4. Overlap the pushrod ends and join them with the heat-

shrink tubing. Position the ailerons in the neutral position. Use

tape to hold them in place. Carefully use a soldering iron to

shrink the tubing around the pushrods. Keep the iron away from

the foam and move it quickly back and forth across the heat-

shrink tubing until the pushrods are joined together tightly. We

do not suggest using a heat gun or micro torch to shrink

the tubing as this will melt the foam that is close to the

pushrods. If necessary, adjust the ailerons so that they are in

the neutral position. When satisfied, apply a couple drops of CA

glue to each end of the heat-shrink tubing.

Install the Horizontal Stabilizer

❏

1. Roughen a 1/8" [3mm] strip down the center of the top

and bottom of the horizontal stabilizer. Use alcohol to dull the

paint at the area to be glued. Do the same to the area around

the horizontal stabilizer slot in the fuse.

❏

2. Slide stabilizer the into the slot at the TE. Center the

stabilizer left and right in the fuse. Make sure that the stabilizer

is square to the fuse by measuring the distance between the

wing tips and stabilizer tips and setting them equal to each

other as shown in the photo. Before gluing, stand back several

feet and view the model from behind. The stabilizer should be

parallel to the wing. If not, you will need to hold the stabilizer in

the correct position as you glue it to the fuse.

❏

3. When satisfied, run a bead of thick foam safe CA glue

along the top and bottom of the stabilizer where it meets the

fuse on both sides.

Install the Tail Servos & Linkages

❏

1. Glue the rudder and elevator servos into the cutout in the

fuse with the output splines both facing the front of the plane.

The servo in the bottom of the slot is the elevator servo and

should be installed with the splines on the right side of the

fuse. The servo in the top of the slot is the rudder servo and

should be installed with the splines on the left side of the fuse.

Both servo leads should exit out of the right side. There is a

small half-circle cutout in the fuse to wrap the servo leads to

the underside of the horizontal fuse section.
