Wing Mounting
Final Checks
Take a few minutes to re-check each servo to make sure all screws are in place and snug.
If you use metal gear servos(a good idea), place one drop of thread locker on the screws
that hold the arms on the servos. Re-check all control horns, and all linkage for slop or
looseness. This would greatly increase the chance of flutter and could destroy your air-
plane. This is a 3D/Aerobatic airplane with large surfaces. Be careful to keep everything
tight and control your speed when flying.
Put on your prop and spinner. Put in all radio and batteries. Mount all switches & attach
all wiring. Assemble the airplane, we will now check the CG.
Once the cowl is ready to mount,
slide it onto the fuselage and attach
using 6-32 bolts and washers pro-
vided. Two screws go through the
firewall into the cowl ring – two go
through the ring into the firewall.
Blind-nuts are already installed to re-
ceive them.
Mark the root rib of each wing 6 ½”
from the leading edge. Transfer the
mark to the underside of the wing. We
will use this measurement in a bit to
check our Center of Gravity (CG).
Use the supplied nylon mounting bolts
to attach the wing onto the fuselage.
Make sure that the wing bolts are in
place and snug before each flight to
prevent the wing from coming off dur-
ing flight.
