*I'll
probably substitute titanium bolts and
aluminum lock nuts later.
**Replacing
the philips head screw that comes with the
servo. Also use blue loctite.
***DA will send a mated connection for
the ignition. I soldered that connection
directly to the Fromeco Badger Switch.
****I used 2 pin Deans Plugs to connect
the charge jacks to the batteries.
##
Rudder Linkages: I made the linkages for the
rudder out of 4-40 all thread and carbon fiber
tube. Once I had the lengths on the 4-40 set
to where I had the desired resolution, I cut
the CF tubing to length. Then I mixed up some
30 minute epoxy and covered the all thread in
epoxy, before I slipped the CF tube over it,
then I screwed the ball link on. THE CF tubing
is cut to the exact length so that the control
horn on one end of the rod and the ball link
at the other snug up on it.
^^^ Replace the screw which the control
horn pivots on. It is a phillips head screw
which attached to a square brass nut. I guess
you could loctite the screw, but I want to
know for sure. I like to replace it with a
little longer flat head socket screw and a
lock nut. I would recommend going to
Fastener Express
and
getting aluminum bolts and lock nuts.
