RE: Hobbico FlyZone Cessna 182 Skylane EP RTF
The vertical and horizontal stabilizers are mounted together after first connecting the control rods and sliding them into the pre-installed tubes. When the rods are inserted about half way, the tail navigation wire is then inserted into the larger tube that runs down the center of the fuselage. Just before the fin and stab are all the way into position, the pushrods are fed into the pre-mounted connectors on the servo arms.
A plastic retaining clip holds the tail assembly in place and the control rods are held with set screws.
