7. Insert the elevator joiner into place and hold it there
while sliding the stab into the slots. Do not glue anything into
place yet. We are test fitting everything first to make sure
that it fits correctly.
8. Slide the elevators into place using the joiner and
hinges. Everything should fit, match-up properly and move
freely. When you are satisfied with the alignments and fits,
remove the elevators and double check that the alignment of
the stab is correct. Glue the stab into place by wicking thin
CA into the joint between the stab and fuselage. Fill any
gaps with medium CA.
9. Use thick CA or epoxy to glue the joiner into the
elevators, but be careful not to get any excess glue on the
stab or on the fuselage. When you have the elevators in place
with no gaps between the stab and elevators, place six drops
of thin CA on both sides of each hinge and let it cure. Do not
use any accelerator while gluing the hinges into place.
10. Mount a nylon control horn on the elevator and the
rudder with two 2mm x 16mm Phillips head screws. Drill
5/64" [2mm] holes for the screws. Make sure the control
horns are aligned with the pushrods.

Review the next two steps before proceeding.
2. Put the piece of hatch material inside the fuselage and
trace the hatch opening on the hatch. Cut the battery hatch
on the cut-lines you have drawn. Do this carefully to prevent
the hatch from chipping. Curved tip scissors work well for this.
