Remove the horizontal stabilizer from the fuselage.
Using the sharp hobby knife, carefully cut away the
covering inside the lines which were marked above.
The elevator hinges are pre-glue into the
elevator halves. Working with one elevator half
for now, apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to
only the pivot point of the two hinges.
Without using glue yet, push the elevator half
and its hinges into the hinge slots in the trailing
edge of the horizontal stabilizer. There should
be a minimal hinge gap and the end of the
elevator half should not rub against the
horizontal stabilizer.
When satisfied with the fit and alignment, hinge
the elevator half to the horizontal stabilizer,
using thick CA glue. Make sure to apply a thin
layer of CA glue to the top and bottom of both
hinges. Repeat the previous procedures to
hinge the second elevator half to the other side
of the horizontal stabilizer.
Pull the horizontal stabilizer through the other side
of the fuselage and repeat the previous procedures
to glue the second torque rod wire into the horizontal
stabilizer.
Realign the horizontal stabilizer, then glue the
horizontal stabilizer into the fuselage, using a
generous amount of thin CA. Apply thin CA to each
of the four joints and use a generous amount to
ensure to strong bond.

NOTE: You may need to open up the slots of the
horizontal stabilizer so that the vertical stabilizer
is not too difficult to push in.
Cut away only
the covering
both sides.
