69. Fit the fi n in position. Check that it is square to the
fuselage.
70. Use tape to hold the fi n in position until the epoxy fully
cures. Check the position of the fi n to make sure it is still
square to the stabilizer while the epoxy is curing.
 ELEVATOR INSTALLATION
71. Remove the elevator joiner wire from the elevators.
Lightly sand the elevator joiner wire where it contacts
the elevators. Use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to
remove any oil or debris from the joiner.
72. Fit the joiner wire into the elevator halves. The elevator
joiner wire must be fl ush with the leading edge of the
elevator as shown. Check to make sure the elevator
halves are in alignment with each other.
 Poorly aligned elevators will cause problems
with trimming your model in flight.
73. Place the elevators on a fl at surface. Make sure both
elevators lay fl at on the surface.
74. If the elevators are not in alignment, use pliers to bend
the joiner wire slightly to bring the halves into alignment.
Continue the assembly of your model once the joiner
wire has been correctly checked and adjusted.
75. Use low-tack tape to secure a 2-inch (50mm) wide piece
of clear plastic or waxed paper around the stabilizer
against the fuselage. This will prevent accidentally gluing
the joiner wire and elevators to the stabilizer.
76. Use a pin vise and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill a
hole in the center of each hinge slot to allow the CA to
wick into the hinge. Drill holes in both the elevators and
stabilizer surfaces at this time. Place a T-pin in the center
of each hinge along side the slot in the hinge. This will
help center the hinge when it is placed in the elevators.
Slide the hinges into position with the T-pin resting
against the edge of the control surface.
77. Partially install the joiner wire into the elevator.
 Fitting the elevator to the stabilizer will require
you to be quick as not to allow the epoxy to cure
that secures the joiner wire. Read through and
practice these steps before mixing any epoxy.
78. Test fi t the elevator to the stabilizer by sliding the hinges
into the slots. The joiner wire will be installed in position
while the hinges are being inserted into the slots.
