Step 17
The rudder uses two control horns mounted on either
side. Position one horn so it is aligned with the mark
made in the previous step. Mark and drill the holes for
the control horn screws, then mount the horns. The three
2-56 x 5/8-inch machine screws go through the first
control horn, through the rudder, through the second horn
and are then secured using three 2-56 nuts.
Align holes with hinge line
Note: Use threadlock on the nuts to prevent
them from vibrating loose in flight.
Step 18
Slide a piece of safety tubing on a metal clevis. Thread a
4-40 nut and metal clevis onto a rigging coupler. Slide
a crimp onto the cable, then slide the cable through the
coupler. The cable will then go back through the crimp.
Prepare both ends of the cable and attach the clevises to
the control horns. Adjust the cable so there is light tension
on the cable, then secure the cable using the crimp and
crimping pliers or vice grips. Make sure to install that
safety fuel tubing on those clevises.
Note: Once the length of the cable
has been adjusted, use threadlock on
the nuts and clevises to prevent them
from vibrating loose in flight.
Step 19
Attach the rudder tiller bracket to the rudder using two
#2 x 5/8-inch sheet metal screws. It is highly suggested to
remove the screws, then apply a few drops of thin CA into
the holes and reinstall the screws.
