Install the rudder onto the tail. The gap will be around 0.3mm.
Install the tail gear into the fuselage and secure it in place with
2x8mm tapping screws.
Drop some instant glue to secure the rudder hinges into the ver-
tical and fuselage.
Place the fuselage, vertical and horizontal on the working tab-
le. Please refer to the drawing A and try to fit the vertical and
horizontal into the fuselage. Place the main wing onto the fu-
selage for temporary when measure the distance between the
main wing and tail wing. Make sure the distance must match the
drawing A. This is very important before securing the tail wing
into the fuselage.
Remove the vertical. Mix generous AB glue, spread on the balsa
wood (the area without covering) of the horizontal and secure
the horizontal onto the tail of the fuselage. Use pins to hold the
fuselage in place for temporary until the glue dried enough.
Use hobby knife to cut out the 0.35mm hole for installing rudder
hinge on the bottom of fuselage.
COVERING AND FINISHING THE MODEL
Remove the tail wing. Use hobby knife to remove the covering
inside the marking area on the tail wing.
Place the control horn set on the working table, including top
and bottom plastic mounts, M2 x 25mm screw, 2mm nut and one
plastic horn. Insert the screw through the bottom plastic mount,
elevator and top plastic mount and secure the screw with 2mm
nut. Screw the horn onto the top the screw until even to the
screw.
Place the control horn set on the working table and install onto
the rudder.
Remove the vertical. Use hobby knife to remove the covering
inside the marking
area carefully. Don‘t cut into the wood.
Fit the vertical on the horizontal again. Use a triangle rule as a
guide for making sure the angle is 90 degree and secures the
vertical in place with instant glue.
Try to fit the tail wing into the fuselage. The vertical must be fitted
into the slot on the tail of the fuselage. When satisfy the location,
use pen to mark the outline of fuselage on the horizontal.
