Assemble the 1/8” balsa rear longerons as shown below. The parts fit best when you assemble
the top/bottom parts with one of the lasered sides up and the other down. Lay them on your
table as shown below so you make a LEFT and RIGHT side. Press the assembled 1/8” rear fuse
parts onto the 1/16” balsa rear parts as shown below. MAKE SURE you assemble them as
shown below, and not upside down! Also make sure that the parts are flush on one side.
Secure these parts with thin CA.

Assemble the rear parts to the front 1/8” fuselage parts, as shown below. Place only a couple

Press the 3/32” balsa formers into the 1/16” balsa bottom as shown below. The “lasered” side
of the bottom goes “up” and the “lasered” sides of the formers face aft. MAKE Sure this is
right. Lightly tack the parts together with a couple drops of thin CA, AFTER you make sure
they are fully pressed into place.
