 2. Use a square and medium CA to glue the
stabilizer jig side to the structure assembled in Step
1. Use a square will keep the side perpendicular to
the stabilizer jig center. Not doing so may result in
the jig being crooked and could produce the wrong
angle when gluing the stabilizer halves together.
 3. Remove the elevators from the stabilizer halves.
Use a hobby knife w/#11 blade to remove
the covering from the end of both the left and
right stabilizers.
 4. The stabilizer halves have been prepared at the
factory with an angle so they fit tightly together
when joined. If fit together incorrectly, the two
halves will not fit tightly together.
 5. Place a piece of clear plastic or waxed paper
over the stabilizer jig to prevent gluing the
stabilizer directly to the jig.
 6. Position the two stabilizer halves together
(remember the angle) and align the front edges of
the stabilizer halves. Use a small piece of low-tack
tape to act as a hinge and keep the halves aligned.
