Main Plane Supports

1. There are two large supports intended to 

aid the orientation of the main wings, i.e.
to stop them rotating about their axis.

2. Glue the curved support to the base.

3. Glue the vertical into place.

4. For the diagonal support piece the longer

strip of neoprene needs to be cut in half 
(lengthways) and then applied to the 
support.  Using a sharp knife and the 
support as a guide remove the excess 
neoprene.  Then glue the support to the 
vertical.

Wing Setting Guides

1. The wing jig comes with five pairs of 

supports to set the angle of the wings or 
stabilisers.  The pair to use will depend 
upon the geometry of the aircraft.
Each support consists of a base, curved 
support and graduated vertical support.
It should be noted that there are three 
sizes of curved support.  Match the 
curved piece to the size of the  graduated
support ensuring that the curved piece 
does not rise above the graduated one.
