Default RE: Tuff Flight's 4D

I'm glad your finding it helpful GarySS



But, as the old TV comercials say......But What! There's More!




It's now time to hook up the control rods to the control horns on the horizontal stab and the vertical stab. Installing the contol rods is not difficult. Again, the instructions pretty well walk you through everything step-by-step. The only area I would change is on the horizontal stab control rod. The instructions would have you bend it to make sure there is clearance for the horizontal stab to move through it's full range. I tried this initially and I had too much flutter problems. I contacted Tufflight to discuss the fix. Joe was most helpful. The fix is to keep the control rods straight and cut the horizontal stab so they do not interfer with the control rods.
