Hey guys, Just bought a mini floh hlg from nesail. The instructions say the push rods are installed, but they are not. Has anyone out there built one of these planes? I need to know the recommended location for the push rods. This is a "V" tail model.

Hi, Here is what I did for my MFlo, obtain some heat shrink tubing from your local electronics supply store, the size you want is just big enough so that both of the control wire with the outer sleeves will fit through the heat shrink tubing. insert both the wire w/it's sleeve into the the heat shrink leaving approx 1 1/4" of the outer sleeve of the control rod exposed at the rear. (V-Tail end) this is so that you can easyly (sp) attach the ends to the control horns on your elevator. The tail end should be on the bottom of the fuze centered. the other end you cut to the correct length that you need and when you put this package in you run this tube either up the left or right (your preference depending where you have your servoes installed) so that the ends will end up at the correct hieight to install on the servoe arm. When everything is lined up correctly run thin CA down between the heat shrink and the fuze sides to anchor it from both the tail end and from the nose end of the fuse...It would be nice to get CA from one end to the other but not going to happen but you only need to get enough of it from both ends to anchor it real good the heat shrink will support the unglued portion anyway....I hope this is clear as mud...it has worked for me... and also try to at least wash the inside of the fuze where your going to run the CA. How well like your clean a rilfe barrel. Hope this has helped.

Best Regards,

Wylie

Thanks Wylie! Great idea with the heat shrink I called N E sail and talked to Frank(the help tech) and he gave me the run down. BIG question? How does the plane fly? Is it truly a light lift plane? I plan on using this on inland slopes. Thanks again
