NOTE : The hinge is constructed of a spe-
cial material that allows the C/A to wick
or penetrate and distribute throughout
the hinge, securely bonding it to the wood
structure of the wing panel and aileron.
5) Turn the wing panel over and deflect the
aileron in the opposite direction from the
opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each
hinge, making sure that the C/A penetrates
into both the aileron and wing panel.
6) Using C/A remover/debonder and a paper
towel, remove any excess C/A glue that may
have accumulated on the wing or in the ai-
leron hinge area.
7) Repeat this process with the other
wing panel, securely hinging the aileron
in place
.
8) After both ailerons are securely hinged,
firmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to
make sure the hinges are securely glued
and cannot be pulled out. Do this by care-
fully applying medium pressure, trying to
separate the aileron from the wing panel.
Use caution not to crush the wing struc-
ture.
Work the aileron up and down sev-
eral times to “work in” the hinges
and check for proper movement.
Note :
4) Deflect the aileron and completely sat-
urate each hinge with thin C/A glue. The
ailerons front surface should lightly con-
tact the wing during this procedure. Ide-
ally, when the hinges are glued in place,
a 1/64” gap or less will be maintained
throughout the lengh of the aileron to the
wing panel hinge line.
