Snappa,
Here's a thought, you might be able to put the control rod in without taking the elevators off.
1. The control rod goes in the holes where the inboard hinges are (were) installed. If you look closely at the pics you can see this.
2. You can cut thru the hinge and pull out the hinge half in the elevator and grind off the half in the stabilizer.
3. Only do this if you can deflect the elevator far enough to put in the leg portion of the L shaped rod with the thru the holes aft of the stab in the fuselage. This will probably reqire that the leg is fairly
short say 1/2" or so. If I were doing this, to be on the safe side I would insert a piece of brass tubing 1" long super glued in place to spread the load out.
4. Before you put on the control arm attach the 4-40 connector to it so all thats left is to thread the push rod to the connector.
5. When the rod is in the fuselage put the control arm on and continue to push the rod thru and out the other side.
6. After one elevator is attached, bend the second leg so it lines up both elevator halves.
7. I would then put several drops of superglue to bond the rod to the tube. Then fill in with epoxy MAKING SURE THAT THE ELEVATOR HINGES LINE UP.........
If up have any questions feel free to ask.
