Does these horns suitable for my Sbach 342 (Black) EPO 1400mm (PNF) ? ..my broken horns had 4 holes for the screws, these one only have two as I can see... any suggestions?

If you're talking about the micro J3 cub you have, the answer would be no, they are too big. Look at the "micro" control horns, size A perhaps would be the best thing HobbyKing has.
Can these be epoxied into place if you don't have screws? There seems to be a difference of opinion here regarding the screw size diameter- are the screws best to have 2mm or 2.5mm? Thank you
I use them with epoxy only, everything is still in place so far. Mounting (screw) hole diameter is 2.1mm, so you can use a 2mm screw without any problem.
They are nylon, so epoxy can let go if you don't sand the gluing surface with 60-80 grit. Or better yet Med CA works better and is lighter, test it if you want. Won't hurt EPO foam. Holds better than foam CA on EPO. Still need foam CA on EPS (polystyrene).
Depends on surface size and force applyed to it you may end up with a layer of foam or balsa glued to your control horn and loss a plane , if glued to a large elevater in a screaming dive then pull up hard eg pull out of a loop may rip off, id use bolts on ,if larger size planes,plus i place 1 screw to chech travel and elinement then the second screw
It depends in what model are you using it. If you are using it on a plane with big wing surfaces it might snap off. Use epoxy atleast. Use 2mm screw add a small amount of glue.
my favorite glue is gorilla glue.. use a srynge to apply water drop on them and they will stick like hard plastic... dnt get it on your finger tho.. it will take days to take off ... i also found that eating sunflower seed will help taking glue off your finger.. i guess saliva and sodium is the secret =)
it cannot be applied here because buddy code web site exits you can send your code to the web site and a lot of peope can see, search in google hk international buddy code.
Metal #2 works good. Comes without screws. Plastic would not likely be strong enough to cut threads into the backer. Glue might work on small foamies and such, though I wouldn't trust it myself.
screws are not included in the package, I personally, on my slow flyer plane, I simply glue them (with a glue epox) but you can still secure them with screws to your plane.
you do not need screws. just put it in place where to want to fix it and drop a CA drop in the screw hole. it will never move from its place. (give credit to my answer)
the extra piece is an backplate, if you want to screw it on an wooden surface, you want to go trough the whole surfaces and put the backplate at the other side of the surface. when using with foamies it is better to search for an strong area on the surface, or create one (a piece of plywood or somthing) and glue that between the horn and the surface.
but if secure propably, you can use this without the backplate.
gr. mark
Some control horns only have one piece which you glue onto the foam. Others have the extra piece that you can put on the other side of the foam (the foam is sandwiched between the two pieces) and you use screws to hold it in place. Screws are not included with this, buy separately depending on thickness of foam. Easier to go to your local hardware store and buy a few screws after you get the horns. You can still glue these in if you want rather than use the other piece.
The extra piece is supposed to go at the other side of the horn with 3 screws going through the control horn, through the control surface and then connecting to the extra piece.
Hope this makes sense :)
HI ,
You have to break it into 2.
One goes on one end of the push rod and the other on the other side .
You might need fastener to connect to the push rod.
There can not be installed without the other part it is the screw thread on one side you put horn and the other side of the wing, rudder, elevator, you put the extra piece to run with the fixing screws
Dont understand credit Just give advice as ive been building rc planes for over 35 years and have lost a few planes to mistakes ive learnd from,the diff today is a kit in the 70-80-90-cost a lot to buy and build a patern ship of 2m would cost me several thousands of dollars and thats me building them just building a jig costs money ended up doing a composits course just to learn about thermal plastics eg epoxy resins ps it glueing ruff up your surface to increase surface area 180 grit.see above comms my take on it
