15.
Fit parts F-13, F-14, F-15 and F-16 into position on the fuselage top. The formers should be 90 degrees to the fuselage
top. Glue both parts F-17 (fuel tank supports) into position.
16.
Glue the 3/32" x 3/16"" top stringer into position between formers F-14 and F-17. Now glue the 3/32" sq. stringers into
position.
17.
Glue the three parts F-8A into position on the front of the firewall.
18.
Mount the motor mount on the front of F-8A. Use 4-40 screws and blind nuts. Glue the blind nuts to the rear of the firewall
to hold them securely into position. Mount the nose wheel bearing to the firewall with the screws and nuts provided. Notch
out F-9 as required for clearance around the lower nuts.
19.
Glue parts F-17 into position.
20.
Assemble the fuel tank. Drill holes in the firewall for the fuel line, the vent line, the nose wheel steering pushrod and the
throttle pushrod.
21.
Mount the fuel tank and the fuel and vent lines into the model. The fuel tank can be· held into position with thin servo tape
between the tank and parts F-17.
22.
Remove the motor and mount from the model.
23.
Glue the 3/32" x 3/16" strips into position between F-8 and F-3 on the top of the fuselage and between F-8 and F-4 on the
bottom of the fuselage.
24.
Sheet the top of the fuselage with 1/16" balsa sheet between F-8 and F-13. Sheet the bottom of the fuselage between F-8
and F-4.
25.
Sand the entire fuselage smooth all over.
26.
Mount the servo rails and servos into position. Make cutouts as required in fuselage top for the servos.
27.
Carve and sand the rudder fairing blocks to shape. Glue the stabilizer and the fin fairing blocks to the fuselage. Slide the
fin part way into position between the fairing blocks to make sure it will be properly aligned and to maintain the proper
spacing between the blocks.
28.
When the glue is dry, slide the fin completely into position (do not glue).
29.
Temporarily hinge (do not glue) the elevators to the stabilizer.
30.
Cut the lower hinge slot in the rudder and the fuselage and then temporarily hinge (do not glue) the rudder to the model.
31.
Attach the control horns to the elevator and rudder with 2-56 screws. Install the rudder and elevator pushrods with clevises
at the horns and servo connectors at the servos.
32.
Install the nose landing wire and steering arm so the arm is on the right side of the firewall. Install the engine and mount
back on the firewall.
33.
Bend and install the throttle pushrod and the nose gear steering pushrod. Attach these pushrods to the servos with servo
connectors.
34.
Glue the 1/4" sq. spruce cowl attach blocks to the front of F-8.
35.
Carefully trim the cowl and fit it to the fuselage. With the cowl on, attach the propeller to the motor and make sure the cowl
is far enough aft to allow propeller clearance. The dimples for the cowl screws on each side of the cowl should line up with
the center of the 1/4" sq. spruce strips. Sand the lower comers of F-1 on each side as required to obtain the proper fit.
36.
Attach the cowl to the model with the 4 screws provided.
37.
Trim the canopy and test fit it to the model. Do not glue it into position at this time.
