Section 9: Installing the Control Horns
Step 5. Using a 1/16" drill bit, drill two holes through the
elevator so the control horn can be mounted.
Hint: It's helpful to cover the area around the control horn
top and bottom so the covering is not accidentally damaged.
Step 6. Attach the elevator control horn using the hardware
provided (two screws and backplate) and fasten it in place using
a Phillips screwdriver.
Step 7. Attach the other control horn to the opposite elevator
half using the same method.
Step 8. Install the rudder control horns on the left and right
side of the rudder. Measure up 1
rudder on one side as shown below. You will find the control
horn will be centered on the black trim line of the rudder. This
will serve as the reference point and represent where the bottom
edge of the control horn will be located.
Step 9. Place one control horn adjacent to the mark you made
in Step 8. Position it so the clevis holes are lined up over the
hinge line of the rudder and vertical fin, similar to the procedure
in Step 4.
Step 10. Once you're satisfied with the location, mark the
screw holes with a pencil or felt-tipped pen, through the holes
in the horn into the rudder. Make sure the horn is centered over
the hinge line.
