WING ASSEMBLY
Remove the tape from the servo wire pull string at
the center of the wing. Work the string through the
exit hole in the wing bottom and secure.
Measure the dihedral brace, locate and mark its
center.
Trial fit the dihedral brace in its box in both wing
panels. The “V” shape of the brace points down to
produce positive dihedral. The brace should have
a snug fit, sand lightly if necessary.
The following steps must be done quickly before
the epoxy has time to set up. Read the procedure
and gather the materials before starting.
Mix a small amount of 30-minute epoxy. Spread
the epoxy in the dihedral box top, bottom, and
sides about 1 inch in on both wing panels. The
snug fit of the brace will push it down the box.
Apply epoxy to one half of the wing spar and slide
it into position. Spread the epoxy that oozes out
over the wing mating surface as well as the other
half of the wing spar. Slide the other wing panel in
place, wipe off the excess epoxy with a paper
towel moistened with alcohol.
Stretch masking tape across the joint in such a
way as to apply pressure to the joint.
DO NOT
DISTURB THE WING UNTILL THE EPOXY HAS
FULLEY CURED.
