9. Slide a #4 washer on a 4-40 x 1/2-inch socket

head screw. Prepare two of these to secure the tail

to the fuselage.

10. Insert a 4-40 screw and washer into each of

the holes at the rear of the fuselage. Use a 3/32-

inch ball driver or hex wrench to tighten the two

screws. Do not over-tighten the screws and damage

the structure of the stabilizer or fuselage. They only

need to be tight enough to prevent the assembly

from moving when it is installed.

Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners

to prevent them from vibrating loose.
