PRINTED COVERING NOTES

• The covering used on your model has the coloring and markings printed directly on the covering.

• The covering has a self-adhesive backing, and it is not recommended to use heat as it may damage the covering.

• Use only mild cleaning agents on the printed ﬁ nish. Denatured alcohol is the most aggressive agent we recommend,

but test on an inconspicuous area ﬁ rst. Prolonged use will remove the paint.

• Use tape with care. Anything other than low-tack tape can remove the ﬁ nish, particularly on edges.

• Avoid contact with raw fuel, especially alcohol-based fuels containing nitro methane.

• Remove exhaust residue as soon as practical to avoid staining or damaging of the ﬁ nish.

There are two areas on your aircraft that will receive wear under normal use. The ﬁ rst area is where the cowling ﬁ ts

over the fuselage hatch, and where the wing ﬁ ts into the fuselage. Placing a piece of clear tape on the wing where it

ﬁ ts into the fuselage, and on the hatch underneath the cowling, will reduce the wear on the covering in these areas.

Sanding the inside of the cowling smooth will also help prevent wear of the covering under the cowling.

BUILDING PRECAUTIONS

Prepare the work surface prior to beginning the build. The surface should be soft and free of any sharp objects. We

recommend resting the airframe parts on a soft towel or pit mat to prevent scratching or denting the surface of the

aircraft.

TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

When transporting and storing your model, you will need a minimum of 70 inches (1.8m) in length, and 28 inches

(54cm) in height to accommodate the size of the fuselage. We also recommend the use of wing and stabilizer bags to

help protect these surfaces during transport and storage. The control horns and linkages can cause damage to other

surfaces even when placed in storage bags. Always transport and store the wings and stabilizer so the linkages do not

contact other panels to prevent damage.

CHECKING BLIND NUTS

When building the aircraft, you will be required to thread machine screws into blind nuts. We recommend pre-threading

the screws to make sure the blind nuts are clear of any debris. If the screws do not thread in easily, clear the threads

using the appropriate tap and tap handle.

NOSE WEIGHT

This model will likely require the addition of nose weight to properly balance. Testing has been performed on all power

options. Using a heavier engine or motor will help in reducing the amount of weight required. Make sure to use proper

throttle management when ﬂ ying with these larger and more powerful options. Our test aircraft with the recommended

Evolution® 62cc engine and mufﬂ er, and receiver and ignition batteries under the fuel tank. Using engines other than

those recommended may require the additional weight to properly balance. This may vary from plane to plane. Add this

weight as far forward in the fuselage as possible to reduce the amount required to balance. This weight must be secure

so it does not come loose in ﬂ ight, causing an unsafe model which could result in the loss of the aircraft.

FOR THE VISUALLY CHALLENGED

A copy of this manual can be found at www.horizonhobby.com under the tab for this particular model. Feel free to

download this manual and use a PDF viewer to zoom in on any text or images that may be in question when building

from the printed manual.

4. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the covering from the

retract openings in the wing. Trim the covering inside the opening.

5. Use low-tack tape to secure a piece of cardboard over the wing. This

will provide a place to rest the retract when routing the air lines and

prevent damage to the underside of the wing.

7. Cut a 19-inch (482mm) piece of the orange and blue air line. Attach

each air line to the retract. Using different colors makes connecting

the retracts correctly much easier when assembling the model.

 Use a heat gun on low to soften the air lines

slightly so they will slide on the fittings.

 Make sure to orient the air line colors the same on both the

left and right retracts so they operate in the same manner.

8. Route the air lines into the wing.

6. Use a pin vise and 1/8-inch (3mm) drill bit to make a hole in the

retract well for the air line.

9. Both air lines can be retrieved at the ﬂ ap servo opening. Use a piece

of low-tack tape to secure the lines together so they don’t fall back

into the wing.

10. Fit the retract in the wing. Trim as necessary to provide clearance.

12. Place a lock washer on the M4 x 25 button head cap screw. Prepare

four screws at this time.

13. Use the M4 x 25 button head cap screws to secure the retract in the

wing. Place a drop of threadlock on each of the screws before their

installation. Tighten the screws using a 2.5mm hex wrench.

 The cardboard can be removed from the wing

after the retract has been secured.

 It may be necessary to use spacers under the retract frame to

make sure there is no torsional stress when tightened into position.

Torsional stress can cause intermittent operation of the retract unit.

11. The air lines can now be retrieved at the wing root.

6EN

14. Place a drop of light machine oil on the M6 x 55 socket head cap

screw that will function as the wheel axle.

15. Slide the M6 x 55 socket head cap screw through the wheel. Make

sure the wheel spins freely on the screw.

17. Position the gear door mount near the wheel as close to the wheel

as possible. The ﬂ at area will align with the bottom of the wing. Use

an M3 x 5 setscrew and 1.5mm hex wrench to secure the position of

the gear door mount.

 Do not over tighten the screws or use threadlock as it

will damage the composite material of the mounts.

18. Position the upper mount 2

inches (70mm) from the lower mount.

16. Thread the screw into the retract. Tighten the screw enough that the

wheel can spin freely, yet there isn’t any excess movement of the

wheel on the screw. Once set, use an M3 x 5 setscrew and 2mm hex

wrench to tighten the setscrew. Use a drop of threadlock on both

the M6 x 55 socket head cap screw and M3 x 5 setscrew to prevent

them from vibrating loose.

19. Use an M3 x 5 setscrew and 1.5mm hex wrench to secure the

position of the gear door mount.

 Do not over tighten the screws or use threadlock as it

will damage the composite material of the mounts.

20. Tape a piece of paper to the wing that will go over the upper mount.

Rub a pencil on the paper to reveal the locations for the mounting

holes.

22. Attach the gear door to the mount using two M3 x 12 button head

screws and a 2mm hex wrench.

 Check the positioning of the door to make sure it is centered

in the opening and aligns with the opening near the wheel.

 Do not over tighten the screws or use threadlock as it

will damage the composite material of the mounts.

23. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the location for the upper gear door

mounting screws on the gear door.

21. Use a drill and 1/8-inch (3mm) drill bit to drill the holes for the lower

gear mounting holes in the gear door.

7 EN

Ki-43 Oscar 60cc ARF

24. Remove the cover and use a drill and 1/8-inch (3mm) drill bit to drill

the two holes for the upper gear door mounting screws. The door

can now be attached to the mounts using the four M3 x 12 button

head screws and 2mm hex wrench.

25. If the gear door is not ﬂ ush with the bottom of the wing, the mounts

may need to be adjusted. The mounting area for the lower mount

can also be sanded using medium grit sandpaper to make any

adjustments to the gear door alignment.

27. Place the cover into position. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the

locations for the mounting screws

28. Use a pin vise and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill the mounts for

the retract covers.

26. Use a hobby knife or other sharp tool to puncture the covering at the

screw holes that will secure the cover to the wing. Also remove the

covering to clear the retract mechanism.

29. Thread an M2 x 10 sheet metal screw into each hole using a #1

Phillips screwdriver. Remove the screws before proceeding.

30. Apply a small amount of thin CA to harden the threads made in the

previous step. Allow the CA to fully cure before installing the retract

cover.

31. Secure the retract cover to the wing using four M2 x 10 sheet metal

screws. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws.

32. Check that the retract can be fully extended without the gear door

hitting the cover. Trim the gear door as necessary if it hits the cover.

 There will be movement in the gear during their operation so

make sure there is a gap between the gear door and wing so

they do not contact each other during the operation of the gear.

33. Use hobby scissors and medium grit sandpaper to prepare the hub

caps for installation.

 The hub caps can be painted if desired. Be sure to fully scuff and

prepare the surface. Applying paint directly to the hub cap with

no preparation will result in flaking paint. Always test paint on a

piece of scrap material to check its compatibility to the plastic.

8EN

34. Use contact adhesive to glue the hub cap to the wheel. Use low-tack

tape to hold the hub cap in position until the adhesive fully cures.

 Repeat this section to install the remaining retract assembly.

AILERON INSTALLATION

1. Use medium-grit sandpaper to lightly sand the control horn where

it ﬁ ts into the control surface. Clean the sanded area using a paper

towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove any debris or oils. This

provides the surface texture necessary for the epoxy to bond to.

 Use tape on the painted area to help prevent removing

the exposed portion of the control horn. Remove the

tape once the control horn has been sanded.

2. Insert the M3 x 10 button head screw into the hole in the control

horn. Remove any paint using a hobby knife and #11 blade so the

screw ﬁ ts into the hole easily. Check all the control horns.

 The hole should be just large enough for the screw to slide

through, yet still fit snugly in the hole and not move excessively.

4. Test ﬁ t the control horn in the slot. Do not force the control horn into

the slot. Use a square to make sure the control horn is square to the

control surface. Do not force the control horn in the slot.

 If the control horn fits tight, or is not square, use a rotary tool

3/32-inch (2.5mm) drill bit to carefully enlarge and reshape

the hole. Wrap a piece of low-tack tape around the drill

bit to set the depth of the drill bit so it won’t accidentally

pass through the opposite side of the control surface.

3. Run your ﬁ nger along the bottom of the aileron to locate the area

for the control horn. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the

covering, exposing the slots for the control horn.

9 EN

Ki-43 Oscar 60cc ARF

5. Place tape around the slot in the aileron for the aileron control horn.

6. Remove the control horns from the control surfaces. Apply epoxy to

the slot in the aileron. Make sure the epoxy gets into the slot for a

good bond between the surfaces and control horn.

8. Before the epoxy fully cures, remove the tape from around the

control horn. This will allow the epoxy to ﬂ ow around the control

horn, creating a small ﬁ llet between the control horn and surface for

a ﬁ nished look and secure bond. Allow the epoxy to fully cure before

proceeding.

9. Test ﬁ t the remaining control horn. When gluing the control horn,

place the ball end between the horns and insert the M3 x 10 button

head screw through the control horns and rod ends. This will align

the horns correctly, making the linkage installation easier later.

7. Apply epoxy to the area of the control horn that ﬁ ts into the slot. Use

enough epoxy so the control horn will be fully bonded to the control

surfaces.

10. Once the epoxy has fully cured, pull on the control horn to make

sure it is glued securely in the aileron. If not, remove the control horn

and sand off any adhesives. Repeat this section to glue the control

horn in the aileron.

10EN

HINGING THE AILERONS

 Do not mix any epoxy until instructed to do so.

 Use the short hinges for the ailerons. The longer hinges are

used for the flaps due to the hinging technique used.

1. Apply a small amount of oil to the ﬂ ex point of the hinge to prevent

epoxy from entering the hinge.

2. Insert the hinge so the center of the hinge point aligns with the front

edge of the bevel on the control surface. Check that the hinge can

move freely.

3. Position the hinge so it is perpendicular to the hinge line when fully

deﬂ ected.

6. Insert the hinges into the control surface. Verify the hinge position

is correct. Use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove any

excess epoxy. Allow the epoxy to fully cure before proceeding.

7. Mix 1/2 ounces (15mL) of 30-minute epoxy. Use a toothpick to apply

epoxy inside each of the holes for the hinges.

4. Mix 1/2 ounces (15mL) of 30-minute epoxy. Remove the hinges,

then use a toothpick to apply epoxy inside each of the holes for the

hinges.

5. Apply epoxy to the outside of the hinge using a toothpick

9. Fit the aileron to the wing. Check that the aileron can move freely,

and the hinges are all aligned properly.

8. Apply epoxy to the outside of the hinge using a toothpick

10. Use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove any excess

epoxy. Use low-tack tape to hold the aileron in position until the

epoxy fully cures.

11 EN

Ki-43 Oscar 60cc ARF

11. Once the epoxy has fully cured, pull on the wing and aileron to make

sure the hinges are glued securely. If not, remove the aileron and

sand off any adhesives. Repeat this section to glue the hinges.

AILERON SERVO INSTALLATION

1. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the covering for the

aileron pushrod exit.

2. Center the aileron servo. Attach the servo horn on the servo

perpendicular to the servo centerline.

3. When attaching the linkage to the aileron servo arm, use the hole in

the arm that is 5/8-inch (16mm) from the center of the arm.

4. Prepare both the left and right aileron servos at this time.

5. Assemble the linkage for the aileron using two ball ends and the

inch (100mm) threaded rod. Thread each ball end 12 turns

on the link. Adjust the length so the distance between the ball ends

measures 3

inches (80mm).

12EN

5/8 inch

(16mm)

6. Secure the servo ball link to the servo arm using an M3 x 10 button

head screw, M3 washer and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench

and 5.5mm nut driver to tighten the hardware.

11. Secure the servo ball link to the control horn using an M3 x 10

button head screw, M3 washer and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex

wrench and 5.5mm nut driver to tighten the hardware.

 Connect the servo to the radio system to hold the aileron servo in

the centered position. Disconnect the ball from the control horn

and adjust the linkage so the aileron is in the neutral position.

Reinstall the hardware once the linkage has been adjusted.

12. Use the steps outlined for the retract cover to install the aileron

cover.

7. Secure a 6-inch (150mm) servo extension to the servo using a

commercially available retainer (SPMA3054).

 The length of the extension may vary depending on servo selection.

The extension listed works with the recommended servos.

8. Tie or tape the string located inside the wing to the end of the servo

lead.

9. Use the string to pull the servo lead through the wing and out at the

root.

 We left a small amount of the string on the aileron

servo lead so it can be quickly differentiated between

the flap servo lead that will be installed later.

10. Install the aileron servo in the wing with the output facing the

leading edge. Make sure to prepare the servo mounting holes by

threading a servo mounting screw into each hole and removing

them. Harden the mounting screw locations with thin CA before

installing the servo.

13 EN

Ki-43 Oscar 60cc ARF

HINGING THE FLAPS

 The flaps must be positioned to the wing before the epoxy

begins to cure. Make sure to read through all the steps

before mixing any epoxy. Glue only one flap at a time to

allow enough working time to properly install the hinges.

1. Locate the ﬂ ap control horns. When installed, the concave portion of

the horn (as indicated in the drawing) will face toward the top of the

ﬂ aps.

6. The ﬂ ap will also align to the bottom of the wing when the hinges

are positioned correctly.

8. Apply epoxy to each hinge where it will be inserted into the ﬂ ap.

Insert the hinges in the ﬂ ap.

 Use 15-minute or 30-minute epoxy to allow enough

working time during the hinge installation.

7. Remove the ﬂ ap from the wing and remove the hinges. Apply epoxy

into each of the holes in the ﬂ ap.

 Do not use an excessive amount of epoxy when gluing the hinges.

Use enough epoxy to securely adhere the hinges to the surfaces.

2. Run your ﬁ nger down the leading edge of the ﬂ ap to locate the

area for the ﬂ ap control horns. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to

remove the covering, exposing the slots for the control horn. Use

15-minute epoxy to glue the ﬂ ap control horns in position. Remove

any excess epoxy using a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol.

 Use the steps outlined for the aileron control horns to install the

flap control horns. Make sure to check that the flap control horns

are glued securely in the flaps once the adhesive fully cures.

9. Apply epoxy to each hinge where it will be inserted into the wing.

10. Apply epoxy into each of the holes in the wing.

3. Wrap a piece of low-tack tape around the ﬂ ap to create a tab so the

ﬂ ap can be lifted and lowered into position when ﬁ tting the hinges.

 Use the long hinges when installing the flaps to the wing.

4. Test ﬁ t the hinges to the ﬂ ap. Do not use any adhesives now. Slide

the hinge into position. Position as shown, checking to make sure it

can move freely.

5. Check the ﬁ t of the ﬂ ap to the wing. It will ﬁ t centered in the

opening. The hinge pin will be positioned directly over the gap

between the leading edge of the ﬂ ap and the aft edge of the wing

opening. Test the operation of the ﬂ ap to make sure the hinges are

properly aligned and the ﬂ ap movies freely.

11. Fit the ﬂ ap to the wing. Check that the ﬂ ap can move freely, and the

hinges are all aligned properly. Use low-tack tape to hold the ﬂ ap in

position until the epoxy fully cures.

12. Use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove any excess epoxy

before it can fully cure. Use care not to get epoxy in the moving part

of the hinge or between the ﬂ ap and wing. Continue once the epoxy

has fully cured for both sets of ﬂ ap hinges.

 Make sure to check that the flap hinges are glued

securely once the adhesive has fully cured.

 Repeat this section for the remaining flap hinge installation.

FLAP SERVO INSTALLATION

1. Center the ﬂ ap servo. Attach the servo horn on the servo

perpendicular to the servo centerline.

 We recommend setting the throws to 0% for radios

using a three-position switch to prevent damaging the

servo if the linkage is not the correct length.

2. When attaching the linkage to the aileron servo arm, use the hole in

the arm that is 5/8-inch (16mm) from the center of the arm.

4. Assemble the linkage for the ﬂ ap using two ball ends and the 4

inch (120mm) threaded rod. Thread each ball end 12 turns on

the link. Adjust the length so the distance between the ball ends

measures 4

inches (108mm).

5. Remove the servo arm from the servo. Secure the servo ball link

to the servo arm using an M3 x 10 button head screw, M3 washer

and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench and 5.5mm nut driver to

tighten the hardware.

3. Prepare both the left and right ﬂ ap servos at this time.

(16mm)

6. The ball link will be attached to the underside of the servo arm as

shown.

11. Move the servo to the UP ﬂ ap position using the radio system. Adjust

the throws at the radio system to bring the ﬂ ap in alignment with the

bottom of the wing.

12. Move the servo to the FULL ﬂ ap position of

–2

inches

(

50–60mm) using the radio system. Adjust the throws in the radio

system to obtain the measurements listed.

13. The linkage may rub against the wing structure depending on servo

selection. Use a hobby knife with a #11 blade or a rotary tool and

sanding drum to trim the wing structure as necessary to clear the

linkage.

7. Install the ﬂ ap servo in the wing with the output facing the leading

edge. Make sure to prepare the servo mounting holes by threading

a servo mounting screw into each hole and removing them. Harden

the mounting screw locations with thin CA before installing the

servo.

 The flap servos can be positioned in the wing to allow the

use of a Y-harness to connect the servos to the receiver.

8. Secure the servo ball link to the control horn using an M3 x 10

button head screw, M3 washer and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex

wrench and 5.5mm nut driver to tighten the hardware.

9. Attach the servo arm to the servo.

10. Adjust the length of the linkage to position the ﬂ ap in the mid ﬂ ap

position of 1–

inches (25–30mm).

 Remember to set the throws to 0% in both the up and down

positions to prevent damage to the servo, flap or linkage.

16EN

14. Use the steps outlined for the retract cover to install the ﬂ ap cover.

 Repeat this section for the remaining flap servo installation.

DROP TANK INSTALLATION

1. Run your ﬁ nger along the bottom of the wing to locate the blind nuts

for the drop tank mount. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove

the covering, exposing the blind nuts.

 Thread a screw into the blind nuts by hand first to make sure the

threads are clear. Cross threading, stripping, or damaging the blind

nuts withing the wing will require considerable work to rectify.

2. Thread the drop tank mounts into the blind nuts in the pylons. Do not

over-tighten the mounts and damage the pylon.

3. Attach the pylon to the wing using two M4 x 15 socket head cap

screws and two M4 lock washers. Use a 3mm hex wrench to tighten

the screws.

 Place a drop of canopy glue on each screw before

their installation. This will keep them from vibrating

loose yet leave them easily removable.

4. Attach the drop tank to the mounts using four M3 x 12 button head

screws. Use a 2mm hex wrench to tighten the screws.

 Place a drop of canopy glue on each screw before

their installation. This will keep them from vibrating

loose yet leave them easily removable.

 Repeat this section for the remaining

drop tank installation.

STABILIZER INSTALLATION

1. Remove the tape and packing materials from the fuselage.

2. Move the canopy latch toward the front of the fuselage. Lift the

canopy hatch from the fuselage at the rear and remove it from the

fuselage. Set it aside in a safe location.

5. Run your ﬁ nger along the sides of the fuselage to locate the opening

for the stabilizer. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the

covering from the fuselage.

6. Use a razor saw to remove the section of the tail post from the

stabilizer slot.

 The tail post is left in position at the factory to prevent damage

and maintain the structural integrity of the fuselage during

shipping and must be removed to install the stabilizer.

7. Use medium grit sandpaper to sand the fuselage smooth with the

stabilizer slot.

3. Separate the elevators from the stabilizer. 8. Run your ﬁ nger along the top of the wing to locate the blind nut

for the wing retaining bolt. Use a hobby knife with a #11 blade to

remove the covering from the wing to expose the blind nut for the

wing retaining bolt.

 For additional security, glue can be applied to the blind

nut on the inside of the wing. Epoxy with micro balloons

to thicken it works well for this task. Make sure not to

get any adhesive inside the threads of the blind nut.

9. Slide the wing tube into the wing tube socket.

 The wing tube may be a tight fit in the socket. Polishing the

wing tube with fine sand paper or steel wool will help ease

the installation of the wing tube. Do not force the wing tube in

the socket as it can damage the structure inside the wing.

4. Run your ﬁ nger along the bottom of the stabilizer to locate the

center. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the covering

from the center section.

18EN

10. Slide the wing panel into position. Guide the ﬂ ap and aileron leads,

as well as the retract air lines, into the fuselage.

11. Secure the wing to the fuselage using the 1/4-20 x 1 nylon wing

bolt.

 Repeat the steps to secure the remaining

wing panel on the fuselage.

15. Use a felt-tipped pen to transfer the fuselage outline onto the top of

the stabilizer.

16. Use a ruler and a hobby knife with a #11 blade to carefully cut the

covering 1/8 inch (3 mm) inside the line drawn on the top of the

stabilizer to remove the covering from the center of the stabilizer.

Use care not to cut into the underlying wood, weakening the

stabilizer.

18. Use an epoxy brush to apply epoxy to the exposed wood on the

bottom of the stabilizer as well.

17. Mix 3/4 ounce (25ml) of 30-minute epoxy. Use an epoxy brush to

apply epoxy to the exposed wood on the top of the stabilizer.

12. Place the stabilizer in position. Use a straight edge to align the rear

of the stabilizer and ﬁ n.

13. Stand back 8-10 feet (2-3 meters) and check that the stabilizer

is aligned with the wing. Lightly sand the stabilizer saddle on the

fuselage to correct any misalignment.

14. Measure from each wing tip to each stabilizer tip. Adjust the

stabilizer so the measurements are the same for both sides.

19. Use an epoxy brush to apply epoxy to the stabilizer mounting surface

for the stabilizer. Position the stabilizer back on the fuselage and

check its alignment. Use a paper towel and a small amount of

isopropyl alcohol to remove any excess epoxy from the fuselage and

stabilizer before the epoxy fully cures. Allow the epoxy to fully cure

before proceeding.

 Check the position of the stabilizer repeatedly during

the curing process to make sure it has not moved.

ELEVATOR INSTALLATION

1. Install the elevator control horns. Their installation is the same as the

aileron control horns.

 Make sure to check that the control horns are

securely glued before proceeding.

2. Glue the hinges in the elevator using 30-minute epoxy. The

installation of the elevator hinges is similar to the aileron hinges. Use

the short hinges to hinge the elevators

3. Glue the hinges to the stabilizer using 30-minute epoxy.

 Make sure to check that the elevator hinges are glued

securely once the adhesive has fully cured.

6. Use a hobby knife with a #11 blade to trim the covering so the

pushrod can exit the fuselage.

7. Thread a ball end 12 turns on the pushrod. Secure the servo ball

link to the control horn using an M3 x 10 button head screw, M3

washer and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench and 5.5mm nut

driver to tighten the hardware.

8. Center the elevator servo using the radio system. Attach the servo

horn on the servo perpendicular to the pushrod. Thread a ball end

12 turns on the pushrod. Secure the servo ball link to the control

horn using an M3 x 10 button head screw, M3 washer and M3 lock

nut. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench and 5.5mm nut driver to tighten the

hardware.

9. Repeat the previous steps to install the remaining elevator servo and

pushrod.

4. Prepare the holes in the fuselage for the elevator servo by threading

a screw into each hole. Remove the screws and place 2 to 3 drops

of thin CA in each hole to harden the surrounding wood. Once the CA

has fully cured, install the elevator servo with the servo output shaft

toward the front of the fuselage.

5. Slide a 36

inch (930mm) pushrod into the pushrod tube.
