Hi, i am building a alpha trainer and i do not have any control cable for the servos in my kit is it normal?

What do you guys use?

Thank you

I'm assuming this is an ARF.

The plane should have come with wire pushrods that fit in tubes, not cables.

Pg 27 of the ARF manual list 4 different "control wires". If these are missing contact your dealer for a remedy.

Yes, you guys are right.. i am missing the rods!

Wow, i am not impressed so far of that place where i bought this, maybe that box got open before by them or somebody else...

The worst part is, the shop is on vacation for 3 weeks!

sad story...

thanks again.

Well, don't blame the dealer right away. Chances are he didn't have anything to do with the shortage.
Try customer service at www.Horizonhobby.com like it says on the front page of your manual. At least you are narrowing it down. Check to see if anything else is missing before contacting them. Might as well handle it all at one time.

do you think the company is gonna help me out since the store is temporary closed?

RE: control cables.
 

Yes, it doesn't hurt to try. I bought a GP Spirit Elite Kit this weekend and all of the plywood in the kit was deformed. I emailed GP directly last night and they are shipping me the replacements.

Always ask, it never hurts. If Horizon can't/won't help, then you have 2 options, you can either wait for the shop to come back from vacation, or order something that would be a suitable replacement. But I do highly recommend contacting Horizon first.

If you still have the box around, check and make sure the pushrods aren't taped to the boxtop or behind or on a support inside the box. They (the factory) can be pretty tricky about where they tape the pushrods.

On the plus side Horizon hobby has fantastic customer service. I don't see any problem with them shipping you out the replacement parts right away.
