4. Connect the aileron coupler assembly to the
aileron control horns, as shown.
7. Working from the outside (towards the fuse-
lage) insert the 4-40 x 1/2” socket head
screws with #4 washers through the holes in
the I-strut.
Attach a 4-40 blind nut to the screw and
tighten until the blind nut is flush with the
back of the I-strut.
Repeat with the other I-strut.
CAUTION: Do not over-tighten these screws, as
doing so will crush the I-strut onto the tab and make
it difficult to remove it from the wing.
8. Referring to the above drawing, bolt down
the center and then the rear of the top wing.
Aileron Coupler Installation
1. Collect the following items:
(4) Small control horn
(8) 2-56 x 1/2” pan head machine screw
(2) .072 x 10-1/2” double threaded wire
(4) Mini snap link
2. Mark locations for the control horns on the
outer edge of each aileron (top and bottom
wing) by measuring 8” in from the aileron tip.
With a wire cutter, remove the top of the con-
trol horns, so that only one hole remains on
each horn.
Thread a mini-snap link to each end of the
double-threaded wire.
3. Using the pan head screws, mount two con-
trol horns on the top of the bottom wing and
two on the bottom of the top wing.
