Attach an EZ Link connector to your elevator servo’s arm. Install your
elevator servo in an outer position in the fuselage’s servo mounting tray on the
same side of the airplane as you installed the elevator control horn. Trim the
length of the forward end of the elevator pushrod to fi

same level as the horizontal stabilizer) and tighten the elevator’s EZ Link
connector onto the elevator pushrod.

Use epoxy to secure the vertical stabilizer int

vertical stabilizer at 90-degrees relative to the horizontal stabilizer until the
epoxy is fully cured.
20.
Prepare two clevises twisted halfway onto
their brass rods. Slide crimp tubes onto
one end of the rudder cables. Guide the
end of the cable through the hole in the
threaded rod. Bring the end of the cable
back into and all the way through the
crimp tube. Use pliers to firmly squeeze
the crimp tube to secure it to the cable.
Attach the clevises to the rudder servo’s
output arm and secure each with a short
length of silicon tubing.
(Note: If necessary, use the tip of a scribe
or a small nail to slightly expand the crimp tube
