2. Open the holes on the top and bottom of the fuselage

covering for the fin attachment. Attach the fin using two

2mm washers and two 2mm nuts. Use thread lock on the

nuts to prevent loosening.

❏

3. Install the wing dowels using medium or thick CA.

Center the dowels in the fuselage before gluing.

4. Join the rudder to the fin using the following procedure:

❏ ❏

A. Drill a 3/32" [2.5mm] hole, 1/2" [13mm] deep, in the

center of the hinge slot. If you use a Dremel

this task, it will result in a cleaner hole than if you use a

slower speed drill. Drilling the hole will twist some of the

wood fibers into the slot, making it difficult to insert the

hinge, so you should reinsert the knife blade, working it back

and forth a few times to clean out the slot.

❏ ❏

B. If the hinges don't remain centered, remove the rudder

and insert a pin in the center of the hinges.

❏ ❏

C. Attach the rudder to the fin using three hinges. Make

sure there is approximately a 1/64" [.04mm] gap between

the rudder and the fin.
