WF3 and WB3 in place 

before moving on to 

the second.

For the third R5, the 

WB2 is used as the front 

sheer web. It’s etched 

circle should point 

towards the root of the 

wing.

Step 12 - Wing Assembly (attach R4)

Locate one R4 from BP4, and 

one WB3 web from BP9.

Attach the R4 and WB3 

pieces in place as shown.

Step 13 - Wing Assembly (attach DH2 & DH3)

Locate one DH2 from LP4 and one DH3 from LP9.

Notice that these pieces have a small 

circle etched in the upper corner. This 

notes the beveled side for the wing 

panel’s dihedral and should be pointed 

towards the root rib (R2).

Place DH3 in front of the spar and DH2 

aft of the spar, with their tabs inserted 

fully into the slots in R4.

When satisfied with the position, glue these in place.

Step 14 - Wing Assembly (attach R3B)

Locate one R3B rib from BP4. Position 

it as shown, making sure the tab in the 

front of the rib is fully inserted into the 

slot in DH2. 

When satisfied with the position, glue 

in place.

Step 15 - Wing Assembly (attach R2)

Locate one R2 rib from BP5 

and one WB1 from BP9.

WB1 has an etched circle as 

well, showing the side that 

should glue to R2.

Position in place as shown 

and note that R2 will have a 

slight angle when properly 

aligned - this is normal. When satisfied with the position, glue 

these pieces in place.

Step 16 - Wing Assembly (attach R3A)

Locate one R3A from BP1. This 

glues to DH3 as shown here. Makes 

sure is straight, then glue into 

position. 

Step 17 - Wing Assembly (upper spar)

This next part takes a bit of time, 

so we recommend against using 

an instant setting glue. If you are 

using CA, use a thicker formulation 

that gives you a bit of working 

time.

Measure and cut one of the 3/8” 

square basswood strips to use as 

the upper spar. Apply glue to the 

top of the ribs where they will contact the upper spar. 

Working from the tip rib (R8), carefully press the upper spar into 

position. This will be a tight fit and might require “wiggling” the 

spar from side to side to slip in-between the sheer webs. Be sure to 

press the spar completely into the slot in each rib, making it flush 

with the sheer webs.

Now wick thin C/A along the spar to sheer web joints along the 

entire length of the spar

When fitting the upper spar to make the top of the dihedral box, 

be careful not to drip excess glue into the box formed between 

R2 and R1.

Step 18 - Wing Assembly (rear upper sub-spar)

Locate one 1/4” square 

balsa stick. This is used as 

the rear sub-spar. Using the 

same technique you did in 

the previous step, measure, 

cut and glue this piece in 

position. Be sure it is glued 

to each rib and rear sheer 

web.

Step 19 - Wing Assembly (leading edge & sub-spars)

Locate two 1/4” square 

balsa sticks. These are 

used as the front sub-spars. 

Using the same technique 

you did the in the previous 

steps, measure, cut and 

glue these pieces in 

position. Also locate one 

3/8” square basswood 

strip, this will be the 

leading edge. Measure, cut and glue this in position. Be sure all 

three of these strips are glued to each rib.

Step 20 - Wing Assembly (rear spar)

Locate one of the 

1/4” x 1” balsa sticks. 

Measure and cut this 

to fit  in the front 

groove cut into the R6 

and R7 ribs. It should 

be flush with the R8 

and R5 ribs as shown.

Make sure this is fully inserted, and  when properly in position, glue 

in place.
