Construction Manual
Step 4 - Wing Assembly (WB2 & WB2A)
Locate one WB2 and one WB2A
sheer web from BP20.
Note that these have a small
circle engraved on one side.
This designates the side that
should be inserted into R1.
Place these in position so the
tabs in WB2 fit all the way into
R1 (WB2 in front, WB2A in back.
When satisfied with the fit and
location, glue these pieces in place. Make sure that the WB2’s are
glued to the spar as well as R1.
Step 5 - Wing Assembly (R2)
Locate R2 from BP5 and two
WB3 sheer webs. R2 fits into
place as shown here, notching
into WB2 tabs.
The WB3 pieces are installed
next and when satisfied with
the fit and location, glue these
pieces in place.
Step 6 - Wing Assembly (R3)
Locate three R3s from BP3 and
four WB3 sheer webs. These
fit in place as shown, using the
same techniques you used in
attaching the R2 ribs.
When satisfied with the fit and
location, glue these pieces in
place.
Step 7 - Wing Assembly (R4)
Locate two R4s from BP2 and
four WB3 sheer webs. These
fit in place as shown, using the
same techniques you used in
attaching the other ribs.
When satisfied with the fit and
location, glue these pieces in
place.
Step 8 - Wing Assembly (R4 servo rails)
On the bottom of each R4 you’ll
see a pair of rectangular cutouts.
These are used to locate the
aileron servo mounting rails.
Locate a full length of 3/16 x 3/8”
basswood strip. This will be your
“scrap” piece that all mounts and
smaller pieces will be cut from.
Measure and cut two lengths
of the basswood (roughly 2.5”
long). Slide these in position as shown, the glue in position when
satisfied with the alignment.
Step 9 - Wing Assembly (R5)
Locate R5 from BP4 and fit it
in place as shown, using the
same techniques you used in
attaching the other ribs.
When satisfied with the fit and
location, glue R5 in place.
Step 10 - Wing Assembly (W4)
Locate two WB4 sheer webs from BP18.
Note that the WB4s have a small circle
engraved on one side. This designates
the side that should face the wing tip,
glued to R6 in a later step.
Place these in position as shown and
when satisfied with the fit and location,
glue these pieces in place
Step 11 - Wing Assembly (WT1)
Locate one WT1, one R6 from
BP1, and one T3 from BP5.
These three pieces interlock as
shown, first sliding the T3 into
the rear slot in WT1, then that
assembly slots into the center
of R6. When satisfied with the
fit, glue these pieces together.
Step 12 - Wing Assembly (T2)
Locate two T2s from BP2. These are
positioned in the slots toward the front
of WT1. One goes on each side as shown
here. When satisfied with the fit, glue
these pieces together.
Step 13 - Wing Assembly (R7A, R7B, R7C)
Locate one R7A, R7B and R7C from BP1. These fit into the slot
in WT1 as shown. Note that
there are two sets of slots, and
when installed as shown here,
they will automatically align
with the correct slots. When
satisfied with the fit, glue
these pieces in place, making sure the R7 pieces are 90° to the
surface of WT1.
Step 14 - Wing Assembly (R7D, R7E, R7F)
Locate one R7D, R7E and
R7F from BP1. These fit on
the underside slots of WT1
as shown. When satisfied with
the fit, glue these pieces in
place, making sure the R7
pieces are 90° to the surface
of WT1.
