2) Fuselage:
a) Lets start with the main
piece. It’s made up of 3
pieces. Now’s the time
to color in the windows.
Again, if you’re installing
landing gear, or want to
tuck the radio gear inside
the fuse, do it now. Don’t
attempt to line up the wing slots, they are deliberately offset. Line up
the outer edges instead. Glue the 3 layers together, contact cement is
preferred.
b) Motor Cutout:
i) This will vary greatly depending on what type of motor you’re
planning to use. But the two most basic types are geared motors
(brushless or not) and outrunners (always brushless).
ii) You may need to modify the mounting setup depending on your
setup, but templates for the most common mounts are included in
the appendix. Look everything over before cutting to ensure that
your motor will fit.
iii) Line up the motor mount template with the fuselage (A little
gluestick helps hold it in place while you’re working.) Cut the foam
along the marked line.
iv) For outrunner motors, you might also need to make a support for
the motor mount. If so, cut 4 small triangles from the scrap foam
and glue them in place alongside the motor cutout. Usually a circle
of plywood, or a couple of popsicle sticks makes a good mount.
Then mount your motor with a few tiny woodscrews.
v) The geared motors most often mount on a stick. 10mm square is
the usual size, but 3/8” will work just as well. The geared motor
template includes the outline for positioning just such a stick.
3) Wings:
a) Form the airfoil:
i) Make sure you end up with BOTH LEFT and RIGHT WINGS!!!
This is EXTREMELY important. The wing pieces are essentially
identical until you form the airfoil into them. So watch out, a plane
with two left wings doesn’t fly too well.
