Using the Manual
This manual is divided into sections to help make assembly easier to understand, and to provide breaks between each major section. In addition, check boxes have been placed next to each step to keep track of each step completed. Steps with a single box () are performed once, while steps with two boxes () indicate that the step will require repeating, such as for a right or left wing panel, two servos, etc. Remember to take your time and follow the directions.
Before Starting Assembly
Before beginning the assembly of your PT-19 Trainer, remove each part from its bag for inspection. Closely inspect the fuselage, wing panels, rudder and stabilizer for damage. If you find any damaged or missing parts, contact the place of purchase.
If you find any wrinkles in the covering, use a heat gun or covering iron to remove them. Use caution while working around areas where the colors overlap to prevent separating the colors.

Horizontal Stabilizer Installation
Required Parts
• Stabilizer w/elevators
• Fuselage
• Elevator joiner wire
Required Tools and Adhesives
• Felt-tipped pen • 30-minute epoxy
• Mixing cups • Mixing sticks
• Hobby knife w/#11 blade • Square
• Ruler • Paper towel
• Rubbing alcohol
Step 1
Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the covering
from the slot in the fuselage for the horizontal stabilizer.
4 Hangar 9 PT-19 CL Assembly Manual
Step 2
The elevators have been shipped in position on the stabilizer with the hinges. They are not glued and will need to be removed to install the stabilizer in the fuselage.
Step 3
Locate the notch in the stabilizer that will allow clearance for the control horn in the elevator joiner wire. Use a hobby knife
and #11 blade to remove the covering to expose the notch.
Step 4
Slide the stabilizer into the slot in the fuselage. Slide the stabilizer forward as far as possible in the slot. Center the stabilizer (A=A) in the fuselage. Also check the tips of the stabilizer are an equal distance from a point centered at the front of the fuselage (B=B). Make sure the notch in the stabilizer is located on the left side of the fuselage. Left is determined as if you were sitting in the cockpit piloting the aircraft.
Step 5
Once aligned, use a felt-tip pen to trace the outline of the fuselage on the stabilizer. Mark the stabilizer on both the top and bottom, left and right.
Step 6
Carefully use a hobby knife to remove the covering 1/16-inch (1.5mm) from inside the lines. Use light pressure with a new
#11 blade to avoid cutting into the underlying wood. You will
need to trim the covering from the top and bottom of the stabilizer at this time.
Note: Other options other than a hobby knife are to use a hot knife (with a new blade) or a soldering iron for cutting the covering. These will melt the covering and lower the chances of cutting into the wood structure of the stabilizer.
Hint: Use a paper towel and rubbing alcohol to remove the lines drawn on the stabilizer before gluing the stabilizer into the fuselage.

Step 6
Slide the stabilizer back into the fuselage. Check both sides of the stabilizer to make sure it is square with the fuselage. If not, lightly sand the opening in the fuselage for the stabilizer to correct any alignment issues.
Step 7
Slide the stabilizer to the side so the elevator joiner wire can be positioned in the fuselage. Notice that the control horn will align in the slot in the stabilizer.
Step 8
Mix 1/2 ounce (15ml) of 30-minute epoxy and apply it to the exposed wood on the top and bottom of the stabilizer.
Step 9
Slide the stabilizer into position and check its alignment as described in Steps 4 and 6. Use a paper towel and rubbing alcohol to remove any excess epoxy that will ooze from the joint between the fuselage and stabilizer. Allow the epoxy to fully cure before continuing.
Note: If epoxy does not ooze from the joint between the fuselage and stabilizer, you have not used enough epoxy. Go back to Step 8 and apply more epoxy as the stabilizer must be glued securely to the fuselage.

Elevator Installation
Required Parts
• Elevator (right and left) • Fuselage assembly
Required Tools and Adhesives
• 30-minute epoxy • Thin CA
• Mixing cups • Mixing sticks
• Toothpicks • Hobby knife w/#11 blade
• Paper towel • Rubbing alcohol
• T-pins
 Step 1
Use a hobby knife to remove the covering in the notch and where the elevator joiner wire will fit in the elevator. The elevator with the notch is the left side elevator. Remove the covering in the right elevator for the joiner wire at this time as well.
Note: Only one elevator will have the notch that fits the elevator control horn in the joiner wire.
 Step 2
Remove the hinges from the elevator. Place a T-pin in the center of each hinge. This will keep them centered equally between the elevator and stabilizer when they are installed.
 Step 3
Slide the hinges back into the elevator.
 Step 4
Test fit the elevator to the stabilizer by sliding the hinges from the elevator in the stabilizer. Don’t forget to insert the joiner wire into the elevator as well. The elevator will rest tight against the stabilizer when installed.
7Hangar 9 PT-19 CL Assembly Manual
 Step 5
Mix a small amount of 30-minute epoxy and apply it to both the elevator joiner wire and the hole in the elevator half the joiner wire fits into. Make sure not to get any epoxy where it could accidentally glue the joiner wire to the stabilizer. Reposition the elevator and make sure the tip of the elevator aligns with the tip of the stabilizer.
Hint: Use a paper towel and rubbing alcohol to remove any excess epoxy before continuing.
Step 6
Repeat Steps 1 though 5 to attach the remaining elevator half to the stabilizer,
Step 7
Remove the T-pins from the hinges. Check to make sure you arebe able to achieve around 30–45 degrees of deflection for aerobatic flight. Deflect the elevator (don’t move it away from the stabilizer) and apply thin CA to the top and bottom of the hinges. Use enough CA so it wicks into the hinge to bond the hinge to the surrounding wood of the stabilizer and elevator. Allow the CA to cure before proceeding.
Note: Do not use a CA accelerator on the hinges. The CA must be allowed to soak into the hinge naturally to provide the best bond between the hinge and surrounding wood.
Step 8
Gently attempt to separate the elevator and stabilizer to make sure the hinges are properly glued. If not, apply additional CA to secure loose hinges. Flex the elevator up and down a few times to break-in the hinges to complete the hinging process.

Vertical Fin Installation
Required Parts
• Fuselage assembly • Vertical fin
Required Tools and Adhesives
• 30-minute epoxy
• Mixing cups • Mixing sticks
• Toothpicks • Hobby knife w/#11 blade
• Paper towel • Rubbing alcohol
Step 1
Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the covering
from the top of the fuselage to fit the vertical fin. Also remove the covering from the very aft end of the fuselage leaving 1/16-inch (1.5mm) of covering on each side of the fuselage as shown in the second photo below.
Step 2
Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the covering
from the bottom of the fin where it fits into the fuselage. Also remove the covering from the fin where it meets the aft end of the fuselage.
Step 3
Test fit the fin to the fuselage. Use a square to check that the fin fits square to the stabilizer. Use 30-minute epoxy to glue the fin to the fuselage. Apply epoxy to the exposed wood of the fin and fuselage. Allow the epoxy to fully cure before proceeding.
Hint: Use a paper towel and rubbing alcohol to remove any excess epoxy before continuing.
