Fuselage Continued
33.
Fit and bond two stringers F27 to the center two notches in formers F23 and F24, and the
center two slots at the rear of F1.
34.
Fit and bond two stringers F28 to the sets of notches and slots immediately outside of
stringers F27
35.
Lightly sand the completed fuselage, removing any excess glue, and gently rounding the
corners along the edge of F25 where it contacts F19 and the fuselage sides.
Lay the completed fuselage aside until required in the Final Assembly.
Wings
Wing parts are designated with a “W” followed by a numeric. Parts have been numbered so that the wing
assembly and required parts follows in numeric order from W1 to W6.
36.
Build the Right Wing first. Lay wing panel W1(R) on the work surface,
etched side up
. Fit
and bond the spar W2 to W1(R).
37.
Fit ribs W3, W4, and W5 to the slots in the trailing edge of the wing panel. The slots come
in different sizes and positions, matching the tab on the specific rib for that slot. W3 will fit
in the inner slot - nearest the wing root with the tabs on it. W4 will fit in the center slot, and
W5 will fit in the outer slot, near the wing tip. Refer to the detail sheet to ensure proper
placement of the ribs.
Do not force the fit!
if the rib doesn’t fit the slot, it’s in the wrong
place. Bond the ribs to the
trailing edge
of the wing only.
38.
Turn the wing panel over. Gently wrap the wing panel over the top of the ribs, engaging the
notches and slot along the leading edge to the ribs. Tack glue ribs W3 and W4 where they
fit into the notches, and F5 where it fits into the slot. Hold the wing flat on the work surface
and bond the spar to ribs W3 and W4. Lift the panel from the work surface, and final bond
the ribs to the underside of the panel, ensuring there are no gaps between the ribs and
W1(R).
39.
Repeat steps 36 through 38 to build the left wing panel. Begin with W1(L) on the table
etched side up
, and proceed as you did for the right wing panel. Take your time before
gluing, and ensure that you are building a mirror image of the right wing, and not two
identical right wings!
Lay the completed wing panels aside until required in the final assembly.
Tail Surfaces
40.
Fit ply part V1 to the vertical stabilizer V2, and bond with medium CA glue.
