I installed the provided Dubro control horns in the elevator halves and the Rudder pull-pull system. There was a small pilot hole in the hardpoints from the factory so all I had to do was drill it out the proper size and bolt the horns on.

Tail installed. I sealed the gaps on every surface using clear Ultracote.

Tailwheel closeup....The tailwheel was installed in the rudder before the hinges were glued by drilling a small hole in the front of the rudder for the tailwheel to stick into, then screwed to the bottom of the fuse.

Elevator control rod...Instead of the 4-40 all thread control rods I used 4-40 rods with a solder clevis on the end. This was just a personal preference as I like soldering control rods together. I used Dubro heavy duty control arms on the servos.
