o 3. Attach an adjustable clevis to the outer holes of the
servo arm and rudder control horn. Attach the arm to the
servo with the servo arm screw. Install a 6-3/4" [170mm]
pushrod into the clevises, center the control surface, and
use 2 x 4mm self-tapping screws to secure the clevises to
the pushrod.
o 4. Install the elevator pushrod in the same manner using
the remaining 6-3/4" [170mm] pushrod. Use some diagonal
cutters or a rotary tool to trim the pushrod so that it extends
1/2" [13mm] past the clevis.

o 1. Trim the covering from the landing gear slots in the
fuselage. This slit is located just under the LE of the wing root.
o 2. Locate the wheel spats and open up the spat
mounting hole.
o o 3. Fit the 3 x 25mm machine screw (axle) through the
axle hole in the wheel and secure the wheel to the axle using
a 3mm nut, 3mm washer, and threadlocking compound. Be
sure the nut is loose enough to allow the wheel to rotate
freely on the axle. Add a 3mm washer, wheel spat, landing
gear, second 3mm washer, and 3mm nut to the axle. When
assembled correctly, the tapered sides of the landing gear
should face the front of the plane and sweep slight rearward
when installed. Repeat this step for the other landing gear.
