INSTALLING HORIZONTAL STABILIZER

3.
On the bottom of the aft end of the fuselage you will
find a notch for the horizontal stabilizer to be placed.
Make a center mark on the front of the saddle on the
fuselage and place the horizontal stabilizer into the
horizontal stabilizer saddle, aligning the two marks
you just made. Tape the leading edge of the stabilizer
to the fuselage to secure it for now.
4.
Align the horizontal stabilizer by measuring from a
fixed point on the wing to the outside of the trailing
edge tip of the horizontal stabilizer. Be sure that the
leading edge stays on its center mark. Adjust the
stabilizer until you have an equal distance on both the
right and left sides of the stabilizer to the wing.
5.
When you are satisfied with the alignment of the tail
to the wing, carefully mark the position with a pencil
at the junction where the horizontal stabilizer meets
the fuselage. The pencil should leave a slight
indentation in the covering.
6.
Remove the horizontal stabilizer from the fuselage.
Using your hobby knife and a straight edge, carefully
cut the covering approximately

inside the lines
you drew. It is very important that you do not
press hard enough to cut into the wood as
doing so could weaken the horizontal stabilizer.
7.
Mix approximately
1
/4 ounce of 30-minute epoxy to
install the horizontal stabilizer. Using an epoxy brush
or mixing stick, spread the epoxy onto the top of the
horizontal stabilizer where it comes into contact with
the fuselage.
8.
Lay the stabilizer onto a flat work surface and position
the fuselage onto it, making sure it is centered and
aligned as per Step 3 and 4.
➤
Hint: Reference the bare wood that you just exposed
to re-align the stabilizer. Place a heavy object (that
won’t damage the fuselage structure) on top of the
fuselage to press the stabilizer and fuselage together.
➤
Note: Be sure that the horizontal stabilizer and
fuselage are assembled on a good, flat surface and that
they are level with each other.
9.
Wipe off any excess epoxy using a paper towel and
rubbing alcohol. Allow the epoxy to cure fully before
proceeding to the next step.
