Step 1. Locate the two elevator halves. Trial fit each into their
proper position using the same hinging techniques learned in
Section 1.
Step 2. With one elevator half properly aligned (left and right),
apply thin CA glue to the hinges on both sides. Wipe away any
excess CA with CA debonder and a paper towel.
Step 3. After the hinges are dry, check to be sure they are
securely in place by trying to pull the elevator from the horizontal
stabilizer. Use care not to crush the structure.
Step 4. Repeat the previous procedure for the other elevator
half.
Step 5. Be sure to wipe away any excess CA with CA debonder.
