Position and pin die-cut center platform over plan. Cut
stab leading edge (L.E.) joiner from 1/4” x 3/4” balsa to
match with plan and pin in position.
Assemble die-cut curved L.E. segments to form stab
outline, glue all parts together.
2. From 1/8”x 1/4” strip balsa, cut all trusses to size over
plan. Trim to fit well-don’t force into place. Glue in place.
Let dry thoroughly.
3. Assemble elevator halves, fin and rudder in same
manner as stab, using die-cut and stick parts.
4. Wrap 100-200 grit sandpaper around 1/4” x4-1/2”

place. Join them with the 1/4” dowel, glue it securely in
place! Let dry thoroughly.
