E-flite Sukhoi SU-26m 480 ARF Assembly Manual

Placing a #11 hobby blade between the elevator and

stabilizer to position the two will result in a nice free-

moving hinge for 3D throws without any binding.

Do not use CA accelerator during the hinging

process. The CA must be allowed to soak into the

hinge to provide the best bond. Using accelerator

will not provide enough time for this process.

11. Remove the T-pins and apply thin CA to each

hinge. Make sure the hinge is fully saturated with

CA. Use a paper towel to clean up any excess CA

from the elevator and stabilizer. Make sure to apply

CA to both sides of the hinge.

12. Firmly grasp the stabilizer and gently pull on the

elevator to ensure the hinges are secure and cannot

be pulled apart. Use caution when gripping the

elevator and stabilizer to avoid crushing the structure.

13. Work the elevator up and down several times to

work in the hinges and check for proper movement.
