Assembling the Yak 11
Don't start building the model until you have read right through the building instructions and are
familiar with all the model's components. If you are not satisfied with any part, inform your supplier
before you start work on the aircraft.
Completing the fuselage
Drill the holes for the horn sleeves at the marked points in the elevators and rudder. It is a good idea to
clamp a collet on the drill at the appropriate point to avoid boring right through the control surfaces.
Remove the covering film over the diameter of the horn base.
Tip: find a piece of brass tube whose inside diameter matches the outside diameter of the horn base,
and file the end to a sharp edge. Rotate the tube gently to remove an accurate disc of covering film.
The next step is to glue the tailplane to the fuselage: place the tailplane on the saddle, and position it
exactly central and at right-angles to the fuselage centreline. Hold the panel in this position, and mark
the outline of the fuselage on the underside of the tailplane on both sides.
Remove the tailplane, run the tip of a hot soldering iron along just inside the marked lines, then peel
the unwanted film away from the centre of the tailplane.
The tailplane can now be glued to the fuselage: align the panel carefully as already described, and pin
it in place until the glue has set hard.
The fin can be installed as soon as the adhesive has cured. Place it on the tail end of the fuselage and
insert the protruding hinge in the slot in the tail post. Check that it fits flush with the fuselage at the
front, and rests squarely on the tailplane. When you are satisfied, mark the outline of the fin base on
the tailplane as described earlier.
Run the tip of a hot soldering iron along just inside the marked lines in the familiar way, and peel the
unwanted film away from the centre of the tailplane. The fin can now be glued to the fuselage and
tailplane; tape or pin it in place until the glue has set hard.
Allow the joints to cure, then glue the horn sleeves in the holes in the elevators and the rudder.
When the glue has set hard, fit the M3 screw fully into the sleeve, and tighten an M3 nut to secure it.
Set the horn lug to the correct height, then cut off excess screw length and file the end flush with the
lug. Repeat the procedure with the other horns.
Note that the height of the horns is dictated by the position of the pushrod exit slots in the fuselage.
When the control surfaces are at neutral (centre), the pushrods should line up exactly with the linkage
holes in the horns. In the case of the elevators it is naturally essential that the length of the horns
should be identical.
