Elevator Horn

Locate the supplied

⁄32" wire and brass channel stock.

Cut the brass channel stock to 1

⁄8" long and remove

⁄2" of one of

the brass walls as shown in Figure 48.

On that same end (where the wall was cut away), drill a

16" hole

and drill a

32" hole on the other side.

Bend the

32" wire to the exact width of the distance between the

two holes that were drilled into the Elevator. It should resemble

Figure 48.

Slide the brass channel stock down the bent wire to the

midpoint.

In preparation for soldering, pinch the walls below the wire with a

pair of pliers.

Solder the brass channel stock in position as shown in Figure 49.

Using epoxy glue, install bent-wire assembly into the drilled holes

of both Elevators as seen in Figure 50. (Test fit first to ensure easy

fit, and roughen the wire to give “bite” for the glue) Ensure the

Elevators are lying flat while the epoxy cures.

Once the epoxy glue has cured, proceed with applying Ultracote

covering to create the Elevator hinges (Use the same method

used to create the Aileron hinges.) Do not cover the Horizontal

Stab yet.
