Locate the two elevator halves and four of the C.A. hinges. Also
locate two control horns for the elevators. You will also need four
2mm x 16mm bolts to attach the control horns to the elevators. Mark
and drill the holes for the control horn screws on each right and left
elevators. Install the control horns and two C.A. hinges for each elevator.
❏
With the C.A. hinges in place on the elevators use a a small T-pin to
hold the hinge in place when installing onto the stabilizer. Apply a
small amount of thin C.A. to all 4 hinges, remember to apply glue to
the top and bottom of the hinges.

two 2mm x 16mm screws.

the rudder so the tailwheel wire can recess on the rudder.

Apply CA to both sides of the hinges.
