Step 1: Locate the pivoting tail boom and tail mounting bracket. Locate the fastener bag labeled
“Tail Assembly Fastener Set”. Slide the tail mounting bracket into the slot in the back of the
pivoting tail boom. Next, locate the three 1.5 inch long bolts and insert these three bolts
through the three holes in the pivoting tail boom and tail mounting bracket. Now, put one flat
washer on each of these bolts, followed by a lock washer, followed by a nut. Tighten until the
slot on the pivoting tail boom very firmly grips the tail mounting bracket. See Step 1 of Figure 4.
Step 2: Use the remaining fasteners in the “Tail Assembly Fasteners” bag to secure the
directional tail to the tail mounting bracket. Slide the bolts through their respective holes and
then attach the flat washer, followed by the nut. See Step 2 of Figure 4.

you have slid the tail assembly completely onto the pivot bar by pushing firmly down on the tail
assembly.
