Model Assembly (continued)

Horizontal Stabilizer Installation
1. Slide the horizontal stabilizer joiner (A) into the hole in the rear of the fuselage.
2. Flex each of the elevators back and forth several times to break in the hinge.
3. Install the two piece (left and right) horizontal stabilizer as shown. Ensure the
control horn faces down.
Pushrod keeper Installation
1. Insert the end of the pushrod with the 90˚ bend into the outside hole of the
control horn and insert the pushrod into the hole in the pushrod keeper.
2. Rotate the pushrod keeper and press into place on the pushrod until it clicks
into position.

Control Surface Centering

After assembly and transmitter setup, confirm that the control surfaces are
centered. The model must be powered up and bound to the transmitter in AS3X
mode, keeping the throttle at zero. When enabled, SAFE mode is active at power
up. AS3X mode is activated when the throttle is raised above 25% for the first time
after being powered on. It is normal for the control surfaces to respond to aircraft
movement if the aircraft is in AS3X or SAFE modes.
1. Verify the trims and subtrims on your transmitter are zero.
2. Power up the model in AS3X mode and leave the throttle at zero, the control
surfaces need to be centered.
3. If they are not centered, loosen the screw in the quick connector linkage on the
servo horn.
4. Slide the pushrod in the quick connector to change the length of the linkage
between the servo arm and the control horn so the control surface is centered.
5. Apply thread lock compound to the screw threads and tighten the screw to
secure the pushrod at the desired length.
