Step 1: Aligning the Belly Pan
❑
Using a modeling knife, cut away and remove the covering material from over the precut wing-screw access holes in
the bottom of the belly pan.
❑
Mount the wing to the fuselage.
❑
Set the belly pan into place and push it down firmly. Align
both the front and back of the belly pan with the sides and
bottom of the fuselage and use several pieces of masking
tape to hold the belly pan firmly in place.
❑
With the belly pan held firmly in place, use a pencil to outline the sides of the belly pan onto the wing.
❑
Remove the belly pan. Using a modeling knife, carefully
cut away and remove a strip of covering from just inside each
outline you drew. Also, cut away and remove the covering
from the bottom edges of the belly pan.
Step 2: Installing the Belly Pan
❑
Mix a small quantity of 30 minute epoxy and apply a thin layer to only the gluing surfaces of the belly pan.
❑
Set the belly pan back into place and realign it. Use pieces of masking tape to hold it securely in place and remove any
excess epoxy using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol.
❑
After the epoxy has fully cured, remove the masking tape, but leave the wing in place for now.
