Now to the rudder tray
#1 Test fit the tray, in the rear edge of
the canopy opening. It will need to be
cut down slightly to fit the fuse properly
(warning do not force fit; it can ruin the
outer finish and break the fragile sides)
Open the slotted area in the former
slightly and trim the tray, to allow for
some adjusting. There may be some
modification required.
#2 When the tray has a good fit, install
it parallel to the angle that the cables will
run down the fuse, and exit in the rear.
Then, using a pencil, draw a light line on
the fuse to mark where the tray will rest.
#3 Next, remove the tray and add balsa
strips 3mm below the line marked, and
glue them in with CA or quick hardening
epoxy.
#4 Reinstall the tray and glue it in on
the rails, using CA or half hour epoxy.
Rudder installation
#1
Using the supplied rudder pin, test
fit the rudder. Slide the pin in from the
bottom and mark how long the rod will
need to be, then bend a 90deg bend in
the wire and cut to about 30mm long.
#2 Cut a trench, in the forward section
of the rudder, deep enough to sink the
rudder hinge wire 90deg section.
#3 Cut the wire; leave enough room to
add a small servo mounting screw, to
screw down on the wire, retaining it in
the rudder. There is a hard point in-
stalled in the bottom section of the fuse
