Instruction manual

HOOK UP THE CONTROLS

❍ 1. There is a 5mm hole in the firewall for the pushrod

guide tube that will align with the throttle arm on most two-

stroke engines. Use medium sandpaper to roughen both

plastic pushrod guide tubes. Insert one pushrod guide tube

through the hole in the firewall for the throttle, and the other

for the steering pushrod guide tube.

❍ 2. Thread a nylon clevis 25 full turns onto the 500mm

threaded throttle pushrod wire. Slip a silicone retainer

over the clevis. Insert the pushrod with the clevis all the

way into the throttle pushrod guide tube and connect the

clevis to the throttle arm on the engine as shown in the

photograph above.

❍ 3. Run the un-threaded 500mm steering pushrod through

the Screw Lock Pushrod Connector and continue pushing it all

the way into the steering rod guide tube. Position the pushrod

guide tubes to extend approximately 1/8” [3mm] past the

firewall and glue them into place using 6-minute epoxy.

❍ 4. Screw two nylon clevises 25 full turns onto the two

680mm threaded wire pushrods. Slip silicone retainers over

the clevises.

Slit the covering material where the guide tubes exit the

fuselage with a hobby knife. The location of the rudder

tube exit is on top of the fuse next to the fin and the

elevator tube exit is located on the same side of fuse under

the stab. After you have made your cuts, slide the

pushrods through the guide tubes. Connect the clevises to

the control horns placing them in the second hole from

the end of the horn as shown.

❍ 5. Position the control horns on the elevator and rudder

as shown in the photograph. The row of holes in the horns

should be over the hinge line. If necessary small bends

may be made in the pushrods to position them with the

control surfaces. Mark the locations of the holes in the

base of the control horns on the elevator and rudder. At

these locations drill 5/64” [2mm] holes through the elevator

and rudder for mounting the control horns with 2mm x

14mm phillips head screws, and then mount the control

horns using the screws and the nylon backing plates on the

other side of the control surfaces.
