Step 3
Use a ruler to mark the center of the stabilizer.
Do not use the covering as a guide as it may not
be centered. Use a T-pin at the rear of the
stabilizer as a pivot and to keep the stabilizer in
position on the fuselage.
Step 4
Check the alignment of the stabilizer to the wing.
Position the stabilizer so the measurements from
the stabilizer tips to the wing tips are equal. Also
check that the stabilizer is parallel to the wing.
Lightly sand the stabilizer saddle if adjustments
are required.
Step 5
Use a felt-tipped pen to trace the outline of the
fuselage on the stabilizer. Use a hobby knife
and #11 blade to remove the covering from the
center of the stabilizer 1/16-inch (1.5mm)
inside the line drawn. Use 30-minute epoxy to
glue the stabilizer to the fuselage. Use a paper
towel and rubbing alcohol to remove any
excess epoxy before it has a chance to fully
cure. Allow the epoxy to cure before
proceeding.
