-
Cut 2 pieces of foam board with the same height (upper and lower edge have to be parallel)
that are fitting under the horizontal stabilizer. Make sure that the horizontal stabilizer is in
contact with the upper edge of both plates and the leading edge and trailing edge have the
same distance to the table. Adjust the cut-out in the fuselage tail skin if needed. Glue the
foam board pieces to the table with a drop of hot glue.
-
Then measure the distance between the outer edge of the elevator hinge and the center line
of the fuselage on the fwd edge of the tail skin on both sides and adjust the horizontal
stabilizer to make these distances even.
-
Cut another 2 pieces of foam board (higher than the horizontal stabilizer) and fix them on the
table just in front of the horizontal stabilizer.
-
Make a last check to ensure that the horizontal stabilizer is well positioned.
-
Remove the horizontal stabilizer.
-
Apply glue to the lower edge of the cut-out on both sides and slide the horizontal stabilizer in
its position using the support plates glued to the table as a jig.
-
Again check all dimensions to ensure proper positioning.
-
Let the glue cool down. Wait at least 1,5 minutes.
-
Apply glue to the upper seam between the horizontal stabilizer and the fuselage and remove
the excess glue with a scrap piece of foam.
