1. Locate three .074" x 36" [914mm] pushrod wires
threaded on one end. Screw a nylon clevis onto the threaded
end of the wires 20 full turns. Install a silicone clevis keeper
onto the clevises.
❏
2. Slide two of the pushrods with clevises attached into
the openings closest to the bottom of the elevator on both
sides of the fuselage.
❏
3. Connect a nylon control horn onto each of the two
clevises. Position the control horns on the elevators, positioning
them the same way as you did with the ailerons. Mark the
location for the screw holes. Drill through the marks you made
with a 1/16" [1.6mm] drill bit, drilling through the elevator.
Secure the control horn to the aileron with two 2-56 x 5/8"
[16mm] machine screws and the nylon mounting plate.

4. Connect the third pushrod into the remaining opening
in the fuselage. Connect the control horn to the clevis and
attach the control horn to the rudder in the same way you
installed them to the elevators.

5. Install the rudder servo into the servo tray at the
position shown. Mark the location for the servo mounting
screws. Drill a 1/16" [1.6mm] hole through the marks, drilling
through the plywood tray. Insert and then remove one of the
servo mounting screws supplied with your radio into each of
the four holes you have drilled. Apply a couple of drops of
thin CA to each of the holes to harden the threads. After the
glue has hardened mount the servo.

hole in the servo arm with a Hobbico Servo Horn Drill (or a
#48 or 5/64" [2mm] drill bit). Center the rudder and align the
