Note: The first few steps of installing the elevators is
necessary to make sure everything will operate properly.
Do not use any adhesives until instructed to do so.
1. Use a felt-tipped pen to mark the center of three CA
hinges. This will help in positioning them equally in the
elevator and stabilizer.
2 Slide the three hinges into the elevator, using the line
to center them properly. Install the control horn in the
stabilizer on the bottom side. Use a felt-tipped pen to
mark the area around the base of the control horn.
Remove the horn and use a hobby knife to cut the
covering away from the area inside the outline. Glue the
control horn using medium CA. A control horn backplate
is also installed on the top side of the elevator. Remove
the covering under this also.
3. Slide the elevator onto the elevator joiner wire.
