Step 1: Mounting the Wing
❑
Using a modeling knife, cut away and remove the
covering material from over the top and bottom of the two
predrilled holes in the trailing edge of the wing. The holes are
located 3/4" in front of the trailing edge and 1-1/4" out from
the centerline.
❑
Align the predrilled holes in the wing with the preinstalled
blind nuts in the wing mounting block inside the fuselage.
Secure the wing into place using two 5mm x 50mm machine
screws and two 5mm flat washers.
☞
Don't overtighten the screws. You don't want to crush
the wing.
Step 2: Aligning & Installing the Horizontal Stabilizer
❑
Remove the elevator halves and hinges from the horizontal stabilizer and set them aside for now.
IMPORTANT
The gap between the trailing edge of the wing and the back of the wing saddle is normal. This area will be
covered by the center-flap when it's hinged later.
❑
With the fuselage upside down, place the wing into the wing saddle and push the trailing edge down into place.
