Hinge rudder to fin.
Hinge ailerons to wing (IMPORTANT! When hinging ailerons to wing,
be sure to glue strip aileron horn wires into ailerons, but DO NOT GLUE
ailerons to nylon tubing!).
Tug hard on each hinge to check bond.
FUEL SYSTEM
Install your fuel tank, hold it level by supporting the rear end with foam
rubber as shown on the plan.
OPTIONAL PRESSURE FEED
If your muffler has a fuel-line type fitting on it, you can use it to
“pressure feed” to the engine for smoother and more reliable running. In this
case, the vent line is connected to the muffler fitting.
Install wheels on axles as shown: wheel collar and set screw first,
wheel, then second wheel collar. If the axle hole in your wheels do not fit
the L.G. wire, enlarge holes with a 3/16” drill. Hold wheel loosely so it will
center itself while drilling, and use slow drill speeds if possible.
Refer to plan and bend up 1/4” of tail wheel wire. Glue
eyelet into rudder bottom to match bend. Plug wire into rud-
der eyelet., then glue and screw nylon bracket securely to
fuse. OPTIONAL: Instead of bending the wire into the rud-
der, glue scrap tubing to rudder bottom and insert straight tail
wire into it.
ENGINE DETAIL.
A formed engine detail is furnished for the
left side of the cowl only (the R/C engine will be on the right
side. Carefully remove scrap flashing from around the engine
by cutting along marked outline. Paint engine as desired (do no
use lacquer based paints on the engine). Exhaust pipes are sim-
ulated with5/16” dia. black automotive vacuum tube. Insert 14
gauge solid wire into tube (to hold shape). Assemble parts as
shown in sketch and glue in position to cowl (materials not
included).
