Preparation
Layout
the
2
plan
sheets
and
laser
cut
kit
parts.
Study
the
plans
and
identify
all
supplied
parts,
you
may
like
to
mark
the
part
numbers
beside
the
part
for
later
identification.
As
you
go,
prepare
your
‘stick
shopping
list’
of
stock
not
included.
This
list
will
include
but
is
not
limited
to,
such
as
wing
spars,
leading
edges,
1/8”
square
for
rear
fuse
section,
and
some
1/16”
and
1/32”
balsa
sheeting.
Plans
and
parts
laid
out.
During
construction,
plans
should
be
covered
with
some
sort
of
‘plan
protector’
such
as
commercially
available
types,
or
‘grease
proof
paper’
or
cling
wrap
or
even
the
plastic
bag
the
kit
came
in.
Glue
is
up
to
you,
some
builders
like
CA
glues
which
certainly
speeds
construction
in
general,
but
ensure
your
work
area
is
well
ventilated
as
many
people
have
adverse
reactions
to
the
poisonous
fumes.
Epoxy
glue
should
be
used
for
the
fuse
front
main
structure
for
strength
and
durability.
‘White’
wood
glue
is
a
good
alternative
to
CA,
it
takes
longer
waiting
for
it
to
set
but
gives
more
time
to
precisely
locate
parts,
avoids
‘stuck
fingers’
and
is
generally
a
more
stress
free
experience.
Tools
.
Not
much
more
than
a
sharp
knife
with
a
good
supply
of
replacement
blades
and
some
sandpaper
is
required.
Very
helpful,
especially
with
this
model
is
having
a
number
of
set
‐
squares,
straight
edges
and
rules
available
for
truing
up
parts
as
construction
proceeds.
When
removing
parts
from
the
supplied
sheets
use
care
and
a
very
sharp
blade
to
cut
the
small
bridges
holding
the
part
into
the
sheet
before
removing
it.
Simply
pressing
the
part
out
of
the
sheet
risks
tearing
or
breaking
it,
especially
with
some
of
the
finer
parts.
The
fuse,
wings,
tail
surfaces
and
undercarriage
sections
are
all
constructed
separately
and
brought
together
at
the
assembly
stage.
It
does
not
matter
in
which
order
these
sections
are
constructed
but
normal
advise
would
be
to
start
with
the
tail
planes
as
that
tends
to
be
easiest
and
leads
into
wing
then
fuse
construction.
This
would
be
good
advise
if
you
are
not
familiar
with
Aerodrome
RC
kits.
