9...Use your hobby knife to open the control
horn slots in the rudder & elevators.  Insert
the rudder control horn so that the arm sticks
out of the left side of the rudder.  Insert the
elevator horn from the top so that the horn
sticks down from the bottom.  Now slide the
retainer plates onto the horns and press into
position to lock the control horn in place.
You will hear or feel two clicks when the
retainer is in the proper position.

To apply the decals, leave the clear plastic in
position while you cut the individual 
marking from the main sheet.  Then remove
the clear plastic and place the decal on the
model in the desired position, adhesive side
down.  Make sure you get the decal exactly
where you want it.  The light tack adhesive
allows the decal to be picked up and 
repositioned if necessary.  With the decal in
the proper position, use a brush to generously

12...Plug the airborne electronics together and test for proper function.  The two servos are plugged into channels 1 and 2 on the
receiver.  The electronic speed control plugs into channel 3 on the receiver.  Plug the motor, without the prop in place, into the 
output of the electronic speed control.  Fully charge the transmitter and airborne battery.

apply cold tap water to the paper.  The paper will immediately begin to soak up the water.  Let the paper soak for at least 30 seconds,
and then carefully SLIDE the paper from the top of the decal.  DO NOT try to lift the paper from the decal as it will damage the decal.
Also, after the paper is removed DO NOT try to move the decal on the model surface.  The decal is very thin and fragile.  If the decal
has air bubbles under it, use a soft cloth to pat out the bubbles, making sure that you pat straight up and down, not sideways.  DO NOT
try to push the bubbles sideways out from under the decal.  While these decals are more fragile than “normal” decals, the end result
is a marking that looks like it was painted on.  Allow the decal to dry at least one hour before handling.  

10... Attach the lower wing to the fuselage with two rubber
bands.  Use 5 minute epoxy to glue the horizontal 
stabilizer to the fuselage.  The stabilizer should be roughly
parallel to the wing and should not tilt to the left or right.
The slot for the fin mounting tab in the stabilizer should be
aligned with the corresponding slot in the fuselage.  Use
several straight pins to hold the stabilizer in position until
the epoxy sets.  Any excess epoxy that enters the fin slot in
the stabilizer and fuselage must be cleaned out before it
dries.

11...Use 5 minute epoxy to glue the vertical stabilizer to the
fuselage.  The vertical stabilizer should be 90° to the 
horizontal  and should not tilt to the left or right.  Use 
several straight pins to hold the vertical stabilizer in 
position until the epoxy sets.
