Roughen the surface of the 3×0.5 mm R3 carbon spar using No. 120 sandpaper and glue it with medium CA to the trailing edge of the fin R1.
Glue the T3 Lite Ply reinforcement plate into the horizontal stabilizer T1. Once the glue has cured sand it flush with the stabilizer.
Sand the entire surface of the horizontal stabilizer, elevator, fin and rudder with No. 120–150 sandpaper; round the outer edges. Bevel the leading edges of the rudder and elevator referring to the Det. D-D.
