2mm x 6mm sheet metal screw (2)

2mm x 8mm machine screw (3)

Required Tools and Adhesives

1. Locate the eight rigging fittings. Using needle

nose pliers, make a slight bend (about 30 degrees)

in each of the fittings as shown. Make the bend as

close to the smaller hole as shown in the photo.

Make sure to use threadlock on all metal-to-

metal fasteners so they don’t vibrate loose.



2. Attach a fitting to the top and bottom of the

stabilizer using a 2mm x 8mm machine screw

and a 2mm nut. Make sure the small hole in the

fitting faces in the direction of the hole in the fin on

the top, and to the pre-drilled hole for the fitting

on the bottom of the fuselage. Use a #1 Phillips

screwdriver and 4mm nut driver to tighten the

hardware. Install fittings on both the left and right

stabilizers at this time. Do not fully tighten the nuts

at this time.



3. Attach a pair of rigging fittings to the rudder

using a 2mm x 8mm machine screw and a 2mm

nut. Make sure the small hole in the fitting faces

in the direction of the fittings on the top of the

stabilizer. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver and 4mm

nut driver to tighten the hardware. Do not fully

tighten the nuts at this time.
