touches the flying wire bracket, center and
install with the three screws.
Open the holes in the fin and stabilizer for
the flying wire brackets. The holes are small
and difficult to find. Use a pin to puncture
the covering. See the dimensions in the
photos.
Bend the flying wire brackets so they point
along the line the wire will take. The fin, top,
and bottom of the stabilizer will all require
different bends. Install the brackets with the
supplied screw, nuts and washers. Do not
install the flying wires at this time.
Locate the hinges for the elevator /
stabilizer. Stick a pin through the center of
each hinge.
Assemble the elevator / stabilizer using the
pins to keep the hinges centered. Align the
edges, remove the pins, and apply two drops
of thin CA to each side of the hinges.
Open the hole in the bottom of the rudder
for the tiller-arm control link. Work a small
amount of Epoxy or “White” glue into the
hole, and then thread in the link until the
shoulder contacts the rudder. Be sure the
tiller-arm hole in the link is in line with the
rudder.
Use the same method to center the hinges as
was done with the elevator and assemble the
rudder/fin. Be sure to engage the tiller-arm
and control link. Align the top edge, remove
the pins when satisfied, and apply the CA to
the hinges as before.
