moment with your covering iron and go over all of the seams with
a medium heat setting, paying special attention to the ends of thin
trim stripes. At this point clean the 2 elevator/stab assemblies with
Windex and a soft cloth and put them away in their protective bag.
Wing Assembly
13.
The assembly process for the wing is almost identical to that of the
stab/elevator. For this reason we will not go into quite as much
detail as in the previous procedure. Remove the aileron from the
wing panel. Locate the 2 slots for the control horns and remove
the covering from the slots with a sharp #11 blade.
Follow the
same
procedure as outlined previously to install the control
horns into the control surface and hinge the wing.
You may
need to trim 1/16” from the front of the composite base plate to
prevent overhanging the bevel. Repeat this procedure for the other
wing.
14.
Locate the aileron servo mount and remove the covering from this
area. Use a sealing iron to seal the edges of the covering to the
sides of the servo opening. Take a few minutes to apply some CA
to the joints of the servo rails and the ribs.
15.
Attach a 12” servo extension to your servo and secure with thread
or heat shrink tubing. Use the manufacturer supplied mounting
hardware and install the servo with the output shaft toward the
leading edge of the wing. Electronically center your servo. We
will fabricate the linkage much in the same way as the elevator
