Section 8 – Elevator Linkage Installation
19
Step 6
Cut off the first section of two of the hinges. This is
done to clear the tube installed in the elevator.
Step 7
Glue the elevator hinges in place using the same
techniques used to hinge the ailerons. The shortened
hinges will be installed into the stabilizer towards the
root. After hinging the elevator, use the same
technique to seal the elevator’s hinge gaps. Use Clear
UltraCote® for the bottom of the elevator.
Step 8
Insert the longer tube into the aft hole in the fuselage.
Measure the distance of the exposed tube and adjust
until both side are equal.
Step 9
Mark the tube on both side of the fuselage using a
felt-tipped pen.
