7. Use medium CA to glue the rudder to the stab. Use a
small builder’s square to make certain the fin is perpendicular
to the stabilizer.
❏
1. Identify the molded plastic mounting parts and lay
them out on your workbench as shown in the photo. The
front of all the parts is facing upward.
❏
2. Note that the front of the boom is the end with the wood
plug. Slip the fuselage parts onto the boom in the order that
they are laid out in the photo. Arrange the parts so the front
battery holder mount is 3-1/2" [90mm] from the front of the
boom (as shown in the photo at step 5) and the front wing
mount is approximately 7" [180mm] from the front of the
boom. The rear wing mount should be approximately 19"
[480mm] from the front of the boom. The exact location of the
wing mounts will be determined later when balancing the
model and the tail wire mount will be positioned when the
pushrod wires are installed.

3. Use medium CA to glue the fuselage boom to the
stabilizer and fin.
❏
4. Fit the main landing gear wire onto the front of the
battery holder. Then, mount the battery holder to the
battery holder mounts previously installed on the fuselage.
❏
5. Position the battery holder and battery holder mounts
so the front battery holder is 3-1/2" [90mm] from the front of
the fuselage boom. Make sure the battery holder and battery
holder mounts are vertical. Then, use a few drops of thin CA
to permanently glue the mounts to the fuselage boom.
