the level board on it.
..... Before mixing up the flox, recheck the fuselage and main wing level
lines and blocks. It is very critical to your Q2's excellent flying
qualities to have the proper incidences angles.
..... Check the skew of the main wing by measuring the distance from each
wing tip to the base of the vertical fin. The two measurements should be
the same. If not, some shifting within the confines of the FS94/Seatback
bulkhead fit should be accomplished to make the main wing as skew free
as possible.
..... Liberal quantities of flox should be placed wherever the main wing
and fuselage will meet upon assembly. Verify good squeeze out of the
flox upon assembly. Recheck all level lines and alignment. Permit the
flox to cure prior to attaching the BID tapes shown. Two BID tapes are
used everywhere, top and bottom)with a minimum width of 3 inches.
..... Finally, the top section of the fuselage shell that was removed to
enable the mounting of the main wing should be trimmed to fit, and
bonded in place with liberal quantities of flox. Then BID tapes are
used, as shown, on the outside of the fuselage shell to attach the main
wing cover to the main wing and fuselage.
..... Also, any material removed to allow the aileron mechanism to clear
should be replaced. Remember, this assembly is critical and should be
accomplished with great care. Tie all major structure together with BID
tapes and flox.
