Using the Manual

This manual is divided into sections to help make assembly easier to understand, and to provide breaks between each major section. In addition, check boxes have been placed next to each step to keep track of each step completed. Steps with a single box ( repeating, such as for a right or left wing panel, two servos, etc. Remember to take your time and follow the directions.

) are performed once, while steps with two boxes ( ) indicate that the step will require

Section 1: Joining the Wing Halves

Required Parts

• Left and right wing panels

• Wing joiner (large & small)

• Wing dowels (2)

Required Tools and Adhesives

• Ruler • Masking tape

• 30-minute epoxy • Epoxy brush

• Mixing stick • Rubbing alcohol

• Paper towels

 Step 1

Test the fit of the wing joiners into the right and left wing panels. The joiners should slide into the panels with little resistance. The larger joiner is located in the slot towards the leading edge of the wing. Lightly sand the joiners if they are a tight fit.

 Step 3

With the wing panels together, check for correct dihedral. Place the wing on a large flat surface with one panel resting flat on the surface. The center of the opposite wing tip should be 6 work surface. Once satisfied with the fit, separate the wing panels and remove the wing joiner.

Note: Read through the remaining steps of this section before mixing any epoxy.

/8" to 7" (175mm–178mm) from the

 Step 2

Without using any glue, test fit the wing panels together using the wing joiners. The panels must fit together without any gaps top or bottom. If any gaps do exist, use a sanding bar to lightly sand the root ribs of both panels until the panels fit together perfectly.

Hint: It is extremely important to use plenty of epoxy when joining the wing panels. It will also be helpful to use wax paper under the wing joint to avoid gluing the wing to your work surface.

 Step 4

Mix approximately 1 ounce of 30-minute epoxy. Using an epoxy brush, apply a generous amount of epoxy to the wing joiner cavities of one wing panel.

Section 1: Joining the Wing Halves

 Step 5

Completely coat one half of the each wing joiner with epoxy. Be sure to apply epoxy to the top and bottom of the joiner also. Insert the epoxy-coated side of the joiner into the wing joiner cavity up to the mark on the joiner. If you have used enough epoxy, it will ooze out of the cavity as the joiner is installed. Remove any excess epoxy using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol.

 Step 6

Apply a generous amount of epoxy to the joiner cavity of the opposite wing panel.

 Step 7

Apply epoxy to the exposed portion of the wing joiner.

 Step 9

Carefully slide the wing panels together. Apply enough pressure to firmly seat the two wing panels together, causing any excess epoxy to ooze out from between the panels. Use rubbing alcohol and a paper towel to remove the excess epoxy. Check to make sure there are no visible gaps between the panels.

 Step 10

Use masking tape to securely hold the wing panels together. Place the wing assembly back onto the work surface (covered with wax paper) and check the dihedral angle. Allow the epoxy to fully cure before continuing to the next section.

 Step 8

Apply epoxy to root wing rib of both panels.

Section 2: Installing the Horizontal Stabilizer

Required Parts

• Assembled wing • Fuselage

• Stabilizer

• 1/4-20 x 2" nylon bolts (2)

Required Tools and Adhesives

• Screwdriver (slotted) • Hobby knife

• Felt-tipped pen • Drill

• Drill bit: 1/4" (6mm) • Square

 Step 1

Place the wing onto the fuselage and check the fit. Make any adjustments necessary to the wing bolt holes and attach the wing using the two 1/4-20 x 2" nylon bolts.

 Step 3

Measure from the trailing edge of the stabilizer 1 (30mm). Use a felt-tipped pen to mark this location.

/16"

 Step 4

Drill a hole at the location marked in the previous step using a 1/4" (6mm) drill bit. It is highly suggested to use a drill press to make sure the hole is perpendicular to the stabilizer.

 Step 2

Measure and mark a centerline on the stabilizer.

Section 2: Installing the Horizontal Stabilizer

 Step 5

Slide the stab into the fuselage. Center the stab in the opening by measuring the distance from the fuselage to each tip. The stab is aligned when both measurements are identical.

 Step 6

 Step 7

Check to make sure the wing and stabilizer are parallel. If they are not, lightly sand the opening in the fuselage for the stab until the stab is parallel to the wing.

 Step 8

Use a felt-tipped pen to trace the outline of the fuselage on the stab.

Check the distance from each stab tip to each wing tip. These measurements must be equal for the stab to be aligned.

Section 2: Installing the Horizontal Stabilizer

 Step 9

Remove the stab and use a hobby knife with a brand new blade to remove the covering 1/16" (1.5mm) inside the lines just drawn. Use rubbing alcohol and a paper towel to remove the lines once they are no longer needed.

 Step 10

Mix 1/2 ounce (15ml) of 30-minute epoxy. Apply epoxy to the top and bottom of the exposed wood of the stabilizer. Apply epoxy to the corresponding surfaces of the slot in the fuselage for the stabilizer. Slide the stabilizer into the slot in the fuselage. Double-check the alignment to verify it’s correct. Remove any excess epoxy using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol.

Note: Use care not to cut into the underlying wood and weaken the structure. Doing so could cause the stab to fail in flight, resulting in the loss of your airplane.

Section 3: Installing the Vertical Stabilizer

Required Parts

• Fuselage assembly • Fin

• Rudder control rod

Required Tools and Adhesives

• 30-minute epoxy • Square

• Drill • Drill bit: 1/4" (6mm)

 Step 1

Locate the rudder control rod. Insert the threaded end of the control rod through the hole drilled in the stabilizer. It may be necessary to slightly enlarge the hole in the stabilizer and fuselage slightly to make the installation easier.

 Step 3

Remove the fin and use a hobby knife with a brand new blade to remove the covering 1/16" (1.5mm) below the lines just drawn. Use rubbing alcohol and a paper towel to remove the lines once they are no longer needed.

 Step 2

Test fit the fin to the fuselage. Slide the fin as far forward in the slot as possible to provide clearance for the rudder control rod. Trace the outline of the fuselage onto the fin using a felt-tipped pen.

Note: Use care not to cut into the underlying wood and weaken the structure. Doing so could cause the fin to fail in flight, resulting in the loss of your airplane.

Section 3: Installing the Vertical Stabilizer

 Step 4

Check the alignment of the fin to the stabilizer using a square. The fin must be 90 degrees to the stabilizer when properly aligned. If not, carefully sand the bottom of the fin to provide the clearance to align the fin.

 Step 5

Trace the outline of the fin extension onto the fuselage using a felt-tipped pen.

 Step 6

Remove the covering 1/16" (1.5mm) inside the lines drawn on the fuselage using a sharp hobby knife.

 Step 7

Mix 1/2 (15ml) ounce of 30-minute epoxy. Apply the epoxy to both the exposed wood on the fin and the slot in the fuselage. Also apply epoxy to the exposed wood on the top of the fuselage where the fin extension will be glued. Use care not to get epoxy on the rudder control rod. Insert the fin and use tape to hold the fin in position until the epoxy fully cures.

Note: Check the alignment of the fin periodically to make sure it isn’t moving while the epoxy cures.

Section 4: Installing the Ailerons

Required Parts

• Wing • Aileron (left and right)

• CA hinges (6)

Required Tools and Adhesives

• Thin CA • T-pins

  Step 1

Locate six of the CA hinges. Place a T-pin in the center of three of the hinges.

  Step 3

Slide the aileron and wing together. The gap between the leading edge of the aileron and wing should be a maximum of approximately 1/64" (.5mm). Check to make sure the gap at both ends of the aileron are equal and it can move without rubbing on the wing.

Note: Do not use CA accelerator during the hinging process. The CA must be allowed to soak into the hinge to provide the best bond. Using accelerator will not provide enough time for this process.

  Step 2

Place the hinges in the precut slots in the aileron. The T-pin will rest against the leading edge of the aileron when installed correctly.

Section 4: Installing the Ailerons

  Step 4

Remove the T-pins and move the aileron to provide the best access to the hinge. Apply thin CA to each hinge. Make sure the hinge is fully saturated with CA. Use a paper towel and CA remover/debonder to clean up any excess CA from the wing and/or aileron.

  Step 5

Firmly grasp the wing and aileron and gently pull on the aileron to ensure the hinges are secure and cannot be pulled apart. Use caution when gripping the wing and aileron to avoid crushing the structure.

  Step 6

Work the aileron up and down several times to work in the hinges and check for proper movement.

 Step 7

Repeat Steps 1 through 6 for the remaining aileron.

Section 5: Installing the Elevators

Required Parts

• Fuselage assembly

• Elevator joiner wire • CA hinge (6)

• Elevator (left and right)

Required Tools and Adhesives

• Thin CA • T-pins

• 30-minute epoxy • Sandpaper (medium)

 Step 1

Locate the elevator joiner wire. Use medium sandpaper to roughen the portion of the wire that will be inserted in the elevators.

 Step 4

Place the hinges into the elevator halves.

 Step 5

Slide the elevator and stab together. The horn on the elevator joiner wire will face towards the bottom of the fuselage.

 Step 2

Insert the joiner into each of the elevator halves as shown.

 Step 3

Locate six of the CA hinges. Place a T-pin in the center of the hinges.
