7. Place a couple of drops of medium CA on the end of

one 3-3/8" [86mm] pushrod tube. Insert a 1-1/2" [38mm]
wire into the tube approximately 1/2" [13mm]. Allow the CA
to harden, or give it a “spritz” of CA accelerator. Do the same
at the other end of the tube. Repeat for the other 3-3/8"
[86mm] tube. These pushrods will be for the ailerons.

8. Follow the same procedure for the 17-1/4" [438mm]

tube, inserting the 3" [76mm] wire 1/2" [13mm] into each end
of the tube. This will be the elevator pushrod.

9. Make a Z – bend at one end only of all three pushrods

as shown.

10. Using the servo horns supplied with your servos, make

one

single servo arm and one twin servo arm as shown.

11. Center the aileron servo and mount the twin servo

arm to it.

12. Insert the aileron pushrods that have the Z-bend into

the aileron control horns.

13. Center the aileron, then mark the end of the pushrod

wire where it attaches to the servo. Make another Z- bend at
the mark and insert it into the servo horn. Do this for both
aileron servos.

14. Use the same procedure to install the elevator pushrod.

15. Mount the speed control and the on/off switch to the

top of the fuselage with double-sided foam mounting tape
(not included).

16. Extend the receiver antenna to the back of the

fuselage and hold it to the stabilizer with cellophane tape. Be
certain there is no way that the antenna can reach the
propeller! Never coil-up the antenna, nor cut it. The antenna
length is tuned to a certain radio frequency.
