Glue the tail wheel bracket to the rear of the fuselage. I
tack it in place with Foam-Tac and then go around the
outside edge with hot glue. The plastic tube glues to
the rudder and allows the metal rod to move in and out
as the rudder goes side to side.
Mount the motor to the firewall feed the motor wires
through a cooling hole and hook up the speed control
(ESC). This is a good time to test the motor direction.
DO
NOT
do this with a prop attached.
If the motor spins the wrong direction, swap any two of
the three motor wires and this will reverse the motor.
Glue the firewall into the slots in the fuselage sides.
Glue the foam doubler onto the forward lower fuselage
so the slots line up. Glue together the remaining foam
parts that make up the battery tray and glue them to the
doubler. Smear Foam-Tac on the top surface of the
battery tray and allow it to fully dry. Stick a piece of
velcro to the top of the tray. The glue on the surface
will help the velcro stick better.
Glue the forward lower fuselage in place.
