Setup like this:

The kevlar string I had, I'm a sailplaner at heart, but you can get it here:

The string will probably hold 200 pounds, so the balsa in the tail will break first.

You could probably just take the kevlar string a round toothpick at the vertical fin and stab and wrap the kevlar around a small screw, (servo mounting screw), and that would provide enough support. I had everything on hand so I used it. The plane looks great except for the UGLY tail bracing.

You know to add the LG fix? and don't have too much elevator throw or it will drop the left wing. It's a fun cheap airplane.
