Wing Assembly
NOTE: There are pictures of different planes in this manual, however, this plane’s
wings is assembled the same way.
1. It is much easier to install the CF horns before installing the wing. Locate the
CF aileron control horns, ball links, and associated bolts and nylon-insert lock nuts.
Use some fine sandpaper to roughen up the center areas of the control horn so that the
glue adheres better. Using a sharp hobby knife cut the covering away from the slots
in the rudder and trial fit the control horn.
2. Mix up some 30 minute epoxy and coat the inside of the slots and the center of
the control horn. Hint: a scrap piece of 1/16” ply, tooth pick, or old hobby blade
can be used to coat the inside of the aileron slots. Slide the control horns in place
and make sure they are centered perfectly by using a ruler to measure between the
pivot holes and the hinge line. Wipe any excess glue off with isopropyl alcohol and
paper towels. Install the ball links, bolts and nuts into the holes to help assure
alignment of both control horns while the glue cures. Set aside until cured.
3. The slots for the supplied hinges are pre cut. Locate the hinges and dry fit the
hinges and aileron into place and test the operation. The hinges should seat fully
into the slots so that the hinge line gap is minimal while still allowing full aileron
deflection.
4. Before gluing the hinges in you must first clean the hinges of any mold release
agent using isopropyl alcohol. also recommends scuffing up the plastic with light
sandpaper for maximum glue adhesion.
