5. Installing the tailwheel, rudder and eleva-
tor
Glue the wire tailwheel unit (attached to the tail-
wheel bracket) to the rudder using Ropoxi 5-mi-
nute epoxy (see illustration).
Slip the elevator joiner through the opening in the
fin. Glue the hinges in the elevators using cyano,
and fix the elevator joiner in place using Ropoxi
5-minute epoxy.
Now insert the rudder hinges and glue them in
place with cyano. Install the rudder as shown.
When the glue has set hard, check that the rud-
der deflects freely to both sides, and carry out
any adjustments required.
6. Installing the tailplane struts
The tailplane struts are attached using 1.5 mm
aluminium brackets, which are screwed to the
struts, the fuselage and the tailplane.
