4. Check the alignment of the horizontal stabilizer. The
distance from the center of the nose of the fuselage to the
tips of the horizontal stabilizer should be equal.
❏
5. The wing and stabilizer should be parallel. If they are
not, lightly sand the stabilizer slot.
❏
6. Use 30-minute epoxy to glue the stabilizer in the fuselage.
Wipe off any excess epoxy with a paper towel and denatured
alcohol.

7. Clean the tail gear wire.
❏
8. Position the tail gear by temporarily installing the rudder.
❏
9. Center and attach the tail gear to the fuselage.
❏
10. Remove the rudder and hinges. Add a small drop of oil
to the pivot point on each hinge. The oil will prevent the epoxy
from adhering to the pivot point. Makes sure the 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.
