SECTION 16: RUDDER CONTROL SYSTEM INSTALLATION

(1) Adjustable Servo Connector Assembly
(1) 23-3/4" Nylon Pushrod
(2) 5-7/8" Threaded Pushrod Wires
Kwik Bond Thin C/A
# 1 Phillips Head Screwdriver
# 2 Phillips Head Screwdriver
Wire Cutters
Needle Nose Pliers
Excel Modeling Knife
Step 1: Installing the Rudder Pushrod Assembly
Slide the plain end of one 5-7/8" long threaded pushrod wire into each end of the nylon pushrod tube.
Thread the wires into the tube until 1/2" of threaded wire extends past the ends of the tube.
Apply a couple of drops of thin C/A to the ends of the tube. The C/A will "wick" into the tube, securing the wires
firmly in place.
Using a modeling knife, cut away and remove two arms from a large "4-point" servo horn.
Using a modeling knife, cut away and remove the covering material from over the rudder pushrod exit hole in the left
side of the fuselage. The hole is located 6-3/4" in front of the rudder hinge line and 3/4" above the bottom of the fuselage.

servo horn, install an adjustable servo connector into the
second hole out from the center of one servo arm.
Apply a drop of thin C/A to the connector nut to keep it
from coming loose during flight.
Snap the clevis (attached to the pushrod) into the third
hole out from the center of the opposite servo arm.
