12. Position the fin back onto the fuselage. Use a

square to check the alignment between the fin and

stabilizer. Lightly sand the bottom of the fin until the

alignment is correct. Use thin CA to glue the fin to

the fuselage. Also apply CA to the rudder post at

the back edge of the fuselage.

13. Insert the micro control horn into the slot in the

rudder. Make sure the holes in the control horn face

forward and that the horn is on the side opposite

the elevator control horn.

14. Slide the micro control horn backplate on the

control horn from the opposide side of the rudder

as the control horn. Apply 2–3 drops of thin CA

at the joint between the horn and backplate to

keep it secure.
