Found a good way to solve the hassle of the split elevator links on ARTF models,the instructions usually tell you to simply feed the wire links into the fuselage sides,easier said than done and this usually results in damage to the wood inside,forget that idea and try this-
Get two pieces of Sullavan snake inner or similar ( even flexible curtain rod will suffice ) feed both pieces into the rear of the fuselage sides so they exit into the area where the servos are,now place each end of the fork into the snake inner,run a bit of tape around the joint for security if need be,now gently pull on the two ends of the snake at the tail end,thats it ! job done,just connect up to the elevators and servo and check carefully for any fouling.
This tip will save hours of fiddling.
