Repeat step 50 to glue the Right Center
Section Trailing Edge in place on the
back of the wing, also gluing it to the Left
Center Section Trailing Edge at the
same time.
52.
Double check to verify that both Aileron
Torque Rods will pivot freely. If they
don’t, you must find the problem and
correct it now, before going on to the
next step.
53.
Locate the two pre-shaped balsa wood Ailerons. Using a 3/32" dia. drill bit, drill a hole in one end of each aileron to accept
the Aileron Torque Rod wire. The location of the hole must be centered on the leading edge of the aileron, and it should be
1-3/8" from the end of the aileron. The path of the hole must travel straight into the core of the aileron, centered equal
distance from both sides. The hole should be 5/8" deep.
54.
Use a modeling knife to cut a (3/32" wide x3/32" deep) groove in the leading edge of each aileron to accept the Aileron
Torque Rod wire. The groove should go from the 3/32" hole you drilled in the last step to the root end of the aileron. Trial fit
(without glue) the aileron over the end of the Torque Rod wire to check the fit.
55.
Mark the locations for the Sig Easy
Hinges (4 per aileron) on the leading
edge of the ailerons and on the trailing
edge of the wing.
56.
Cut slots for the hinges in the Ailerons
and Wing following the instructions
"INSTALLING SIG EASY HINGES" at
the end of this wing construction section
(perform steps 1 and 2).
57.
Once all the slots have been cut, insert a single Easy Hinge halfway into each slot in the trailing edge of the wing. DO NOT
GLUE THE HINGES IN AT THIS TIME!
58.
Now carefully slide the ailerons onto the exposed half of the Easy Hinges, and onto the exposed arm of the Torque Rod, all
at the same time. You will find it easiest to slide the ailerons onto the hinges at angle, one hinge at a time, starting from the
tip end, instead of trying to push it straight onto all the hinges at once. ONCE AGAIN, DO NOT GLUE THE HINGES IN AT
THIS TIME!
59.
Tape the ailerons into neutral position, with the root end in perfect alignment with the fixed Center Section Trailing Edge
pieces.
60.
Pin a piece of scrap balsa or plywood to the bottom surfaces of both the aileron and the wing, out near the wing tip, to hold
this end of the aileron securely in neutral position.
61.
Razor saw and block sand the end of the aileron to match the shape of the wing tip. Here are a couple different views
showing the proper final shape of the wing tip/aileron tip area.
