10. Assemble the 1/16" R10 parts, which are found on the half sheet of 1/16" balsa, as shown below, one on each side of the rudder.
Make sure the slots are lined up and secure with thin or thick CA.
11. After all CA has finished drying, set the fin and rudder in a safe place and continue onto the next step.
12. Locate and remove the 1/8" stab parts from the 1/8" sheet. They are in the top section of the sheet. Lay them out as shown below. It
may be helpful to match up parts in pairs, then select one from each set for each side of the stab. Start with the outside parts, S1,
S2, S3, and S4 and assemble them over the plan, but do NOT glue them yet. Then install the inside parts as shown on the plans.
After all the parts are installed, secure all joints with thin CA, making sure the parts are flat on your building surface.
13. Locate and remove the elevator parts from the 1/8" balsa sheet. They are all in the same section on the sheet. Start with the outside
parts, E1, E2, E3, and E4, assembling them over the plan, but do NOT glue them yet. Install the inside pieces as shown on the plan.
After all parts are fully assembled, make sure they are flat on your building surface and secure all joints with thin CA.
14. Locate the 1/8" dowel and cut it to length as shown on the elevator section of the plan sheet. Join the elevator halves over the plan
sheet using thick CA or epoxy. Make sure you get a good glue joint! After it has dried, set the tail feather assemblies aside and
continue with the next section.
