11. Locate two control horns. Use 220 grit sandpaper to

lightly sand the tab portion of the horns.

12. Attach a control horn to the rudder pushrod. Install

the pushrod through the outermost hole of the horn. Install a
plastic retainer.

13. Glue the rudder horn to the rudder using thin CA. Make

sure that the horn is perpendicular to the rudder before you
glue it.

14. Attach a control horn to the 1 x 550mm elevator

pushrod. Install the pushrod through the outermost hole of
the horn. Install a plastic retainer. Glue the elevator horn to
the right elevator.

15. At this point (while the motor wires are still easy to

get to), you should check the rotation direction of the motor.
Turn on your transmitter and plug your airplane’s battery into
the ESC. Refer to the instruction manual that came with your
ESC to arm the motor. Check to see that the motor rotates
counter-clockwise as viewed from the front with the airplane
facing directly toward you. If it rotates backwards, reverse
any two motor leads.
