Glue the side board and main board of fuselage
.
Make sure the side board is vertical to the main board.
Hinge the rudder to the back of the fuselage, using the same
techniques
that you used to hinge the elevator to the
stabilizer.
Locate the two carbon rods. Pass
the rods through the fin and
stabilizer. Put
the rods
together in the fin and use foam-friendly
C/A to
glue the rods to the fin ONLY at this time.
Use a square to align the stabilizer with the fin.Once the fin is
perpendicular to the stabilizer, use
foam-friendly C/A to glue the
carbon rod to the
stabilizer. Square each side before gluing the rod
on
that particular side.
Installing the wing bracing is similar to installing
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 horizontal
stabilizer
While also being perpendicular to the vertical
fuselage.
