check the fuselage to make sure its level. I used the wing saddle and my eyeball for sanity check


install the stab tube and the FR4 washer


Check to see that it is level


CA glue in the tube socket


Before installing the flying stabs, I line the root with Felt.


Put one of the plywood disks on the tube to act as a spacer. This will help make sure you have not mounted the stab too close to the fuselage and have too much drag in movement. Obviously, you remove that spacer after you have finished the installation of the stab tubes.




If you look at the stab halves, you'll see the one with the hard point installed. Right side.


Drill the hole through the tube after you position the stab in its final location. The hardpoint is predrilled, the tube and socket are not.


Glue the stab tubes into the left side. Final fit looks good.
