Step 1: Aligning the Vertical Stabilizer
❑
Remove the rudder and hinges from the stabilizer and
set them aside.
❑
Set the vertical stabilizer into place. To align it properly,
the rear edge of the stabilizer should be even with the rear
edge of the
fuselage
and the stabilizer should be pushed down
firmly.
☛
Lining up the trailing edge of the vertical stabilizer
with the back of the fuselage will prevent the rudder from
interfering with the elevator joiner wire.
❑
While holding the stabilizer in place, use a pencil to
outline the stabilizer onto the top of the fuselage.
❑
Using a builder's triangle, check to make sure that the
vertical stabilizer is aligned 90º to the horizontal stabilizer.
