5. Install the elevator joiner wire into the stab slot. Re-install
the stab into the fuselage. Double-check the stab placement
and alignment to the fuselage. When you are satisfied
everything is properly positioned use thin CA to glue the stab
to the fuselage. Using an extension tip will allow you to apply
the glue easily through the opening for the fin. Apply CA to the
bottom of the stab where the fuse and stab meet, allowing the
CA to wick into the joint.
6. Install the vertical fin into the slot in the top of the
fuselage. Use a square to be sure the fin is perpendicular to
the stab. Trace the outline of the fuselage onto the fin.
Remove the fin from the fuselage, then cut away the covering
using the same technique used on the stab.
7. Re-install the fin to the fuselage, double check the fin
alignment, and then glue the fin to the fuselage using the
same technique used for the stab.
8. Remove the wing from the fuselage.
9. Tape one of the elevators in place on the stab.
Center the elevator joiner wire, then mark where the joiner
goes into the elevator.
10. Using the reference mark you made, drill a 5/64"
[2mm] hole into the leading edge of the elevator. Hint: Start
the hole with a T-pin, pushing the pin into the elevator. Be
sure the pin goes into the wood straight and does not come
through the surface of the elevator. Once the hole has been
made with the pin, drill out the hole. The pin hole will work
as a guide for the drill to go in straight.
11. Install three hinges into the slots in the elevator.
Use a T-pin to keep the hinges centered. Apply a small
amount of epoxy to the hole you drilled in the elevator. Insert
the elevator onto the joiner wire while guiding the hinges into
the hinge slots in the stab. Once positioned apply thin CA to
the hinges in the same way you did for the ailerons.
12. Repeat steps 9-11 for the other elevator.
