Balsa USA Stingray with DLE-20 RC Plane Build N0 25: Attaching the tail section

Follow
RC Plane Tech

Welcome to my build series of the Balsa USA Stingray RC plane kit. The Stingray 120 is a great trainer and sport rc plane with an 83inch wingspan and powered by a DLE20 RC gas rc plane engine. I will be using a Futaba transmitter system with Futaba or Hitec servos and receiver. This plane is designed for .80 to .90 2stroke glow engines, .90 to 1.20 4stroke glow engines, and 15cc to 30cc gas engines. I will be using basic techniques of building rc plane balsa kits (or at least the techniques I have learned to build rc planes).

All of these videos will be placed on a playlist.

In this video I attach the horizontal stabilizer, fin and dorsal fin. This is a little tricky since the horizontal stabilizer and fin have to be aligned properly to the fuselage and wing. I use a combination of measurements, levels, and eye sighting to get the tail section pieces attached properly. I use Bob Smith Industries 30 minute epoxy and JB Weld 5 minute epoxy.

I have been building, flying, crashing, modifying, and repairing radio control planes (RC Planes) for many years and enjoy sharing what I do with the radio control plane community, so I started RC Plane Tech channel for fun. I am not an expert, there are many different techniques when building radio control planes. A good way to learn about flying and building rc planes is to see what others are doing, that's what I do and that's why I like to share what I do.
