

17. Mount the aileron servo in the wing. Screw the nylon

torque rod connectors on the torque rods until they are
3/4" from the wing.

18. Use the 11" and 13" wire rods cut from the 35"

pushrods to make the aileron pushrods. Connect the
pushrods the same way you did for the elevator with the
nylon clevises and Faslinks.

1. Using a leftover 1/4" x 1/2" balsa stick, make the

forward and the aft wing fairings, and glue them in place.
Sand the fairings flush with the sides of the fuse.
