Bracing

Cut the two carbon rods. One end

 

of the carbon rod is fixed into the 
hole of the fin with the foam

friendly C

A and the other end is 

fixed into the hole

 

of

 

the

 

fuselage

Make sure they are vertical

Position the carbon rods in the 
fuselage, gluing the rods to the 
vertical fuselage ONLY. This will 
allow for alignment of the fuselage 
in the next step.

It is similar to assemble the fuselage bracing, as you want the rods to be

 

glued to the carbon 

bracing that has been preinstalled

 

on the wing and fuselage. The rods are staggered and

 

fit into 

notches in the fuselage. Make sure the rods

 

are straight and are not flexing the wing. Use foam-

friendly C/A

 

to glue the rods in position. The wing

 

should be flat and parallel to the horizontal 

stabilizer,while also being perpendicular to the vertical fuselage. Use side cutters to trim away any
