Start by gluing the three hinge points to the fin, after they have cured then glue the hinge
points to the rudder, see photo 14. Follow the same steps as in the Elevon hinging
procedure.
Locate the drive pin position in the rudder assembly, drill the hole in the location shown in
photo 15, and then use adhesive to secure the pin and let the adhesive fully cure.
To find the correct placement of the slot temporally position the rudder and fin assembly
onto the fuselage and trace the arc of the rudder mounted pin onto the top of the fuselage,
masking tape applied to the fuselage in the area that the marking is needed works well.
Cut the slot in the fuselage as shown in photo 16.
Note: It is recommended that a standard sized servo be use for this method.
Prepare the heavy duty servo arm by mounting the cup assembly as shown in photo 17.
Mount The L brackets to the servo; the L brackets should be on the right side of the servo
with the spline end of the servo towards the front of the airframe as shown in photo 20.
