❏
6. Connect the top aileron servo lead extensions (if
applicable) and then tape the connectors to the insides
of the cabanes. Be sure that you can easily connect and
disconnect the top wing.
Steps 7-10 should only be completed if you did not install
servos in the top wing. If you did install servos in the top wing,
skip to step 11.
❏
7. If you did not install aileron servos into the top wing, cut
off the top three holes from four small control horns. Enlarge
the remaining holes from only two of the control horns that
you just cut with a 5/64" [2mm] drill bit.
❏
8. Locate the hardwood mounting points in the ailerons
in line with the trailing edge. Attach the control horns with
the 5/64" [2mm] holes onto the bottom ailerons using four
2-56 x 3/8" [9.5mm] machine screws and backplates. Attach the
other two control horns to the upper ailerons in the same manner.
❏
9. Thread a nylon clevis 20 turns onto each of the
remaining 12" [305mm] pushrods. Fit a silicone clevis
retainer onto each clevis. Attach the clevises to the control
horns on the upper ailerons. Use small clamps or tape to
hold the upper and lower ailerons in the neutral position
and mark where the pushrods cross the holes in the bottom
aileron control horns.
❏
10. Make a 90° bend at both marks you made on the
pushrods. Cut off the excess pushrods 1/4" [6mm] beyond
the bends. Attach the pushrods to the bottom control horns
with nylon FasLinks.
