Final Assembly (continued)
Rigging Wires
Attach a rigging spring to each eyelet on the
top of the cabane strut, (image 35). Attach a
rigging spring to each of the eyelets positioned
on the main gear, (image 36).
Join the springs with two of the 470mm
rigging wires. Repeat the process for the other
side of the model.
Attach a rigging spring to each eyelet on the
bottom of the cabane strut, (image 37).
Attach a rigging spring to each eyelet on the
rear fuselage wing support, (image 38).
Join the springs with two of the 410mm
rigging wires. Repeat the process for the
other side of the model.
Attach rigging springs to each of the eyelets
positioned on the vertical fin and tail-wheel
bracket. Connect the springs using 175mm
length rigging wires above the horizontal
stabiliser and 135mm length rigging wires
below it, (image 39).
Carefully trim the clear canopy to the
moulded line, (image 40). If you wish to fit a
pilot figure to your model do so now. Using
the supplied adhesive attach the clear
canopy to the foam fuselage deck, (image
41). Use the adhesive sparingly and place to
one side to dry thoroughly before attempting
to fit to the model.

Note:
We recommend that the open ends of
the springs are “crimped” closed, to avoid the
possibility of one becoming dislodged in-flight.
