Elevator Installation: Stab Installation<br />
1 For installation of the stab you will need the bent steel rod, the stabs and a servo arm from your elevator<br />
servo packaging.<br />
2 Rub down the steel rod with sandpaper to rough it up a bit.<br />
3 Insert the rod into the fuselage, even it out and mark (on the rod) the points where it exits the fuse using<br />
a marker.<br />
4 Slide the wooden spacers over the rod ends and tack glue them with CA to the fuselage stab root<br />
outlines.<br />
5 Make sure that the rod can still pivot/move freely.<br />
Attaching the First Stab<br />
6 Slide a piece of cling film over the rod up against the wood spacer.<br />
7 Apply 5 min epoxy to the rod end and slide the stab onto the rod. Check to make sure your rod marks<br />
are still visible on the other side.<br />
8 Position the stab so that it presses against the spacer, and is lined up with root outline. The rod should<br />
self adjust to match your stab positioning.<br />
9 Let fully cure. You can use tape to hold the stab in position.<br />
10 Remove the single stab/rod assembly, clean up any epoxy that may have gotten past the cling film.<br />
