8.9 Installing Horizontal Stabilizer
Like connecting the wings it is recommended to follow this procedure
by two persons. One person is needed to hold the stabilizer in place,
while the second person applying the two fixing bolts into their
bushes through the fuselage tail. Afterwards each bolt have to be
secured by a cowl pin.
Attention: Watch for the markings on the stabilizer bolts, because
they are different in length! The forward bolt is marked by a "V", the
rearward bolt by "H". At the end of each bolt you will find a little hole.
Once the bolt is installed, this hole must be aligned with the
appropriate hole of the stabilizer bush to fit the cowl pin.
Now you can connect the cable plug for the electric trim and the
elevator pushrod (same
as aileron connection). Finally attach the tail
cover and fix it by the provided screws.
8.10 Final Check after Assembling
As final step, you have to attach the pitot tube and make sure, that
all connections are fitted properly and secured as required. Make
sure that all control surfaces are working without friction and full
travel is provided.
8.11 Disassembling the Aircraft
To disassemble the aircraft you have to do the above described
procedures in reverse order.
