24.

 

Sand and cover the vertical stabilizer. 

 

25.

 

Sand a 30 degree bevel on the trailing edge of the 

horizontal stabilizer. Sand and cover the horizontal 

stabilizer. 

 

26.

 

Join the elevator halves with a 3” piece of the 

included 1/8” dowel, use the horizontal stabilizer to 

ensure the elevators are spaced apart appropriately. 

Sand and cover the elevators. 

 

27.

 

Use tape to join the elevators to the horizontal 

stabilizer.  Cut the covering from the slots in the 

BOTTOM of the horizontal stabilizer and it to the 

fuselage. Using the fuselage sides as a guide, cut and 

remove the covering from the bottom of the stabilizer 

where it meets the fuselage. Ensure the horizontal 

stabilizer is straight and square to the fuselage and 

glue in place.
