Before you fix the contacts 
to the fuselage with a runny 
super glue, make a 

test, if 

everything is contacted 
well

 

 

 

5.4  Connection of rudder 

 

Fix the 

lever in the control surface

 and connect it to the 

steel 

pushrod

.  

 
Make a 

mark for the zero position of the elevator

 on the 

rudder.

 

    

5.5  Canopy 

 

We use a very simple solution to mount the canopy. 
Just 

glue the carbon stick

 into the canopy. Note that the gluing 

spot is only 

in the middle

 of stick and canopy, so you can thread 

the stick into the fuselage while the canopy remains on the outer 
side. 

 

5.6  Hook for winchstart 
 

 

There is a 

plywood part in the skin of  the fuselage

, so that 

you can drill holes into the fuselage to position your hook.  
We recommend  to start with a position of about 

2cm in front of 

the CG
