Wings
Carefully locate the aileron
servo pocket. Shining a light
through opposite side of the
wing will help highlight the
pocket location. The pocket
is about 10” (255mm) from
the wing root.
Use a new hobby knife blade
to cut though the covering.
Cut from the corners of the
pocket towards the center of
the pocket so the covering can be folded in.
Gently snap off the servo wire installation string (if it’s
attached) and temporarily secure it out of the way. Do
not pull it out of the wing!
Use an iron to seal around the servo pocket. Fold the cut
covering under the wing sheeting and attach it to the
inside edge of the pocket.
Carefully locate the aileron control horn slots. About 4
15/16” (125mm) from the edge of the aileron.)
Use a covering iron to bond the covering in the area the
control horn will sit. Trim the covering away to expose
the slots. Be sure not to cut through to the top side
covering.
The hinges should already be glued into the ailerons.
Give each of them a little pull to ensure they are securely
attached. It’s better to find a loose hinge now rather
than during a flight.
The wings are already slotted for the hinges. Use a
covering iron to secure the covering along the edge of the
wings and ailerons. Look at the wing hinge slots closely.
Make sure the covering will not interfere when gluing the
hinges. Cut away any covering that covers the hinge slot.
