CAUTION
Do not over tighten the quick link screws,
they will cause damage to the carbon rods
if made too tight. To get a feel for how
tight to make them, experiment on part of
the extra length. Also if the ends of the
screws have any burrs or sharp edges,
carefully sanding these off will help to
prevent the screw from “digging” into the
carbon rod

Note:
::
: there are many different techniques
for attaching the z-bend wires to carbon
rods. The important points are to make
sure the areas to be glued, have been
roughed up with sand paper and are
cleaned thoroughly before gluing. Equally
important is to make sure the CA does not
run into the control horn holes, if possible,
situate the airframe so that the glue tends
to run in the opposite direction
Installing Aileron Push Rods
Insert the z-bend end into the aileron
differential horn as shown
Slide the bare end through the easy
connector as shown. It may be necessary to
shorten the rod slightly so that while
deflecting the aileron control surface the
rod can slide through the easy connector
hole. Trim as desired, leaving approx ¼”
for adjustments and strength
