RADIO INSTALLATION
Locate the three control horns and 2x12mm
screws. Also locate three of the nylon clevises.
Thread a clevis onto the rudder control rod until
about 1/8" of threads are showing on the inside
of the clevis body. Snap it onto the outer hole in
one of the control horns. Position the horn on
the rudder so the holes line up with the hinge
line. (For smooth operation, you may have to
bend the pushrod so it runs parallel to the fuse-
lage.) Mark and drill 3/32" holes for the mount-
ing screws and secure the horn with two screws
and the nylon nut plate.
Repeat for the two elevator pushrods.
Mount two servos on the servo tray which is
already installed in your fuselage. These are
for elevator and rudder. Note their orientation in
RADIO INSTALLATION
the photo. Follow your radio's instruction man-
ual and make sure you use the grommets, eye-
lets, and screws furnished with your radio. Drill
1/16" pilot holes for the mounting screws before
insertion.
Hook the pushrods to the servo arms mark-
ing the proper length and making "Z" bends in
the wire ends. A Z-Bend Pliers is a handy tool
for this purpose. Note that the rods hook on the
outside of the servo. This is to allow room for
the aileron linkage when the wing is installed.
Mount the throttle servo tray into place with
four 2x8mm self-tapping screws in the fuselage
so the cutout for servo corresponds with your
throttle linkage. Mount the servo in place and
hook the throttle pushrod to the servo arm with
the "EZ Connect" furnished. Secure the body of
the EZ Connect to the arm with the small nut
furnished. Use the set-screw furnished to lock
the throttle pushrod wire in place. Trim the nylon
tube and wire as needed.
