Brackets
Install the aluminum brackets onto the tail for the wire bracing. There are a total
of seven brackets for the tail assembly. There are four identical brackets that are
for the horizontal stabilizer, two with steeper bands that are for the vertical
stabilizer, and a double sided bracket that mounts on the aft screw of the tail
wheel bracket under the fuselage.
Attach the nylon clevises and threaded cable
ends to the metal tail brackets. Install the
included cables and crimp into position.
Balance cable tensions.
