4. Rigging of the stabilizer
Battery box in the fin: Check if the securing wire 10L35 (made from piano
wire) is installed. If a battery is to be installed refer to section 4.2.5, connect
the battery.
Cautiong: Rigging of the horizontal tailplane is only permitted with nose
down trim-setting. Therefore operate the trim release lever and push the
control stick forward, then release the lever to engage the trim (don't operate
the trim control knob, the trim should not be pushed to the most nose down
position).
Screw the tool W 38/2 into the securing plate (near the top of the left surface
of the fin). Pull out the securing plate with the tool, move it downwards to
engage in the rigging position. Set the stabilizer on, so that the roller at the
fuselage side push rod is inserted into the funnel at the elevator.
Watch carefully the procedure!
When the stabilizer is set down and laying
on the fin, push it aft. The roller will engage
and slide forward in the funnel if you hold
the elevator in the pertinent position.
Release the securing device by pulling out
with the tool and engage the securing device
by lifting the tool. The securing plate must be
flush with the surface of the fin. Screw out the tool.
Check for correct elevator connection by looking from the rear into the
gap at the right hand side of the rudder.
5. Rigging of the outboard wing panels (20m wing extensions or 18m or 17,2m
wing tips): Insert the wing tip extensions into the wing. Press in the locking
pin with your finger.
Insert the wing tip until the aileron connector starts to slide onto the aileron.
Strike firmly with the palm of your hand on to the wing tip to lock in the
wing tip extension.
6. Tape the gaps of the wing-fuselage junctions and the wing joints.
7. Execute a positive control check, one helper to hold firmly the control
surfaces is needed.
