Building the Tail Surfaces
1.
Pin the plan to your building board and cover it with a sheet of wax paper to prevent the glue from sticking the parts to the
plan.
2.
Build the stabilizer over the plan using parts S-1, S-2, S-3, S-4, S-5 and G. The remaining structure is made from 1/16" sq.
balsa strip.
3.
Build the rudder over the plan using parts R-1, R-2, R-3 and G. The remaining structure is made from 1/16" sq. balsa strip.
4.
Remove the rudder and the stabilizer from the plan. Sand the leading and trailing edges round and then sand the parts
smooth all over.
Building the Fuselage
5.
Bulld the two fuselage side frames over the plan using parts F-1, F-2 and F-3. The remaining structure is made from 1/16"
sq. balsa and 1/16" x 1/8" balsa strip.
6.
Cut two 1/16" strips to length and glue them to the rear face of part F-4 as shown on the plan.
7.
Posttion F-4 onto one of the side frames. Hold it 90 degrees to the side frame and carefully tack glue it into position with
one small spot of glue at the top and bottom.
8.
Place F-5 into position and glue it to the fuselage side frame.
9.
Glue the opposite side frame to parts F-4 and F-5. Make sure that the fuselage assembly remains true and square during
assembly.
10.
Glue part F-7 into position. Glue part F-8 into position.
11.
Glue part F-6 into position.
12.
Pull the aft end of the fuselage sides into contact and glue them together.
13.
Glue the 1/16" sq. cross braces into position as shown on the plan in the cabin and aft fuselage areas.
14.
Glue part F-9 into position.
15.
Glue the 1/16" sq. strips into position between F-6 and F-7.
16.
Glue parts F-3A into position on the outside of parts F-3.
17.
Glue the fuselage side stringers into position as shown on the plan.
18.
Bend the landing gear wire to the shape shown on the plan. Glue the landing gear wire into position and then glue part F-5A
into position.
19.
Glue the removable nose block parts C-1 and C-2 together. Test fit the nose block to the front of the fuselage but do not
glue into place.
20.
Drill a 1/32" hole In the nose block for the propeller shaft. Be sure to maintain the proper right thrust and down thrust when
drilling this hole.
21.
Sand the nose block to shape and sand the entire fuselage smooth all over.
