Recommended building methods and glues:
Much of the construction of this model is done by laying
the parts on a flat table. It is strongly recommended that
you put wax paper down on the surface first so any excess
glue doesn’t soak through the foam and glue the parts to
the table. For all assembly, use Welders contact adhesive.
It is easiest to paint or apply graphics to the body before
it is assembled. Remember that you want to keep the
graphics as light as possible.
Wing spar:
With the wing upside down, find the spar slot. Bend the
wing a little to open the slot and blow out the loose foam.
Apply glue to the slot and squeeze the foam together so
both sides of the slot are covered. Cut the piece of carbon
flat to length and place it in the slot. Allow the glue to
fully cure before proceeding.
Control surface hinging:
Hinge the control surfaces by applying a light bead of
Welders glue near the hinge line on the non beveled side
of the foam. Smear this into the foam and allow to dry
about 2 min. The glue allows the hinge tape to stick to the
foam. Apply a strip of hinge tape to the control surface
and then position and stick the control surface in place.
Main Assembly:
Glue the nose to the front of the wing, the wing to the
horizontal fuselage and it to the horizontal tail. All the
bevels should be on the same side.
