linkage.  Aileron servo arm length should be 1.50”.  We use and 
recommend the SWB double lock aluminum arms.  As always, use 
blue Loctite on ALL bolts!

  Before beginning the next assembly process, take a few minutes 
with your sealing iron on a medium heat setting and go over all 
seams, paying special attention to thin trim stripes and the seam at 
the leading edge of the wing.  If there are wrinkles in the covering 
on the leading edge sheeting use a heat gun with a 100% cotton t-
shirt to remove them and prevent digging into the wood with an 
iron.  Use caution and avoid excessive heat as you may cause the 
Ultracote to shrink too much and lift at the seams.  Also take the 
time to seal the hinge gaps with Ultracote or Blenderm tape.  Clean 
the wings with Windex and put them away in their protective bag.
