MK Dual Elavator Bellcrank ?

[Lance Van Nostrand]

Frank's way is one way, and I can understand his suggestion because it gets the mounting brackets square to the pushrod.  However, It's not really necesary.  All installations I've seen, including my own, screwed the outer spinning mounting bracket to the fuse side.  The ply is used as a doubler on the inside to give the mounting screws something to bite into.  cut the holes in the fuse first.  Use thick CA or rubberized CA to glue one ply doubler in at a time.  use fuse hole A as the access hatch to hold the ply up against the fuse inside of hole B.  then dremel out the ply covering hole B and use hole B as access to hold the ply double against the inside of hole A.

  NO MOUNT THE PLYWOOD PIECES ON THE OUTSIDE AND TAPER THEM so that the bell crank is parallel to the center of the fuse.

    I've just started to install this thing in an Elan and have been reading the Japanese/English instructions.  It appears that the bellcrank is to be installed by first drilling the holes in each side of the fuselage, attaching the  disassembled T Block to a pushrod, inserting into the fuselage, and then screwing the servo horns to the T Block with the long bolt.  OK but how do you mount the plywood braces inside the fuse?

     

    Looks like you need to cut an access hatch.  Is this how everyone does it?

     

    If so can someone give me some advice on how best to attach a hatch?

    TIA
