When I got my Tomcat I did as I always do with all my planes I started by glueing all the body joints and weak links that where not glued by the factory with my "WELD-ON" liquid glue. In doing so the area aruond the horizontal Stabilizer round hole got glued so I never really got to see if the stabilizer rotated? They look like they could but I don't know. So my question is Do They?

Yes they do rotate up and down. At least mine do.

They do elevate and were designed to do so

I never touch mine anyway...not until I can find a way to get the whole thing in a launch configuration.

Mine doesn't move much, but it looks like it is designed to rotate.
