 2. Once you are satisfi ed with the fi t of the stabilizer 

halves, remove the stabilizer halves and the joiner tubes. 
Use medium grit sandpaper to roughen up the aluminum 
tubes. Clean the tubes with denatured alcohol and insert 
both tubes back into the fuselage until the end exits on 
the opposite side by approximately 1" [25mm].

❏

 3. Gather everything required for gluing the stabilizer 

halves to the fuselage including 30-minute epoxy, mixing 
sticks, epoxy brush, 12" [304mm] long dowel or wire, 
masking tape, denatured alcohol and small paper towel 
squares. Mix up 3/4 oz. [22.1cc] of 30-minute epoxy. 

Apply a generous amount of epoxy to the long side of 

the aluminum joiner tubes. Pull the tubes through the 
fuselage so that they are close to centered. Pour a small 
amount of epoxy into both holes of one of the stabilizer 
halves and using a dowel or wire, coat the inside of 
the holes. Apply epoxy to the root rib of the stabilizer 
and the fuselage. Insert the end of the aluminum tubes 
with epoxy on them into the stabilizer and press the 
stabilizer against the fuselage. Wipe off any excess 
epoxy that may have squeezed out before it runs down 
the fuselage. Quickly repeat the process on the other 
side. Wipe off any excess epoxy with a dampened paper 
towel and denatured alcohol. Use pieces of masking 
tape to hold the stabilizer tight against the fuselage 
until the epoxy cures.

Fw 190 FACT

The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 was designed so that 
minimal trim changes were required at various 
speeds. The ailerons and rudder did not require 
adjustable in-fl ight trim tabs. Small, fi xed trim 
tabs were attached to the trailing edge and were 
adjusted during the initial fl ight. However, the 
horizontal stabilizer was adjustable using an 
electric motor. It could be adjusted from -3 to +5 
degrees of incidence.

 4. Without using any glue, install four hinges into the 

rudder. Note that the pivot point of each hinge must 
align with the center of the leading edge. To achieve this 
alignment, the hinges will be fairly deep in the rudder. 

Also note that the hinges must be perpendicular to the 

leading edge.

❏

 5. Again without glue, test fi t the rudder to the fi n. 

Move it left and right a few times to align the hinges. The 

rudder doesn’t have to move very far, only 2" [50.8mm] 
left and 2" [50.8mm] right measured at the widest part 
of the rudder at the trailing edge. If there is too much 
resistance, or if you are not able to move the rudder left 
and right 2" [50.8mm], widen the gap slightly between 
the rudder and fi n.

❏

 6. Remove the rudder and all the hinges. Add a 

small drop of oil to the pivot point on the hinges. This 
will prevent the epoxy from adhering to the pivot point. 
Make sure oil does not get on the gluing surface of the 
hinge. If it does, clean the oil off with a paper towel 
dampened with denatured alcohol.

❏

 7. Please read the complete instructions in this step 

before mixing up the epoxy. Mix up approximately ¼ oz. 
[7.4cc] of 30-minute epoxy. Use a toothpick to thoroughly 
apply the epoxy in the holes in the fi n and rudder. Use 
the toothpick to get the epoxy out of the opening of 
the holes in the rudder and fi n so it doesn’t get into 
the pivot pin. Wipe away any excess epoxy around the 
outside of the holes with a paper towel dampened with 
denatured alcohol.

Use the toothpick to apply epoxy to the ends of the 
rudder hinges that go into the fi n. Insert each hinge into 
the fi n and wipe away any excess epoxy that squeezes 
out of the hole.

Apply epoxy to the other end of the hinges. Join the 

rudder to the fi n, pushing the hinges only about 3/4 of 
the way into the rudder. Use a toothpick to wipe away 
any epoxy that squeezes out. Then, fi t the rudder the 
rest of the way on.

Move the rudder left and right a few times to align the 
hinges and make certain that the rudder defl ects left 
and right enough. Alloy the epoxy to cure, checking it 
a couple of times while it cures.
