Step 1: Main wing preparation
Glue the ailerons and aileron hinges in
place. To do so, use medium viscosity CA
glue to glue the hinges in the main wings
such that half of each hinge remains
exposed. Place a drop of CA on the tip of
each hinge and slide the ailerons in place.
Ensure that the aileron moves freely.
Repeat for both sides.
Remove the covering film over the servo
bay on the underside of the wing if not
already done so.
Step 2: Main wing servo and pushrod installation
Take a 9g servo, centre it using your radio
and attach a servo horn in the correct
position. Cut away the covering film from
the slot for the servo arm.
Attach the servo to the underside of the
servo bay covers either by gluing the servo
directly in place or by gluing small wooden
blocks in the appropriate locations with CA
glue and screwing the servo to these. Do
not forget to drill 1.5mm pilot holes into the
wooden blocks before screwing into them.
Attach 30cm servo extension leads to the
servo and route these through the main
wings to the exit provided. Attach control
horns to the ailerons on the underside of
the wing using small woodscrews as
shown to the right. Complete the pushrod
and linkage assembly and secure the
servo and cover to the main wing with a
woodscrew in each corner.
