Creating The Linkage Rods - Reely SKY 1:9 Pilatus PC-6 Turbo Porter Notice D'emploi

l) Creating the Linkage Rods
The linkage rods must be built from parts of the construction kit for
linkage of the elevators and rudders. The length indications are shown
in figure 9a.
The round wood of the thrust rod for the rudder must be approx.
380 mm and the one for the elevator approx. 430 mm long (also see
figure 9a). The length information is an approximate and must be
adjusted to the model in length before final production.
To create the linkage, the shortened wires must be bent by 5 mm at a
90° angle at the end as shown in figure 9a and glued to the wood thrust
rods with 30-minute epoxy resin.
For this, the rods first need to be fastened with a drop of superglue.
Then wrap a fine thread around the fastened thrust rod several times.
Then the epoxy resin is applied and the entire unit is sealed with a
shrink hose.
The rods then need to be bent to match. Figure 9b shows the finished
elevator linkage rods for connection to the rudder horns of the tail units
in item 1 and the rods for the rudder in item 2.
For connection to the servo rudder horns, item 3 shows the rods for the
elevator servo and item 4 those for the rudder servo.
The thrust rod for the rudder and the thrust rod for the spur gear must be connected with a clamp ring in the area of the servo rudder horn (figure 9b, item 5).
If you have equipped your model with a combustion engine, you need to adjust and install the linkage rods for the carburetor settings as required
depending on the carburetor linkage of the combustion engine.
The construction kit includes the corresponding material, which may, however, have to be supplemented or placed by your own or additionally
purchased material.
