more play to pass the leads one at a time through the channel. The NRJ’s fuselage is very thin and space is thus at a
premium, however this is the price of having a significant decrease in drag!
Aileron horn installation
To minimize the “accessory” drag of the ship, the aileron horns must be installed as close as possible to the fuselage. Be
careful to keep the installation of horns symmetric and respect the given distances for the best range of motion. Cut a
notch of 1.5 mm wide and 25 mm long on the side of aileron root, as close as possible to the hinge. Put a tiny drop of oil
on the Kevlar hinge, to prevent CA to enter in it. Glue your horn precisely with CA, adding a 25mm joint between
aileron and horn on the bottom side of aileron.
Vertically, the horn’s hole is backward offset from hinge to prevent the command rod from bending excessively during
full flap extension.
