ÿ 2 ­ Servo clevises
ÿ 2 ­ control horn trumpet bases
ÿ 2 ­ trumpet clevises. (black plastic)

Possition the trumpet base at the edge of the Elevator beveled edge 1­1/4" from the Rudder. Mark the spot and drill a
3/32" dia. hole through the Elevator. Install the trumpets using the supplied hardware. Do not over tighten the screws.
NOTE: Strengthen the holes by applying a few drops of CA glue in each hole to reduce the amount of balsa
compression.
Install the Elevator connecting rods to the Servo Arms and
trumpets.
NOTE: Make sure the Servo Arms exit on opposite sides to
ensure the Elevators will travel in the same direction. If you are
connecting the same receiver channel you will need a Y Servo
extension and one 18 inch extension.
We will show the standard set­up of installing Elevator Servos on
both sides of the Fuselage using the hardware supplied from your
radio. You can also mount Servo(s) on the Servo Tray at the front of
the Fuselage. You can also use just one Elevator Servo with the
optional Elevator Joiner.
You will need to connect 2 x 18 inch Servo leads if you are
connecting the 2 Servos to different receiver channels.
