K) Installing And Linkage Of Elevator And Rudder Servos; L) Controlling Elevator And Rudder Functions - Reely SKY Cessna 185 Bedienungsanleitung

k) Installing Elevator and Rudder Servos
Screw the servos for the rudders (1) and elevator (2) in the rear part of the
fuselage into the servo board.
Mount one rod connection (4) each to the rudder horns for the rudder and
elevator servos (3).
Cut the Bowden tube (5) so that there is a distance of approx. 30 mm between
the rod connections for the rudder and elevator servos and the end of the Bowden
tube. For this, we suggest that the linkage rods be removed from the Bowden
tube first.
Now push the linkage rod for the tail gear and rudder into the rod connector of
the rudder servo. Set the rudder servo, the rudder and the tail wheel to neutral.
Secure the linkage rods in neutral position with the hexagon socket screw of
the rod connection. Cut the linkage rod leaving an excess length of 10 mm.
Slide the linkage rods of the elevator flaps into the rod connection of the elevator
servo. Set the elevator servo and the elevator flaps to neutral.
Cut the rods for elevator linkage leaving an excess length of 10 mm. Hold the
rods in place with the rod connection screw.
Hold the Bowden tubes (5) in place at the fuselage with viscous superglue (6).
Also observe the following construction section "Controlling Ele-
vator and Rudder Functions"

l) Controlling Elevator and Rudder Functions

Ensure neutral position: Transmitter neutral position = servo neutral position = control flap neutral position. For this construction stage, also
observe figure 14.
Connect the servos to your receiver temporarily and carry out a function test afterwards. The rudder levers on the servos must be in neutral position after turning
the receiver on (90° to the fuselage axis).
If this is not the case, loosen the fixing screw of the rudder horns, remove the rudder horns and attach them again rotated by 90°. Then secure the rudder horns
with the initially removed screw.
If the neutral servo position is okay, perform a function control to check the rudder deflection with the remote control switched on.
The elevator deflection downwards and upwards should be about 15 mm at the elevator flap edge. If you pull the control lever for the elevator at the transmitter
towards you, the elevator flaps must be deflected upwards. If this is not the case, press the reverse switch for the elevator at the transmitter.
The deflection for the rudder should be approx. 20 mm to the left and right at the edge of the rudder flap. If you push the rudder control lever at the transmitter to
the left, the rudder and tail gear must be deflected to the left, viewed in flight direction. If this is not the case, press the reverse switch for the rudder at the
transmitter.
If the rudder path is too long, change it either by setting the respective rudder path limit (dual rate) at the transmitter or hook the servo rods through the uppermost
rudder horn hole. If the rudder deflection is too low, hook the servo rods into the bottom rudder horn hole.
