58.
Ensure the nuts are securely tightened onto the bolts at the middle of each rear strut, then apply
thin CA adhesive to secure the nuts onto their bolts.
59.
Check that the angle of attack of the upper wing is at 0 degrees to the lower wing and to the
horizontal stabilizer. If necessary, slightly adjust the depth of the front and/or rear struts in their
openings. When you are comfortable with the alignment of the wing panels, apply epoxy or thin
CA adhesive at both ends of the struts to permanently secure them into their pockets.
60.
Attach ailerons on the bolts between the wing
panel’s rear struts as follows:
a
) Slide the opening at each aileron’s inner front
corner over the the inner-rear strut’s hinge bolt.
b
) Align the opening at the front of the notch in
in each aileron to the
hinge bolt in each
outer rear strut.
c
) Gently spread the
rear struts apart just
enough to slide the
opening in each
aileron over its hinge
bolts.
61.
Attach an EZ-Link connector to the
outer hole in the control arm of each
aileron servo as shown at the right.
62.
Test-fit an aileron pushrod between
the outer hole in each upper aileron
brace and each EZ-Link connector.
63.
Center your aileron servos with your
radio or a servo tester. (A Maxford
USA servo tester is pictured below.)
64.
Adjust the aileron pushrods in their EZ-Link connectors so both ailerons are set at 0 degrees
relative to the wings and to the horizontal stabilizer.
65.
Tighten the aileron pushrod-clamping bolt in each EZ-Link connector onto its pushrod. Once the
ailerons have been adjusted, apply thin CA or threadlock compound to secure the clamping bolts.
