When you are sure that everything is aligned correctly,
mix up a generous amount of 5- minute epoxy. Apply a
thin layer to the bottom of the stabilizer mounting area
and to the stabilizer mounting platform sides in the
fuselage. Slide the stabilizer in place and re-align.
Double check all of your measurements one more time
before the epoxy cures. Remove any excess epoxy
using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol and hold the
stabilizer in place with T-pins or masking tape.
A/B Epoxy glue
After the epoxy has fully cured, remove the masking
tape or T-pins used to hold the stabilizer in place and
carefully inspect the glue joints. Use more epoxy to fill in
any gaps that may exits that were not filled previously
and clean up the excess using a paper towel and
rubbing alcohol.
C/A glue.
Using a modeling knife, remove the covering from over
the pre-cut servo arm exit hole on the horizontal
stabilizer servo tray / hatch.
