Remove the hinges from the tail surfaces. Use a q-tip to apply Vaseline to the center area of the hinge.
We do this to keep glue out of the rotating part of the hinge. We use Vaseline, instead of oil, so that we
can contain the Vaseline to only the center part of the hinge. We need the ends of the hinges to remain
dry and clean so that the glue will bond them securely.
Place several drops of either polyurethane glue (gorilla glue – honey-colored) or epoxy (30 minute is
preferred) into the hinge holes on both the vertical stab and rudder. Wipe away any excess which drips
out with rubbing alcohol on a paper towel. Insert the rudder hinges into the holes in the stab, making sure
they are aligned correctly so that the rudder can swing back and forth.
