Hey guys,
I'm building a CMP 50cc Zero with no instructions. Had them when I opened the box a year ago but not when I opened it last week. D'oh!! Not that they're of much use anyway but,,,,,
Two things I'm a little confused by are, what's the deal with the anti-rotation pins for the stabs and how do you you set up the tail wheel steering?
I'm putting all the servos up front using Golden Rods for the elevators and a pull-pull for the rudder. For those of you that did a pull-pull, how'd you connect the tail wheel? Did you just run two sets of cables off of the rudder servo?
About the stabs anti-rotation, I'm assuming those four .25" aluminum pins are what's to be used but how do you install them? There's a hole in the stab and fuse but no tube to support the pins, just one main tube for the stab.
Finally, If anyone has the directions could you fax or e-mail me a copy?
Oh yea, where should the CG be?

If I am reading your post correct, the tube is your spar/strength, and the pins simply align everything when you epoxy the stabs on...
I personally built an internal push rod to work the tail wheel.
There are a couple long threads on this plane if you search for it. It builds heavier than the box suggests, but flies great anyhow.
