Step 1: Installing the Nose Cone
❑
Using a pair of scissors, cut out the nose cone along its base, making sure to completely remove the molded radius.
❑
Using 220 grit sandpaper with a sanding block, sand the back of the nose cone smooth and straight.
❑
Using a thin layer of 5 minute epoxy, glue the nose cone
onto the fuselage. Remove any excess epoxy using a paper
towel and rubbing alcohol, and hold the nose cone in place
until the epoxy sets up.
IMPORTANT
Remember to roughen the gluing surfaces
with 220 grit sandpaper before gluing the nose cone into place.
❑
Using a pair of scissors, carefully cut out the clear canopy along the molded scribe lines.
IMPORTANT
Be careful not to cut off the mounting tabs on the front and sides of the canopy!
❑
Using 220 grit sandpaper with a sanding block, sand the edges of the canopy smooth and straight.
Step 2: Installing the Canopy
❑
Set the canopy into the molded recess in the fuselage
and mark the locations of the three mounting tabs onto the
fuselage using a pencil.
❑
Remove the canopy and use a sharp modeling knife to
cut thin slots through the fuselage for the tabs to slide into.
IMPORTANT
Cut the slots on the inside edge of the molded
recess and no larger than the size of the mounting tabs.
