1. If you have not done so already, remove the major
parts of the kit from the box and inspect for damage. If any
parts are damaged or missing, contact Product Support at
the address or telephone number listed in the
“Kit
Inspection” section on page 6.

2. Carefully remove the tape and separate all the control
surfaces. Use a covering iron with a covering sock on
low/medium heat to tighten the covering if necessary. Apply
pressure over sheeted areas to thoroughly bond the covering
to the wood.
❏
1. Use a sharp hobby knife to trim open the hinge slots in
the wing panels and ailerons. Test fit the pre-cut CA hinges
into the slots. If any are difficult to install, enlarge the slots
with your knife.
❏
2. Insert the CA hinges halfway into the slots in the wing
panels. Push small T-pins through the middle of the hinges
to keep them centered. Insert the ailerons onto the other
ends of the hinges. Align the outer tips of the ailerons flush
with the wing tips. Pull the ailerons away from the panels far
enough to confirm that the hinges remained perpendicular
with the hinge line. If not, use a hobby knife or small
screwdriver to nudge them straight.
❏
3. When satisfied, carefully remove the T-pins from the
hinges. Use thin CA glue to secure the ailerons by applying
6 to 7 drops onto both sides of each hinge.
