Step 3: Installing the Elevator Pushrod Assembly
❑ Using a rotary tool with a cutting wheel, carefully cut a
7/8" long by 1/8" wide slot in the right side of the fuselage
for the elevator pushrod to exit. The middle of the slot should
be 1/2" below the stabilizer and 2-5/8" in front of the rudder
hinge line.
❑ Using a ruler and a pencil, measure out 3/8" from the inside edge of the right elevator half (at the hinge line) and draw
a mark on the bottom of the elevator.
☞
This mark is how far out the nylon control horn needs to be installed on the elevator.
❑ Use a pencil to mark the location and size of the slot that
needs to be cut through the elevator to install the nylon control
horn. To make this easy, use the control horn backplate as a
guide as shown.
☞
So the control horn lines up properly with the pushrod,
the slot needs to be angled slightly toward the fuselage side.
❑ Using a modeling knife, carefully cut a slot through the elevator only large enough for the tip of the control horn to be
pushed through.
❑ From the top of the elevator, push the control horn up through the slot. When in place, the tip of the control horn should
face the bottom of the elevator.
❑ Making sure that the flat portion of the control horn
backplate faces away from the elevator, push the backplate
over the end of the control horn until you hear it "click" firmly
into place.
☞
Because the elevator is thick, we cut a recess in the
elevator so that the backplate could be attached without
crushing the foam.
❑ Plug the elevator servo lead (the servo on the left side of the fuselage) into its proper slot in your receiver. Plug the
ESC lead into your receiver and plug the flight battery into your ESC . Turn on your radio system and center the servo
using the elevator trim lever on your transmitter.
