Innovative hardware for Tape-Free Assembly

Control Horns The control horns have a larger than normal hole that fits the Z-bend pushrod connector without slop. The control does double duty as a hinge, reducing weight and assuring correct linkage geometry.		Landing Gear Molded strut supports hold the 2 mm carbon rod landing gear legs in position. They're also braced at the fuselage, wing and wheels for a strong, properly reinforced landing gear.

Amazing Control Throw Large servo arms and control horns offer up to 80 degree deflection.		Clip-Hinge System Clip-Hinges allow control surfaces to pop off in a crash and avoid damage.

Z-Bends A large bearing surface on the Z-bends reduces wear to prevent slop, unlike linkage systems that rely on small wire Z-bends. To make installation simple, the 1 mm carbon rod is secured in the Z-bend with a drop of CA.		Tailwheel The tail gear pivots on the carbon fin post, allowing the snap-in tailwheel to steer the airplane while on the ground.
