Step 1
Slide the rudder and elevator pushrod wires into the tube
in the fuselage. Make sure the threaded portion of the
wires is on the outside of the plane near the tail group.
Step 2
Slide a clevis keeper onto a nylon clevis. Thread the
clevis onto the wire a minimum of 10 turns. Repeat this
step for both elevators’ linkages and the rudder linkage.
Step 3
Remove the back plate from a control horn using side
cutters or a sharp hobby knife. Use a 5/64" drill bit to drill
out the mounting holes in the control horn.
