2. Cut the covering away from the slot.

3. Insert the hinges and attach the ailerons to the wing,

the elevator to the stab, and the rudder to the fin. Glue the
hinges by applying 6 drops of thin CA to the center of the
hinge, on both sides.

1. Add a 1/16" thick x 5/16" wide strip of wing seating

foam tape to the wing saddle area on the fuselage (where
the wing contacts the fuselage). Round the ends of the 1/4"

Wing Dowels,

then install them in the fuselage. No glue is

required to secure the dowels but you should fuelproof the
dowels with a thin coat of epoxy.

2. Roughen the underside of the wing shield with 150-grit

sandpaper so glue will adhere, then glue it to the wing with
30-minute epoxy. 

Tip: 

“Clamp” the wing shield to the wing by mounting the

wing on the fuselage with #64 rubber bands with the wing
shield in position. 

3. Reinstall the aileron control horns and hook up 

the linkages.

4. Mount the stab and rudder to the fuselage channel as

you did during construction. Use thread lock or CA on all
the nuts. Install the control horns and connect the pushrods.

5. Mount a 2-1/4" spinner (optional) and a propeller of

the correct size to the engine.

6. Mount the switch. You can cut a slot and drill two

holes just about anywhere and mount it directly to the
fuselage, or you can use foam mounting tape to secure the
switch inside the fuselage at the rear where it is accessible
.

This procedure 

must not 

be omitted. A model that is

improperly balanced 

will be 

uncontrollable, 

resulting in a

crash and possible damage to persons or property.

Note: 

The C.G. must be determined with the fuel tank empty.

1. Apply two pieces of 1/8" wide tape or use a felt-tip

pen to mark the 

Center of Gravity

(C.G.) location on the

bottom of the wing, near the fuse, 3-5/8" back from the
leading edge.

2.  Mount the wing to the fuselage with a couple of #64

rubber bands. With your battery pack handy, lift the model
at the C.G. location on each side of the wing. Position the
battery pack on the wing until the model is level or slightly
nose down. This is the position where you must mount the
battery pack inside the fuselage. Try to position the battery
pack so no ballast will be required to correct the C.G.

Balance The Model 

(Check The Center Of Gravity)

Reassemble The Model

ASSEMBLE, THEN APPLY 6 DROPS

OF THIN CA TO CENTER

OF HINGE, ON BOTH SIDES

AWAY FROM THE SLOT

CUT THE COVERING
