Required Parts
• Wing panels
• Fuselage
• Wing tube
• 1/4-20 x 2" nylon bolts (2)
Required Tools and Adhesives
• Flat screwdriver w/short handle
• Thick CA
• Sandpaper (medium)
Step 1
Be sure the anti-rotation pins are secure in the
wing halves before installing the wings. If they are
not, remove the pin and lightly san the pins using
medium grit sandpaper. Apply a small amount of
thick CA into the tube socket and reinstall the
pin.Locate the wing tube and carefully slide it into
one wing panel. Slide the wing (with tube) into
the wing tube opening in the fuselage. Make sure
the wing panel anti-rotation pins slide into the
holes provided in the fuselage.
Note
: It may be necessary to slightly enlarge
the holes in the fuselage for the anti-rotation
pins using a small round file.
Step 2
Carefully slide the remaining wing panel onto the
wing tube that projects from the fuselage. The fit
may be tight; use caution when inserting the wing
panels onto the wing tube and fuselage.
Step 3
Secure the wing panels using the 1/4-20 x 2"
nylon wing bolts.
