Buy one of those "Remove Before Use" red flags, get two aluminum tubes about 5/16 inch OD. make four pieces of fuel tubing about two inches long. 
 
slip the tail of the flag between the rudder counterweight and the vertical stab, mark two holes on the tail by each side of the stab.  Poke holes at that point for the aluminum tubing, insert the aluminum tubing and slip the fuel line over the tubing on each side of the tail. WA LA you have a very light clamp that rolls up and can be stowed away in a plastic baggy.
 
 
I do the same thing for the  elevator.
 
For the ailerons, I use a rubber snubber with the metal hooks on each end, hook one end over the throttle knob, wrap it around the control stick with one turn and return the other end and hook it onto the throttle again.
 
Good Luck.
