67.

Mark the centerline on the front edge of the ailerons. Bevel the front of the ailerons to the shape shown on the plan. Drill 
and notch the inboard end of the ailerons to hold the torque rod. Temporarily hinge the ailerons to the wing and trim the 
outboard ends of the aileron to fit with a small gap between them and the wing tips.

 
68.

 
Clamp the ailerons into alignment with the torque rod blocks with cloths pins and then trim and sand the wing tips to 
shape. The back ends should match the bevel on the ailerons.

 
69.

 
Remove the clothes pins and notch the torque rod block and the trailing edge of the wing to allow the torque rods to move 
fore and aft.

 
70.

 
Mark the location of the aileron servo and cut away the top sheet and ribs W-1 to allow the servo to fit into the wing. Glue 
the servo rails to the wing sheeting.

 
71.

 
Mount the aileron servo and connect the pushrods to the servo and the torque rods.

 
72.

 
Place the wing hold down dowels into the fuselage and attach the wing to the fuselage with several rubber bands.

 
73.

 
Build the forward belly scoop onto the bottom of the wing using parts BS-3, BS-4 and BS-5. Adjust the fit of these parts to 
allow the scoop to fit flush with the scoop that is attached to the fuselage. Be careful not to glue the forward belly scoop or 
the wing to the fuselage. When the glue is dry you can sand the belly scoop on the wing smooth and flush with the parts 
that are glued to the fuselage.

 
 

Covering

 
74.

 
Remove the engine, control surfaces ,wing dowels and other items. Sand the entire model smooth with 320 grit 
sandpaper.

 
75.

 
Cover the model with your choice of iron on covering materials.

 
76.

 
Apply the decals and other markings as desired. An ultra fine Sharpie Marker can be used to draw panel lines and other 
details. Paint the canopy frames or use trim tape. Paint the engine compartment and wing dowels with a fuel proof paint.

 
 

Final Assembly

 
77.

 
Install the elevators and then the rudder to the model and glue the hinges in place.

 
78.

 
Install the pushrods and control horns and connect the pushrods to the servos.

 
79.

 
Install the landing gear into the wings with the #4 screws as shown and then mount the wheels. Cover the parts LG and 
glue them to the landing gear struts with a small bead of silicone rubber.

 
80.

 
Install the fuel tank and fuel and vent lines.

 
81.

 
Install the engine mount to the firewall and bolt the engine to the mount.

 
82.

 
Install the throttle pushrod.

 
83.

 
Place the canopy on the model and mark the covering material under it. Remove and trim away the covering material so 
that the canopy can be glued directly to the wood surface. Paint the cockpit area with the color of your choice and glue the 
canopy to the model when the paint is dry.

 
84.

 
Paint the scale exhaust parts and then glue them to the model. Cut the covering away from the area where they will be 
attached to allow a good glue joint.

 
85.

 
Glue the wing dowels into position in the fuselage.
