❏
1. Remove the canopy from the fuselage. Do this by sliding
the canopy forward towards the fi rewall and then lifting the
back of the canopy.
❏
2. Center the wing tube in the fuselage. Slide the wing
halves onto the wing tube and secure the wing halves to the
fuselage with the nylon 10-24 thumb screws.
❏
3. Install the elevator joiner wire into the stab opening in
the fuselage.
❏
4. Center the horizontal stabilizer in the slot in the fuselage.
The covering has been removed from the center of the stab.
Align the stab so that the uncovered center section of the
stab is completely inside of the fuselage. Stand back and
look at the stab in relation to the wing. The stab should be
parallel with the wing. If not, sand the stab saddle until the
stab and wings are aligned.
