Construction Manual

Step 63 - Elevator Assembly (outer edge)

Using scrap 1/4 x 1/2" balsa, cut and 

glue the outer tips for each elevator 

half as shown here.

Step 64 - Elevator Assembly (outer edge)

Using 1/4 x 1/2" balsa, 

cut and glue the trailing 

edges for each elevator 

half as shown here.

Step 65 - Elevator Assembly (inner framing)

Using 1/4 x 1/4" balsa, 

cut and glue the inner 

framing pieces for each 

elevator half as shown 

here.

Carefully run a sanding 

block over each elevator 

half framing assembly to make sure it's perfectly flat.

Step 66 - Elevator Assembly (ES3)

Locate two ES3s from 

BP10.

Glue one to the top of 

each elevator half.

Step 67 - Elevator Assembly (CH1)

Locate two CH1s from LP7.

Glue one inside the cutout in the ES3 as 

shown here. And yes, the leading edge 

of this piece will be a bit shy of the 1/4" 

x 1/2" balsa when properly positioned. 

That's so you don't have as much to sand 

later on. 

Step 68 - Elevator Assembly (ES3 & CH1)

Remove the elevator half assemblies, flip them over and give the 

open framework a quick sand just as you did before.

Now locate the other two ES3s from BP10 and the two CH1s from 

LP7.

Glue these in place as you did before to complete the elevator 

halves.

Prepare your work area

Now tape the vertical fin/rudder plan and a fresh piece of waxed 

paper on your building board. 

Step 69 - Vertical Fin Assembly (VF1, VF2 & VF3)

Locate VF1, VF2 and VF3 

from BP1 and BP2. Pin VF1 in 

position, then glue VF3 to VF1. 

Now glue VF2 to both VF1 and 

VF3.

Step 70 - Vertical Fin Assembly (VF7-VF10)

Locate VF7, VF8, VF9 and 

VF10 from BP2.

These are glued in position 

to form the internal bracing 

of the vertical fin.

Carefully run a sanding 

block over the framing 

assembly to make sure it's 

perfectly flat.

Step 71 - Vertical Fin Assembly (FS1 & FS2)

Locate both FS1s and FS2s 

from BP9. Just as you did with 

the horizontal stab sheeting, 

glue one FS1 and one FS2 

together to form a sheet for 

the vertical fin.

Make 2 of these.

Step 72 - Vertical Fin Assembly (sheeting)

Glue one of the sheets from the 

previous step to the framework.

Then remove the assembly, 

carefully sand it, then glue the 

other sheet over it to complete the 

vertical fin.

Step 73 - Rudder Assembly (VF4, VF5 & VF6)

Locate VF4, VF5 and VF6 from BP1 

and BP2. Pin VF5 in position, then 

glue VF6 to VF5. Now glue VF4 to 

both VF5 and VF6.

Step 74 - Vertical Fin Assembly (VF11-VF14)

Locate VF11, VF12, VF13 and VF14 

from BP2.

These are glued in position to form 

the internal bracing of the rudder.

Carefully run a sanding block over 

the framing assembly to make sure 

it's perfectly flat.
