3. Use 30-minute epoxy to glue your hinges in place.

Remember to align them and to defl ect the rudder both ways
when you install it.

4. Use tape to hold your rudder in place while the

epoxy cures.

Install the Elevator & Rudder Servos

For the elevator and rudder servos, we recommend that you
use Futaba 9155 digital servos. For the elevators only, you
can use a metal geared servo with a minimum 100 oz-in [7.2
kg-cm] torque rating but you should expect a slower response
and control blow-back at higher speeds. Note: You must use
a servo with a minimum 150 oz-in [11 kg-cm] torque rating for
the
rudder.

1. Trim the covering from the elevator servo bay on the

right side of the fuselage as shown.

2. Trim the covering from the elevator and rudder servo

bays on the left side of the fuselage.

3. Attach a 36" [914mm] servo lead extension to the three

tail servos. If you anticipate mounting your receiver in the
aft-most equipment tray, you may use shorter servo lead
extensions.

4. Fit your rudder and elevator servos in place. Route the

wires under the formers as shown.
