rudder as illustrated in the above photo. When satisfied with

the fit and placement, glue the hinge points into place with

epoxy. Be careful not to get glue into the moving portion of

the hinges.

2. Trial fit the rudder into the fin. When satisfied with the

fit, glue the hinge points into the fin with epoxy. Be careful

not to get glue into the moving portion of the hinges.

3. Notice that the horizontal stab already has the covering

removed in the areas where it will be glued to the fuselage.

Insert the stab into the slots molded into the fuselage sides.

Use a tape measure or piece of string to verify that the stab

is positioned squarely into the fuselage. Measure the

distance from both ends of the stab to a marked location on

the front of the fuselage, moving the stab slightly until both

ends are the same distance. Mark the stab at the leading and

trailing edges with a fine tip marking pen. Remove the stab

from the fuselage. Do not glue the stab into place yet.

4. The two elevator halves are joined by the elevator

joiner. In order to install this joiner you first have to make

room for it by relieving a small portion of the fuselage directly

behind the rear of the slot where the stab fits. To do this use

a rotary tool or a round file as shown in the above photo.

5. Next cut away the covering on each elevator half as

shown in the above photo. The elevators have been pre-

drilled and pre-grooved to accept the joiner. Test fit the

elevator joiner wire in both elevator halves. Lay the elevator

halves on a flat surface and check that both are flat against

the surface. If one elevator half does not lay flat, the elevator

joiner wire may need to be twisted slightly.

6. Locate the four CA hinges and insert them into the two

elevator halves. Do not glue the hinges at this time.
