Section Two: Assembly Instructions
24. Attaching the (optional) aileron horns
Assemble the “Twin” horns 22, and glue them in the recesses in both
ailerons (wing panels 7 + 8) using CA Glue and activator, as described
earlier.
28. Installing the cable sleeves
To avoid kinking the aileron servo leads, glue 18 mm lengths of snake
outer sleeve (3.2mm OD) in the recess where the cables exit the wing.
29. Installing the firewall
Glue the firewall 40 in place using thick CA glue. Don’t use activator for
this joint, as you will need a certain amount of time to position and align
the firewall correctly.
30. Gluing the cowl screw support in place
Glue the cowl screw support 42 at the front end of the motor pod.
26. Installing the aileron servos
Wrap adhesive tape round the servos to prevent glue running inside the case.
Fit the pre-formed aileron pushrods 26 through the second hole from the
outside of the servo output arms.
Press the servos and leads into the recesses and channels, and thread
the plain end of the pre-formed aileron pushrods 26 through the swivel
barrels mounted on the aileron horns.
Check once more that the servos are at center before tightening the grub-
screws 24 in the swivel barrels.
We recommend applying a drop of medium-strength thread-lock fluid to
the grubscrews to prevent them working loose.
27. Servo lead length, aileron connections
Draw the servo leads out of the wings 7 + 8 where the wing meets the
fuselage.
25. Preparing the aileron servos
See “10. Preparing the servos”.
