Got a tiny bit done today. The manual has you put two little blocks on the rudder servo cover to mount a servo too. The Spectrum 4030 I am using is too big. So I put a 1/8" ply plate inside and glued the servo to it with zap. The linkages provided are a ball link on one end and a simple clevis on the other. The fiberglass control horns are already drilled for you. If you assemble the linkage in the way the manual states, there is too much slop due to the hole being slightly too large in the control horn. So, I flipped them. The ball link screw fits perfectly with the control horn hole, and the clevis goes on the control arm of the servo.
