6. Glue the stab in place making sure that the stab is
properly aligned. Allow the glue to harden before continuing
with step #7.

7. Insert the vertical fin into the slot at the rear of the
fuselage. Mark the outline of the fuselage to the fin. Cut the
covering from the fin and glue the fin in place, making sure it is
perpendicular to the stab. If needed, hold the fin in position with
masking tape to assure that the fin remains perpendicular.
You can now remove the wings and continue with the
assembly of the fuselage.

2. Glue four hinges to the fin and rudder with thin CA.
This kit comes with a convenient carrying handle for the

it will allow you to turn the plane upside-down on the
workbench without flexing or bending the center cabanes.
