Step 1: Installing the Aileron Pushrod Wires
Using a modeling knife, cut away all but one arm from a large "4-point" servo horn.
Enlarge the fourth hole out from the center of the servo arm using a 5/64" diameter drill bit.
Install the 90º bend in one 3-3/8" long aileron pushrod wire into the hole that you just enlarged, using the snap keeper
provided. When installing the snap keeper, make sure it "snaps" firmly into place over the pushrod wire.
The pushrod wire should be on top of the servo arm.
Step 2: Installing the Control Horns & Clevises
Use a couple of pieces of masking tape to hold the aileron centered.
