Elevator repair on H9 Edge

A hard landing resulted in the landing gear taking out the port elevator as it flew off the plane. It ripped the elevator off right near the fuse. The elevator is built up balsa. What is the best method for repair without taking the whole rear stab off?

Do you have a pic or two of the damage?

I'd remove the other side also - you need some bracing from both sides of the fuselage.

Step 1: Buy a replacement stab from Horizon.

Step 2: Remove your broken stab.

Step 3: Slip the new one in and secure it.
