Rudder Installation

Required Parts
Fuselage Rudder
Hinge rod
Required Tools and Adhesives
Drill Pliers
Petroleum Jelly/Industrial lubricant

1. Apply some industrial lubricant to the rod. Pass the
rod through the hinges in rudder and fuselage vertical fin
separately. This helps remove any possible dirt in the hinges
and makes for easier final assembly.

2. Mate the rudder and fuselage vertical stabilizer
and carefully pass the rod through hinges. This can be
accomplished by two ways. 1. Use a drill on slow speed
and gently pass through the rod. If there is any resistance,
back out and repeat. 2. Use a pair of pliers and push the rod
through the hinges. Make sure not to buckle the rod. This is
a rather slow process and needs attention.
