Acro Wot - Instructions
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Acro Wot Mk2 ARTF - the
first Almost Ready to Fly version of Chris Foss' classic low-winger.
Its unbeatable combination of great looks and superb flying
performance make it a must-have
sports model!
Assembly is quick and easy, but
before commencing construction,
please ensure that you read these
instructions in their entirety.
Fitting the Ailerons and Joining the Wing
STEP 2
The wings and ailerons are supplied with the hinges loose fitted, ready for
installation. Remove both ailerons and ensure that the hinges are inserted mid-
way in their slots. Using thin cyano, pour a couple of drops onto each hinge -
above and below - ensuring the glue soaks into the hinge and the surrounding
wood.
Fitting the Canopy
STEP 1
The pre-trimmed canopy is supplied ready to fit using your favourite
method. The kit is supplied with four screws to retain the canopy, or
you can use canopy glue (or a combination of both) if you prefer. If
using canopy glue, carefully apply to the perimeter of the canopy and
hold it place with strips of tape until the glue dries.
STEP 3
Carefully slide each aileron into position, ensuring a gap-free hinge line. Make
sure that each aileron lines up with the wing tips and that they are free to move
through their entire travel. Centre each aileron between the root and tip so that
there is an equal gap at both ends. Minimise any hinge gap, then carefully add
a couple of drops of thin cyano to the top and bottom of each hinge ensuring
that the glue does not run through the hinge line onto the bottom of the wing.
Turn the wing over and drop more cyano onto each hinge from the other side.

STEP 4
Locate the wing joining brace. Note the orientation - the top of the brace is
straight and the bottom has a slight dihedral angle. Measure and mark a
centre-line on the joining brace. Coat the inside of the corresponding slot in
the wing panel and one half of the brace with rapid setting epoxy. Ensure that
adequate epoxy is used to fully cover all surfaces.
STEP 5
Insert the brace half-way into one wing panel using the centre-line as a guide.
Wipe off any excess epoxy.
