2.6 Vertical Stabilizer Installation
Parts Required:
o
Main Wing Assembly
o
Vertical Stabilizer Assembly
1)
Apply a bead of glue down the entire length of the bottom of the vertical stabilizer assembly. Press
the glued vertical stab assembly onto the top of the main wing assembly onto the proper slots,
ensuring that the stab sits evenly on the wing. Allow the glue to cure fully prior to proceeding.
2)
Secure the push rod z-bends to the carbon rods by using glue and heat shrink tube. Glue one
rudder joiner control horn and dry fit the other. Adjust the control rod length and then shrink the
heat shrink tube to “lock” the z-bend wire in place to ensure that the rudder is straight with the
vertical stabilizer. Once the rod length is set, attach the unglued control horn to the z-bend and
then glue the assembly in place.
