Sub-Assemblies Cont.
Landing Gear Struts Cont.
54.
Remove the landing gear strut assembly from the fuselage and set aside with the other sub-
assemblies.
Anti Tyranny Device
55.
Locate the ply “Machine Gun” M1. Fit the M2 balsa “Ammunition Drum” magazine to the
tab on the top of M1 and bond with medium CA. Remember, never put your finger on the
trigger until you are ready to destroy what is down range of the firearm!
Headrest
56.
Begin the headrest by laminating one HR2 on each side of HR1.
Note: HR1 is shallower
than the HR2’s.
Align the top edges of all three parts, leaving a groove along the bottom
where HR1 falls short. Bond with thin CA.
57.
Use a small piece of sandpaper or a sharp hobby knife to carve the bottom of the headrest
into a shallow arch, no deeper than the bottom of HR1.
58.
Bond HR3 to the
front
of the assembly, aligning the arch on the base with the arch on the
bottom of the headrest assembly.
59.
As viewed from the
top
, sand the sides of the headrest until they taper to a point in the
center
of HR1.
60.
Now, sand the
top
of the headrest to match the contour of HR3.
