Trial fit each part before gluing . Be certain that there are no gaps. If the parts will join, but with a gaps, sand or trim the parts a little at a time until the parts meet exactly with no gaps.

When joining the stabilizer it is extremely important to use plenty of epoxy (30 minutes)

Carefully slide the stabilizer onto the fuselage, ensuring that they are accurately aligned, Firmly press they are together, allowing the excess epoxy run out. Using rubbing alcohol and paper towel, clean off the excess epoxy.
