10. Test fi t the top wing by sliding it onto the corresponding 

strut tabs. Press the wing down and slide it back until it stops. 
The LE of all the strut tabs must butt up against the back 
edge of the wing spars.

❏ 

11. Turn the model over and push the carbon strut tube 

up into the wing. The strut tube is properly positioned when 
the bottom of the tube sits no more than 1/8" [3.2mm] above 
fl ush from the plywood support plate. This is not a critical 
dimension. It is only a guideline so that you know that the 
strut tube will be fi rmly anchored in the wing cavity.

❏ 

12. When you are satisfi ed with the fi t of the wing, remove 

the upper wing and the interplane struts. Slide the carbon 
rod back into the fuselage until it sits fl ush with the top of the 
strut fairing. 

Please Note: You should familiarize yourself with the next 
few steps before you begin work. You will need to mix up 
a batch of 30-minute epoxy and steps 13 through 18 must 
be accomplished before the epoxy cures.

❏ 

13. Apply 30-minute epoxy to the interplane strut tabs. 

A thin fi lm should be applied to both sides of the top and 
bottom tabs. 

❏ 

14. Install the interplane struts onto the lower wings like 

you did before.

❏ 

15. On the upper wing, fi ll the strut tube cavity with 

30-minute epoxy. 

❏ 

16. Turn the airplane over and install the airplane onto the 

top wing.

❏ 

17. Slide the carbon strut tube up into the top wing, making 

sure that it sits no more than 1/8" [3.2mm] above fl ush from
