Carefully locate the aileron control horn slots. Use a
covering iron to bond the covering in the area the control
horn will sit. Trim the covering away to expose the slots.
Be sure not to cut through to the top side covering.
The hinges should already be glued into the ailerons.
Give each of them a little pull to ensure they are securely
attached. It’s better to find a loose hinge now rather
than during a flight.
The wings are already slotted for the hinges. Use a
covering iron to secure the covering along the edge of the
wings and ailerons. Look at the wing hinge slots closely.
Make sure the covering will not interfere when gluing the
hinges. Cut away any covering that covers the hinge slot.
Slip each of the aileron hinges into the wing. Align the
end of the aileron to the wing tip.
Push the aileron tight against the wing closing the gap
between the two of them. Move the aileron to its
maximum desired deflection. (About 15°) Notice how
the hinges may pull out slightly. Experiment with the
hinge position finding the best fit before gluing.
Apply a piece of tape next to each hinge. This will help
you locate the hinges when you begin gluing them.
