1. Attach the elevators to the stab with the same hinging

technique used for the ailerons.

2. Using a 7/64" hex wrench, remove the two 6-32 x 3/4"

[19mm] socket head cap screws from the stab fillet.

3. Use a #11 blade to cut between the false stab and the

stab fillet. Note: The false stab is used in building the fuse. It
can also be used for transport to keep the stab fillet in place.

4. Use a #11 blade to remove the false fin from the fin

slot. Note: It may be necessary to pry up slightly on the front
of the fin fillet to remove it.

5. Fit the fin in place and mark the covering on the fin

where it contacts the fuse.

6. Trim the covering 1/8" [3mm] below the lines you made

on the fin. Be very careful not to cut into the fin itself. Wipe
away the marks on the fin you made in the previous step.
The epoxy used in the next step will make removing those
lines difficult.
