Collect the following items:
(2) 34” stranded cable
(4) 1/16 threaded couplers
(4) Snap-links
)2) 1/8 x 24” nylon tubing

Using flux and silver solder, solder a thread-
ed coupler onto the end of the cable.
3.
From the coupler end, and including the cou-
pler itself, measure 30 inches and mark the
cable. Then cut it with a wire cutter.
Now, making sure the cable is all the way
into another threaded coupler, solder it to the
cut end. The total length of the finished cable
should be 31”.
Repeat the above steps to make a second
cable to the same length.

Install the cables by using the guide tubing
and threading them through the fuselage, as
was done with the elevator pushrod.
Wash the soldered coupler/cable assembly
with soap and water.
5.
Place a snap link on each end of each cable.
6.
Connect two snap links to the center servo,
as shown, and the other two snap links to
the rudder control horn.
