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
