General Note: Cover the plans with wax paper before assembling your model to prevent the parts from sticking to the plan.
 

Building the Tail Surfaces

 
1.

 
Make the elevators by gluing parts E-2 to parts E-1 over the plan. 

 
2.

 
Join the elevators using the 1/8" dowel using the plan and part S-1 as a guide. Trim the dowel as required to achieve the 
proper length.

 
3.

 
Temporarily hinge the elevators to the stabilizer. Do not glue the hinges in place at this time. Sand the stabilizer smooth 
and sand the edges round. Glue R-2 to the top of R-3 over the plan.

 
4.

 
If you are going to fly your model 2 or 3 channel (no rudder control) then glue the rudder assembly to R-1.

 
4a.

 
If you are building the model 4 channel, temporarily hinge the rudder to the fin. Do not glue the hinges in place at this time.

 
5.

 
Sand these parts smooth and sand all edges round except the bottom of part R-1.

 
6.

 
Remove the hinges from the tail surfaces and set these parts aside until needed later in construction.

 

Building the Fuselage

 
7.

 
Glue the doublers F-2 to the inside of the fuselage sides (F-1). Be sure to make one right and one left hand side.

 
8.

 
Glue the 3/32" x 1/4" to the top and bottom of F-6 as shown on the plan.

 
9.

 
Position formers F-3 and F-4 on one fuselage side and glue them into position making sure that they are 90 degrees to the 
fuselage side.
