shown with 4-40 x 3/8" [9.5mm] machine screws, #4 flat
washers and 4-40 nylon lock nuts. When assembling the
cabanes apply a couple of drops of Threadlocker to the
screws. Do not fully tighten the screws; just make them snug
for now.

3. Insert the cabane for the left side of the fuselage into
the slots on the top, left side of the fuselage. Be sure the
cabane slides into the slots located inside of the fuselage.

4. Located inside the fuselage are 4-40 blind nuts. Align the
holes in the cabanes with the blind nuts. Mount the cabanes to
the fuselage with 4-40 x 1/2" [13mm] socket-head cap screws
and #4 lock washers. Apply a couple of drops of Threadlocker
onto the screws. Install the screws through the holes you cut
the covering from on the sides of the fuselage. Do this for all
four of the cabane legs. Tighten all of the screws for the
cabane assembly and the mounting screws.
