Here is the stuff from the U-Pull It Salvage Yard and the tools used... |
 |
This is the five position switch and motor with two bidirectional outputs... |
 |
Cut in half to pull off one of the motors. I kept as much of the retaining casing for this motor as possible. The other half was discarded |
 |
Cut the hole in the elevator. |
 |
Placed the motor in position. In this pic, you see the original screw drive. That is replaced with a threaded rod end. See next pic. |
 |
The parts that go from the threaded rod end, to the bell crank, are model airplane parts. I am not sure what that black rod is, but it is hollow and is attached at the bell crank end with a 4-40 threaded rod. |
 |
Here you see the male threaded rod end with a model
plane, 4-40, threaded rod soldered in a hole drilled in the end of the threaded rod end.
|
 |
Notice that there is sheathing around the black rod, sort of like a soda straw.
Watch it go up

Watch it go down
Pretty good deflection. Now to glass it over.

 |
Using heat lamps
to cure the super fil. |
 |
A little more filling
and sanding. Smooth prime, sanding, primer, and sanding, and I think this
will be ready for paint. |
