Step 2
Measure in 1/2-inch (13mm) from the inside edge of the
elevator on the bottom. This will mark the center for the
control horn.
Note: The bottom of the elevator will have no black
trim. The trim is on the top of the elevator, and will align
with the trim on the top of the stabilizers.

Step 3
Position the control horn on the elevator. The front (straight
edge of the horn) will align with the tapered edge of the
hinge line as shown. Align the center line of the horn aligned
with the mark made in the previous step. Use a felt-tipped
pen to transfer the location for the three mounting holes on
the elevator.

Step 4
Use a drill and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill the holes
for the horn mounting screws. Drill the holes 5/8-inch
(16mm) deep.
Hint: Wrap a piece of tape around the drill bit so you
can drill the depth of the holes accurately. The tape will
indicate when you reach the proper depth.

Step 5
Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to thread a 2mm x 16mm self-
tapping screw into each of the holes. This will cut threads in
the wood.

Step 6
Place 2–3 drops of thin CA into each hole. This will harden
the threads and prevent the screws from pulling loose.

Step 7
Thread a control horn end on the control horn until the top
edge of the end is 1-inch (25mm) from the base of the horn
as shown.
