Installation Notes

• Install the M4 × 100mm rod through the rudder and center the system before tightening hardware
• Adjust the aluminum spacer cones to align the horn arms evenly on both sides of the rudder
• Use proper cable tension in pull-pull setups to eliminate slack
• Use threadlock on metal fasteners to help prevent loosening from vibration
• Check rudder movement through full travel to confirm there is no binding

Why Use a Deluxe HD Rudder Horn System?

A through-rudder horn system provides a stronger and more adjustable linkage connection than many basic surface-mounted rudder horns. The M4 rod passes through the rudder for strength, while the M3 ball links help provide smooth, precise control movement for pull-pull or pushrod setups.

This is an easy to install adjustable rudder horn system
The washers that goes against the rudder on both side swivels to fit the taper of the rudder.
Great for 25% and up, sized planes.
The ball links are slop and friction free to make a very slick and good looking installation.
Comes with all the hardware shown in the picture.
