Well,
First, I was curious for future reference in case they get damaged and need replacement.
And second, I my plane is tailheavy. Stupid me, I did the same thing to the rudder which was set for a single control horn with a push rod.
Now I need to make it a pull pull system to get rid of the excees weight in the back.
Which means I need to replace the rudder control horn from a single to a double ended horn.
As you can see, I'm not at all a good builder. I definitely like flying more than building.
or....... move the engine forwars, move the battery forward... move the radio forwars... move the servos forward... move the tank forward.... sink an ound of lead in the nose... use a heavier prop.... use a haevier nose wheel... use golden rod pushrods in tail and metal in nose... DONT CHOP IT TO PEICES although if you were to just cut a triangular peice out where the horn is it would be easy to fix that...
Which means I need to replace the rudder control horn from a single to a double ended horn.
and thats going to save u weight?? adding 2 steel wires and an extra horn vs a horn and a steel wire... ur not gonna save hardly any weight.
