Section 11: Installing The Horizontal & Vertical Stabilizers
❑
1. Using a hobby knife, carefully cut out the covering at
the front of the horizontal stabilizer slot as shown. The
vertical stabilizer will later be inserted into this slot.
❑
2. Using a hobby knife, carefully cut out the openings on
the top rear of the fuselage. Also, cut out the plywood
section in the rear-most slot. The rear-most cutout is
where the vertical fin will fit; the forward cutout is for
the rudder pushrod exit.
❑
3. Position the horizontal stabilizer in place on the
fuselage and trial fit the vertical stabilizer in place.
Using a pencil, mark where the horizontal stabilizer and
vertical stabilizer meet on the vertical fin on both sides.
❑
4. Remove the vertical stabilizer and cut away the covering
below the marked section. Be careful not to cut into the
wood. A ruler is helpful in making a straight cut.
