Install the nosewheel steering. The nose gear steering is activated via pull-pull set up. Locate the materials to make up the control lines and proceed as follows. NOTE: When setting up your steering, first screw the four 2-56 eyelet screws into the 2-56 clevises about a 1/16 th of an inch only. Connect the clevises to the servo arm and steering arm at the top of the strut. Holding the strut and servo straight, use the supplied steering cable and make up the two pull-pull lines. TIP: Remember that these lines will stretch a little when first used and you will need to read adjust the connections. This is why you do not want to screw the clevises all the way onto the eyelet screws when first setting up this control run. Also keep in mind that when the model is rolling the nose gear strut will be pressed backwards against its stop, tightening these lines somewhat. When the model is at rest, there will be a little play or “slop” in the lines so adjust accordingly. You can install the servo either before or after sheeting the bottom of the fuselage. If you run out of available threads for adjustment, you may tie a knot in the Kevlar thus shortening it to allow for fine-tuning. Use thin CA on all knots to ensure they will not come loose. 11
