Static Wicks
Static wicks can be added to enhance the scale appearance of your F-16. Use the supplied
20” Black plastic coated cable. The same procedure can be used to create static wicks for the
stabilizers, wings, and rudder.
Open the pre-drilled holes using a 0.070”
drill. Use a pin vice to control the drill bit.
1/4”-3/8” of insertion is required.
Insert the black plastic coated cable until
it bottoms.
Measure .7” from the edge of the control
surface. Mark the cable at this location.
