To provide positive control of the elevator and
rudder, cut 3 or 4 foam cylinders from a block
of scrap packing foam. The foam will hold the
pushrod tubes against the side of the boom
and prevent fl exing.
The fi rst picture shows the foam being cut
using the end of a carbonfi bre boom.
The foam cylinders are then positioned inside
the carbonfi bre boom at approximately the
spacings shown using a dowel or carbonfi bre
tube..
38. Feed the foam into the tail boom as shown
through the top of the fuselage.
Position the foam cylinders at regular
intervals as shown in the picture above..
Remember to do this after you have installed
the pushrod tubes. There is no need to glue
the foam in and it can be removed by pushing
a dowel up the boom from the tail end.
39. When attaching the wing, remember to slide
the pushrod wire into the fl ap horn.
This picture shows the fl ap in the neutral or
up postion.
40. This picture shows the fl ap in the fully down
position.
TIP: Take great care when setting up the fl ap in
the radio as it is very easy to stall the servo
which could result in servo stripping a gear or
burning out the circuit board.
