g) Suspending the rudders
• After you have checked resp. adjusted the correct posi-
tion of the servo levers, you can now suspend the fork
heads (1) of the control rods each in the center boring of
the rudder horns (2).
• Now check whether the rudders are exactly in the cen-
tral position while the transmitter and receiver unit is
turned on.
The rudder (3) may neither deflect to the left or the right
and the elevator unit (4) may not point upwards or down-
wards (also see figure 13).
• In case of deviation from the central position, you can
change the total length of the control by twisting the fork
heads and exactly align the rudder flap.
Warning!
Make sure to turn the receiver system off in all cases before performing adjustment work on the control
rods.
Practical tips:
You can best see a slant of the rudder flaps of you look at the model from behind at a distance.
h) Checking the rudder functions
• First start running the transmitter then the model. The safety button for the motor function may not be operated to
prevent accidental start-up.
• If the control lever for the rudder and elevator (see figure 2, pos. 4), and the associated trim levers (see figure 2,
pos. 3 and 5) are in the middle positions, the rudder (see figure 13, pos. 1) and elevator (see figure 13, pos. 2) are
to be aligned precisely centred as well.
