Tail assembly
6. Locate the horizontal stabilizer and elevator, separate the two pieces and keep track of your
CA hinges. You will need to remove the small plug in the rudder hinge line to insert the
stabilizer, as well we suggest mounting the 4 wing halves. Now take the horizontal stabilizer and
dry fit it into the slot, take a look from the front and back of the plane to assure it is parallel to
the wings. Also check the orientation of the horizontal stabilizer, be sure the top side is up, one
way to tell is to look at the covering scheme and make sure it matches the wings such that you
have the proper side upright. Remove the stabilizer and use 30 minute epoxy to glue the
stabilizer to the slot, reinstall the stabilizer and allow to fully dry. Now hinge the elevator to the
horizontal stabilizer using the same methods as did when hinging the ailerons. Once hinged, now
reinstall the small plug back into its slot, you may now install the elevator control horn/base plate
and this will complete the horizontal/elevator assembly. See figures 15 - 19.
