Securing the stabilizers
Proceed as for the wings. The stabilizers are not pre-drilled.
Fill the carbon fiber tube with two hardwood plugs at each end.
Insert the carbon tube in the fin pod, making sure it remains centered.
Insert one stabilizer. Mark the tube axis with a section of tape.
Drill this side at 2.5 mm, 100 mm from the root, on the tube axis previously marked.
Tap at M3. Insert a short countersink head screw.
Insert the other stabilizer. Mark the tube center.
Drill the other side similarly. Tap at M3 and insert another screw.
Upon removing the stabilizer, mark the tube for up/ down, side and position.
