Section 6: Installing the Tail
Step 9. Mix up approximately 2 ounces of 30-minute epoxy.
Slide the horizontal stabilizer into the opening of the fuselage.
Use an epoxy brush to apply epoxy to the horizontal stabilizer.
By sliding the stabilizer back and forth slightly, epoxy can be
applied on the top and bottom. Then reposition it to the reference
marks and clean off the excess epoxy with rubbing alcohol and a
paper towel. Allow the epoxy to cure completely.
Step 10. Apply 30-minute epoxy to the vertical fin where the
fuselage contacts the fin. Also, apply epoxy to the base of the fin
where it mounts into the fuselage and horizontal stabilizer. Insert
the fin into the fuselage and wipe away any excess epoxy with a
paper towel and rubbing alcohol.
Step 11. Precisely align the horizontal stabilizer and the vertical
fin as before, using masking tape to hold the components in
proper alignment. Double check the alignment and allow the
epoxy to cure completely.
