The new slot should
be widened enough to
allow the 6mm eleva-
tor to slide in without
breaking the Depron.
Repeat this for the
other side. Make sure
you cut from the top
side. The side oppo-
site the fuselage
doubler.
Glue the center piece
as shown. Make sure
it is laying completely
flat onto the edge of
the fuselage doubler.
Make sure you do not
cover up the wing
slots.
Glue the remaining
fuselage half to the
assembly. Stand on
end as shown to
ensure it is lined up
properly before
gluing.
Your fuselage assem-
bly should be straight
with no warps or
bends or twists.
Take two of the wood
sticks and glue them
to the underside of
the fuselage as
shown. Sand a taper
to the tail end pieces
to make it fit.
Make sure both sticks
of wood are pressed
securely into the
corner for the full
length of the fuse
while gluing.
If you find that your
wings are curled then
you must straighten
them out using ruler
or hard flat tool.
Press with a sweep-
ing action all the way
across the wing. Be
sure to hold the wing
firmly on both sides of
the spar line so that
you do not to break
the Depron. Pick up
the wing to see if it
still has a warp. If you
pressed too hard you
might find that the
warp has changed
directions. If this is the
case flip over the wing
and lightly sweep the
wing again to
straighten it out. After
a few swipes you
should find it easy
enough to make your
wing straight and true.
Try to make it as flat
as possible.
Although in this photo
this spar is wood,
your kit will include a
Carbon fiber spar.
Glue the wing halves
as shown and glue in
the wing spar as
shown.
