HORIZONTAL STABILIZER INSTALLATION
1. Using a modeling knife, cut away the covering from the fuselage for the stabilizer and remove it.
2. Remove the covering from the stabilizer.
When cutting through the covering to remove it, cut with only enough pressure to only cut through the covering it's self. Cutting into the balsa structure may weaken it. This could lead to possible failure during flight.
3. Attach the wing to the fuselage as picture.
4. Test the position of the elevator and adjust it as shown.
5. When you are sure that everything is aligned correctly, mix up a generous amount of 30 minute epoxy. Apply a thin layer to the bottom and to the top of the stabilizer mounting area and to the stabilizer mounting platform sides in the fuselage. Insert the stabilizer in place and re-align. Double check all of your measurements one more time before the epoxy cures. Remove any excess epoxy using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol and hold the stabilizer in place with T-pins or masking tape.
6. After the epoxy has fully cured, remove the masking tape or T-pins used to hold the stabilizer in place and carefully inspect the glue joints. Use more epoxy to fill in any gaps that were not filled previously and clean up the excess using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol.
7. Repeat step 1 - step 2 from the installing aileron for the installing elevator.

2. Using a modeling knife, cut one length of silicon fuel line (the length of silicon fuel line is calculated by how the weighted clunk should rest about 5mm away from the rear of the tank and move freely inside the tank). Connect one end of the line to the weighted clunk and the other end to the nylon pick up tube in the stopper.
3. Carefully bend the second nylon tube up at a 45 degree angle (using a cigarette lighter). This tube will be the vent tube to the muffler.
4. Carefully bend the third nylon tube down at a 45 degree angle (using a cigarette lighter). This tube will be vent tube to the fueling valve.
When the stopper assembly is installed in the
tank, the top of the vent tube should rest just below the top surface of the tank. It should not touch the top of the tank.
5. Test fit the stopper assembly into the tank. It may be necessary to remove some of the flashing around the tank opening using a modeling knife. If flashing is present, make sure none of it falls into the tank.

6. When satisfied with the alignment of the stopper assembly tighten the 3mm x 20mm machine screw until the rubber stopper expands and seals the tank opening. Do not over tighten the assembly as this could cause the tank to split.
7. Using a modeling knife, cut 3 lengths of fuel line 150mm long. Connect 2 lines to the 2 vent tubes and 1 line to the fuel pickup tube in the stopper.
8. Feed three lines through the fuel tank compartment and through the pre-drilled hole in the firewall. Pull the lines out from behind the engine, while guiding the fuel tank into place. Push the fuel tank as far forward as possible, the front of the tank should just about touch the back of the firewall.
Blow through one of the lines to ensure the fuel
lines have not become kinked inside the fuel tank compartment. Air should flow through easily.
Do not secure the tank into place permanently
until after balancing the airplane. You may need to remove the tank to mount the battery in the fuel tank compartment.

3. Turn the airplane upside down. Place your fingers on the masking tape and carefully lift the plane.
4. If the nose of the plane falls, the plane is nose heavy. To correct this first move the battery pack further back in the fuselage. If this is not possible or does not correct it, stick small amounts of lead weight on the fuselage under the horizontal stabilizer. If the tail of the plane falls, the plane is tail heavy. To correct this, move the battery and receiver forward or if this is not possible, stick weight into the firewall. When balanced correctly, the airplane should sit level or slightly nose down when you lift it up with your fingers.
BALANCING
1. It is critical that your airplane be balanced correctly. Improper balance will cause your plane to lose control and crash.
THE CENTER OF GRAVITY IS LOCATED 145mm
(5.7 in) BACK FROM THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WING, AT THE FUSELAGE. BALANCE A PLANE UPSIDE DOWN WITH THE FUEL TANK EMPTY.
2. Mount the wing to the fuselage. Using a couple of pieces of masking tape, place them on the top side of the wing 145mm (5.7 in) back from the leading edge, at the fuselage sides.

LATERAL BALANCE
After you have balanced a plane on the C.G.
You should laterally balance it. Doing this will help the airplane track straighter.
1. Turn the airplane upside down. Attach one loop of heavy string to the engine crankshaft and one to the tail wheel wire. With the wings level, carefully lift the airplane by the string. This may require two people to make it easier.
2. If one side of the wing fall, that side is heavier than the opposite. Add small amounts of lead weight to the bottom side of the lighter wing half's wing tip. Follow this procedure until the wing stays level when you lift the airplane.

After you have balanced a plane on the C.G.
You should laterally balance it. Doing this will help the airplane track straighter.
1. Turn the airplane upside down. Attach one loop of heavy string to the engine crankshaft and one to the tail wheel wire. With the wings level, carefully lift the airplane by the string. This may require two people to make it easier.
2. If one side of the wing fall, that side is heavier than the opposite. Add small amounts of lead weight to the bottom side of the lighter wing half's wing tip. Follow this procedure until the wing stays level when you lift the airplane.
