Q 2. Place the stab on the back of the fuselage with
a small weight on top of the middle of the stab.
Stand back from the fuselage and view the
straightedge and the stab. If necessary, use your bar
sander with 80-grit sandpaper to carefully sand the
tops of the fuselage sides until the stab aligns with
the straightedge.
Q 5. With the stab in position on the fuselage, use a
ballpoint pen to mark the location of the leading
edge of the stab on the top of the fuselage sides. This
indicates where the top fuselage sheeting "ends."
U 3. Mark the top of the fuse sides 1/4" from the
end. Use the marks as a guide to cut a notch for the
leading edge of the elevator.
U 6. Sheet the top of the fuselage with the
1/16" x 3" x 12" balsa sheet between F3 and the
marks indicating the LE of the stab. Apply the
sheeting in "planks" running cross-grain as shown
on the fuselage plan.
LJ 4. Place the stab and elevator on the fuselage so
the aft edge of the elevator leading edge is 5/16" in
front of the aft end of the fuse. Move the elevator up
and down to a d j u s t the notch if the fuselage
interferes with the elevator LE.
U 7. Use your bar sander and 150-grit sandpaper
to sand the edges of the fuselage top even with the
fuselage sides.
LJ 8. Use medium CA to glue the die-cut 1/16"
plywood H4 aft hatch compartment top to the
