Tail Construction.
1. Install the two aluminum stab tubes in the fuse-
lage with the longer one in the rear.
2. Slide the stab half onto the tubes and tightly
against the fuselage side. Install the two 4-40
x 1/2” bolts into the mounting tabs on the bot-
tom of fuselage. Blind nuts are pre-mounted in
the fuselage. Be sure to use lock-tite on the
bolts. Repeat for the other stab half.
3. Install the control horns on the elevators in the
same manner as you did the ailerons.
4. Because of the location of the stab tube, the
inboard elevator hinge will have to be cut off at
the end of the second serration, cut off 1/2”.
Make sure hinge will go into stab up the hinge
pin.
