Control stick:

Referring to Figures 6/1 and 6/2, insert the trunion(Ni28-082) through the rectan- gular opening in the control stick(Ni28-

081)and pin it in place with pivot (WP161-12). You will need to drill out the holes in the stick for the pivot pin and must cut the pin to length. Glue itís ends to the molded-on false nuts, making sure that the stick moves easily back and forth on the trunion.

In the actual aircraft, the joints between the control stick, push lever, and “S” arms are designed to move in two axes. This is accomplished in the model by the simple expedient of allowing sufficient free play in the linkage. It is suggested that you test fit the linkage before gluing on the false nuts, and then ream the holes in the push levers(Ni28-087) if needed.

Unite the aileron push levers(Ni28-087) and aileron “S” arms(Ni28-088) by means of the aileron control false bolts(A017) and false nuts (Ni28-086). Attach these assemblies to the trunion pivots and secure with false nuts. Make sure that all the joints move freely.

Glue the control stick supports(Ni28-

084)into place on the 3x3mm braces(WPO3631-24) that run across the cockpit. The braces fit within the slots, which face each other, on the supports. Next insert the trunion pins into the brack- ets on the supports and gently crimp the brackets to secure the trunion pins but still allowing the control stick to pivot freely side to side.

Finish this step by attaching the 2 eleva- tor control cables(WP1205) (“A” and “B” in Figure 6/2) to the control stick. Run the cables back through the fuselage, through the left outer of the bottom four lightening holes of formers #4-6, then through the left outer of the four holes in the brace across former #7. Temporarily tie them off at former #10.

Rudder controls:

The rudder bar assembly consists of parts Ni28-089-092 and WP1860 as shown in Figure 6/3. Make sure the rudder bar(Ni28-089) swings freely. Make the stirrups from the 1/4” aluminum
