9.
Mount the spoiler control horn as shown in the
image on the right. Note that the horn appears to
be mounted flush with the forward edge of the
spoiler with the extension facing aft. Also, the
opening for the horn needs to be wider than a
simple knife cut.
10.
Mount the servo and construct a wire pushrod to
connect it to the spoiler control horn.
11.
Test and check the operation of the spoiler, then
fasten the servo into place.
12.
To finish off the spoiler control horn, strip a small
piece of insulation from a piece of servo wire and
carefully glue it onto the end of the wire sticking through the horn.
13.
Locate the servo hatch, trial fit it, and set it aside. Cover it when you cover the wing. It
can be either taped into place, hinged and taped, or set with small screws.
Mid-Wing
The two mid/tip panels (Right and Left), are joined to the center section with 4 mm (~3/16”)
carbon fiber rods that embed in the
aluminum tubes installed in the center
section. Dihedral is built into the
center/mid joint and the mid/tip joint,
resulting in an easily transportable 3-piece
polyhedral wing.
Build both the left and right panels at
once; first completing one step on one
panel then repeating it for the other. Pay attention to build a left and one right panel, not two
lefts or rights. The construction order generally follows that which was used for the center
section.
Except where specified, CA works well for the panels. Use medium and thin as is your
preference. When joining plywood, some modelers prefer to use aliphatic (white) glue or epoxy.
Remove any excess char.
NOTE:
Steps will be listed for one side only.
When the step is completed, unless otherwise
stated, repeat the same step for the other side.

BUILDING OVER THE PLANS IS NOT STRICTLY
NECESSARY IF CARE IS TAKEN TO KEEP ALL PIECES
TIGHT TO EACH OTHER. THE PARTS ARE PREC1ISE
ENOUGH TO ALLOW THIS
