INSTALLING THE ELEVATOR PUSHROD
1. Locate the pushrod exit slot on the right side and left
side of the fuselage. It is located slightly ahead and
below the horizontal stabilizer.
2. Carefully cut away the covering material from the slot.
3. Working from inside the fuselage, slide the threaded
end of the pushrod until it reaches the exit slot.
Carefully reach in with a small screw driver and
guide the pushrod out of the exit slot.
4. Install the nylon clevis into the two elevator pushrod.
Make sure 6mm of thread shows inside the clevis.
5. The control horn should be mounted on the bottom,
left side and right side of the elevator .
6. Remove the covering from the slot on the elevator.
Insert and secure the control horn in place.
7. Attach nylon clevis to the control horn and secure it .
8. Locate one nylon servo arm, and using wire cutters,
remove all but one of the arms. Using a 2mm drill
bit, enlarge the third hole out from the center to
accommodate the elevator pushrod wire.
9. Plug the elevator servo into the receiver and center
the servo. Install the servo arm onto the servo. The
servo arm should be perpendicular to the servo and
point toward the middle of the fuselage.
10. With the elevator halves and elevator servo
centered, carefully place a mark on the elevator
pushrod wire where it crosses the hole in the servo
arm.
11. Using pliers, carefully make a 90 degree bend up at
the mark made. Cut off the excess wire, leaving
about 6mm beyond the bend.
