7. Remove the engine and mount from the
firewall. Using your rotary tool, make clearance
holes in the firewall for the engine mounting bolts
and washers.
❏
8. Re-attach the engine and mount to the
firewall.
❏
9. Make a mark on the engine mount for the throttle
pushrod. Also make marks for the fuel line holes.
❏
10. Remove the engine mount from the firewall
and the engine mount from the engine. Drill 1/4"
holes for the fuel lines and a 3/16" hole for the
throttle pushrod.
BUILD THE BULKHEADS
AND THE FUSELAGE SIDES
❏
1. Place the FUSELAGE PLAN on your workbench
and cover the bulkheads with Plan Protector.
Note:
For clarity, our photos show the fuse
components off of the plan, but you should build
over the plans.
❏
2. Using 1/4" x 1/2" x 30" and 1/4" x 1/4" x 30"
balsa sticks, build the bulkheads 4, 5 and 6.
Note:
Use the ends of two different 1/4" x 1/4" x 30"
sticks for the cross-trussing. Save the leftover long
sections of 1/4" x 1/4" stick for the fuse sides.
❏
3. Notch the outer framework of bulkhead 4 to
allow clearance for the side windows, using the
plans and the plastic windows as a guide.
❏
4. Glue the die-cut 1/8" ply cabin side to the die-
cut 1/8" ply forward fuse side. Repeat this step to
make the other fuse side.
❏
5. After covering the fuse plan with Plan
Protector, pin one fuse side in place on the plans.
This is now your right fuse side. Lightly write the
word “right” on the fuse side for easy reference.
