5. Use a hobby knife with a new #11 blade to remove
the covering from the bottom of the fin.
Important
: Use light pressure when cutting the covering
to prevent cutting into the fin. Cutting too deep will
weaken the fin and could cause it to fail in flight.
6. Reposition the fin and connect the rudder pushrod
to the rudder control horn. The bend will enter the horn
from the side of the horn closest to the stabilizer. You will
need to put a small bend in the pushrod wire to connect
it to the rudder.
7. Use a square to check the alignment between the
stabilizer and fin.
