•
Next, make up control rods and clevises using the parts
supplied.
• The flap rods should be about 65 mm and the ailerons
about 45 mm including clevis length - but check before you
cut!
•
Make sure you have adjustment at both clevis ends!
Control horns for ailerons and flaps
• Zero the servos by using your R/C unit.
• Remember! Aileron servo arms can be set to 90 degrees, but
the flaps need to have about a 20 degree offset towards the
leading edge and set at + 35 degrees.
• Make up your own, or use the RCRCM wiring harness and check
continuity before installing.
• I use a thin piece of piano wire to thread through the wing plug
holes to tape the wiring harness to pull it into position, servo
plugs first.
•
When the wiring harness is positioned inside the wing and
accessible, servos can be installed.
• First, check the position of the servos to make sure
they are all symmetrical (In the same place) in each
wing.
•
Install the control rods on to the servos and check that they do
not bind, are snug but not too loose or to tight.
•
Tape the control surfaces flat with masking tape.
• Assemble the completed set of servos, and control rods.
