Check which way round the servo should go by sighting the servo control rod hole on
Fuselage 4.
-
Fuselage 4, 5
include a 3mm carbon rod, which also goes into
fuselage 3.
Dry fit these pieces
together to check the length of the rod then glue them together. It is also a good idea to
connect the servo wire to the rudder servo at the same time, running it through to the
tail, you can cut the rudder end to size later.
-
Glue
Fin 1
and
Fin 2
to the tail. Put the rudder section in place and run the rudder hinge
up into the Fin. You can then glue on the
Rudder Bottom
part. The tail wheel arm is
attached with a 2mm pice of wire you could you coat hanger. You may need to drill out
the holes to fit. Depending on the expansion of your filament you may need to sand down
the tail wheel arm to ensure it moves OK. Add a small rubber band for suspension.
-
To complete the fuselage attach your motor, its a good idea to feed your ESC’c wire
through the front of the fuselage to connect it up. Once you’re happy with the motor
mounting you can glue on the cowling.
-
The wings are assembled around carbon tubes. Due to blobs and stringing you may need
to use an appropriately sized drill bit to clean out the holes. I have found it is a good idea
to do this with he drill bit in hand rather than attached to a drill.
-
In fuselage 1 and 3 you need to insert the carbon tubes to act as sleeves for the spars. It is
a 10mm OD (outside diameter), 8mm ID (inside diameter) tube. Insert the full length
tube first and mark out where you need to cut it to be flush with the fuselage. The canard
wings can remain removable by drilling a small hole through the carbon sleeve and wing
spar at the appropriate points on the bottom of the fuselage with the wing in place. Small
screw then hold the canard in position during flight. The aft wing is currently not
removable and should be glued.
-
Both wings utilise a 3mm carbon tube for the control surface hinge. They also stop the
wing from turning by reaching into the fuselage. Due to the angles the aft wing rear spar
can only reach 5mm-10mm or so into the fuselage and needs a bit of help to get it in
place.
