Set the horizontal stabilizer assembly on top of the
fuselage.
❑
To align the stabilizer properly, the back edge of the
fiberglass spar should be even with the back edge of the
fuselage and the centerline you drew on top of the stabilizer
should be centered over the middle of the fuselage.
❑
When satisfied with the alignment, hold the stabilizer in
place and use a pencil to draw two lines on the bottom of the
stabilizer (one on each side) where it meets the fuselage sides.
❑
Mix a small quantity of 5 minute epoxy and apply a thin layer to only the bottom of the stabilizer between the two
lines you drew.
❑
Set the stabilizer back into place and realign it. Remove any excess epoxy using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol,
and hold the stabilizer firmly in place until the epoxy sets up.
Step 1: Hinging the Rudder
