Wing reinforcements – 3 Long, 1 Short (Figure I)
!
Putting the pieces together
1.
Underside of the Wing Root Side: Using the short wing reinforcement piece, butt it
up against the trailing edge with the length of it facing toward the balsa servo mount
reinforcement, and then glue it into place. See image below.
Before you glue any of the wing reinforcements in place, make sure
they’re aligned with the trailing edge, and that they aren’t sticking out
at any weird angles.
2.
Topside of the Wing Root Side: Using one of the long wing reinforcement pieces,
butt it up against the trailing edge, making sure that the “fingers” are meshed
together with the short wing reinforcement piece you glued in Step 1.
3.
Glue the long wing reinforcement into place.
4.
Underside of the Wing Tip Side: Using one of the long wing reinforcement pieces,
butt it up against the trailing edge and glue it into place.
5.
Topside of the Wing Tip Side: Using the last of the long wing reinforcement pieces,
butt it up against the trailing edge, making sure that the “fingers” are meshed with
together with the wing reinforcement you glued in Step 4.
