Using a couple of paper towels, wipe off the
excess motor spray and oil.
❑
10) Slowly turn on the motor. Position the throttle
lever to about 1/3 throttle and let the motor run. While
the motor is running, apply a light spray of motor spray
inside the motor openings once every minute, followed
by a small drop of Break-In Drops on each of the bush-
ings. Do this until the battery is fully discharged.
❑
11)
After the battery has discharged and the motor
has stopped, spray motor spray through the motor open-
ings until the fluid runs clear. Apply a couple of drops of
Break-In Drops to the bushings and wipe away all of the
excess using paper towels.

1)
Look carefully at the surface of each root rib on
both wing halves. Notice how the excess covering mate-
rial overlaps onto them. Using a modeling knife, carefully
trim and remove the excess covering from both of the root
ribs, leaving about 1/16" of material overlapping so it does
not pull away later. See photo # 3 below.

☛
Removing most of the covering from the two root ribs
will expose more of the wood. This will result in a stron-
ger joint when the wing halves are epoxied together later.
❑
2)
Using a straight edge ruler and a pen, locate and
mark the centerline of the plywood dihedral brace. Draw
one vertical line on each side of the brace, at this location.
See photo # 4 below.

3)
Test fit the plywood dihedral brace into the dihe-
dral brace box in each wing half. The brace should slide
into each wing half up to its centerline. If it does not,
remove the brace and use 220 grit sandpaper to lightly
sand the edges and tips of the brace. Repeat until you are
satisfied with the fit. See photo # 5 below.

☛
The dihedral brace is cut in the shape of a "V". The
"V" shape should face the top surface of the wing when
the brace is installed.
❑
4)
Test fit both of the wing halves together with the
dihedral brace temporarily installed (without using glue).
