Step 1: Aligning the Vertical Stabilizer
Remove the rudder and hinges from the vertical stabilizer and set them aside for now.
Remove the elevator and hinges from the horizontal stabilizer and set them aside.
Using a modeling knife, cut away and remove the covering
material from over the vertical stabilizer mounting slot in the
top of the horizontal stabilizer.
Push the vertical stabilizer down into place. To align it
properly, it should be even with the back edge of the horizontal
stabilizer and it should be pushed down firmly.
Using a builder's triangle, check to make sure that the
vertical stabilizer is aligned 90º to the horizontal stabilizer.
While holding the vertical stabilizer firmly in place, use a pencil to draw a line on each side of the stabilizer where it
meets the top of the horizontal stabilizer.
