Step 89 - Fuselage Assembly (P2)

Glue the P2 assembly in 

place on the underside of the 

fuselage as shown.

Now it’s time to start construction of the tail surfaces.

Prepare your work area

Position the horizontal stab /elevator plan side over the surface 

and tape into position and cover with waxed paper. 

Step 90 - Stab (S1 and S2)

Locate the four S1s from BP6 

and the four S2s from sheet 

BP7. Carefully stack two S1s 

and glue them together to form 

a single 1/4” thick S1, then do 

the same for the remaining S1s. 

Take two of the S2s, stack and 

glue them to form a single 1/4” 

thick S2. Do the same with the remaining S2 pieces.

Step 91 - Stab (outer framing)

The two S1 assemblies 

should be pinned in 

place and glued to each 

other. The S2 assemblies 

should be pinned in 

place next. Measure two 

lengths of 1/4 x 1/2” balsa to make the leading and trailing edges 

of the stab. Glue all of these pieces together.

It can make things easier to line up by using a long straight-edge 

as we’ve done in this photo.

Step 92 - Stab (inner framing)

Using 1/4” square balsa, cut 

and glue in the inner framing 

of the stab. First one side, 

then the other.

When the glue has cured, 

remove the stab from the 

board.

Step 93 - Elevator (S3 and S4)

Locate the four S3’s and the four 

S4s from sheet BP7. Carefully 

stack two S3’s and glue them 

together to form a single 1/4” 

thick S3, then do the same for 

the remaining S3s. Take two of 

the S4s, stack and glue them to 

form a single 1/4” thick S4. Do 

the same with the remaining S4 

pieces.

Step 94 - Elevator (leading edge)

The two S3 and two S4 

assemblies should be pinned 

in place. Measure two lengths 

of 1/4 x 1/2” balsa to make 

the leading edges of the stab. 

Glue all of these pieces in 

place.

Again, it can make things easier to line up by using a long straight-

edge as we’ve done in this photo.

Step 95 - Elevator (trailing edge and inner framing)

Using 1/4” square balsa, cut 

and glue in the inner framing 

of the elevator halves, first 

one side, then the other.

Locate left over G1s from BP1-

4 and glue them into the rear 

outer corner as shown here.

Step 96 - Elevator (joiner)

Measure and cut the elevator 

joiner to length from the included 

1/4” dowel. You will also need to 

cut notches into the leading edges 

of the elevator halves. When satisfied with the fit, glue the joiner 

in position.

Prepare your work area

Position the horizontal stab /elevator plan side over the surface 

and tape into position and cover with waxed paper. 

Step 97 - Vertical Fin/Rudder (RD1, RD2, RD3 and RD4)

Locate the two RD1s, two RD2s, 

two RD3s and two RD4s from 

BP6. Carefully stack two RD1s 

and glue them together to form 

a single 1/4” thick RD1, then 

do the same for the remaining 

RD2s, RD3s and RD4s. 

Step 98 - Vertical Fin/Rudder (outer framing)

Pin RD1 and RD2 in position. 

Measure and cut 1/4” x 1/2” strips 

to create the other framing of the 

vertical fin. Glue these in place.

Then pin RD3 and RD4 in position. 

Measure two more lengths to form 

the rudder frame. Do not glue the 

elevator to the rudder.

Step 99 - Vertical Fin/Rudder (internal framing)

Measure and cut the fin’s internal 

ribs from a 1/4” square strip. Take 

care to match the angles for a 

good fit. Pin these in position and 

glue into place.
