Optional Rudder

The P-51D Mustang BL has the option to make the rudder functional.
The pushrod and control horn are included with the airplane and all
that is required is one additional servo.

2. Slide the pushrod into the fuselage with

the “Z” bend facing forward.

3. Using a hobby knife, cut around the counterbalance

at the top of the rudder and cut away the brace at
the bottom of the rudder.

4. Place the control horn so that the holes that the

clevis attaches to is over the hinge line of the
rudder. Using a small drill bit or sharpned piece
of wire, make the holes through the rudder for the
control horn screws. Place the backplate of the
control horn on the opposite side of the rudder and
use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws
holding the rudder control horn in place. Only tighten
the screws until they just start to compress the
foam, taking care not to overtighten them.

1. To install the rudder servo into the fuselage, glue the

servo (PKZ1080 SV80 Short Lead 3-Wire Servo) in
the servo pocket with silicone adhesive, epoxy or
hot glue with the output spline facing forward.
