I had to drill a hole (about
5/16") in F7 to allow the pull-pull cables to pass through. |

The Rocket City control horns.
The hard-point in the rudder does not extend to the front (hinge point) of
the rudder. Therefore you have to mount the control horn back about
5/16-3/8" back from the front edge to ensure that you have plenty of
plywood through which to drill. This puts the pivot point of the
control horn behind the pivot point of the rudder. Not a big deal to
us "adequate" fliers. |

A view of the pull-pull cables
attached to one of the rudder servos. I am still waiting on 3 1/2"
arms from Nelson Hobby, so this is a temporary setup. I hooked the
JR DS8411 up to a receiver/battery just to make sure everything was
working ok and there were no binds, kinks, etc. WOW - what a servo.
Fast and lots of torque. |

This is the method I used to
hold the rudder in place while I was measuring/installing the pull-pull
cables. Works really well. Make sure not to move them around
after you tape them together or you may get some hanger rash. |
