PREPARATIONS
❏
1. If you have not done so already, remove the major parts
of the kit from the box and inspect for damage. If any parts
are damaged or missing, contact Product Support at the
address or telephone number listed in the “Kit Inspection”
section on page 6.
❏
2. Carefully remove the tape and separate all the control
surfaces. Use a covering iron with a covering sock on medium
heat to tighten the covering if necessary. Apply pressure over
sheeted areas to thoroughly bond the covering to the wood.
ASSEMBLE THE WING PANELS
❏
1. Use a sharp hobby knife to trim open the hinge slots in
the wing panels and ailerons. Test fi t the pre-cut CA hinges
into the slots. If any are diffi cult to install, enlarge the slots
with your knife.
❏
2. Insert the CA hinges halfway into the slots in the wing
panels. Push small T-pins through the middle of the hinges to
keep them centered. Insert the ailerons onto the other ends
of the hinges. Align the outer tips of the ailerons fl ush with the
wing tips. Pull the ailerons away from the panels far enough
to confi rm that the hinges remained perpendicular with the
hinge line. If not, use a hobby knife or small screwdriver to
nudge them straight.
❏
3. When satisfi ed, carefully remove the T-pins from the
hinges. Adjust the ailerons so there is a small gap between
the LE of the aileron and the wing. The gap should be small,
just enough to see light through the gap or slip a piece of
paper through. Use thin CA glue to secure the ailerons by
applying 6 to 7 drops onto both sides of each hinge.
❏
4. Attach a 6" [152mm] servo extension to each aileron
servo and wrap the connection with transparent tape or heat-
shrink tubing.
