wing panel, again positioning their open ends forward and leaving
them about 1/2" away from the surface of the panel. Wipe off any
excess glue and allow the epoxy to set.

FUSELAGE AND TAIL GROUP:

The fuselage is provided with the removable Canopy Hatch in
place. To remove this hatch, simply lift it up at the front and slide
it forward, disengaging the locating dowel pin from the rear
plywood former.

❑

1) The fuselage has been built and covered with several

openings that must now be opened up.
These are:

1 - Main wing tube holes - Located on fuselage sides at

fiberglass wing tube

2 - Aileron Servo Lead Holes - Located on fuselage sides

just behind wing tube holes

3 - Rear Wing Locating Dowel Holes - Located on fuselage

sides 5" behind main wing tube

4 - Wing J-Hook Clearance Holes - Located on fuselage

sides just ahead of wing tube

5 - Rudder and Elevator Pushrod Openings - Located on

fuselage sides 1" below stabilizer

6 - Antenna Exit Hole - Located on fuselage bottom 3-1/2"

from end

7 - Tail Brace Blind Mounting Nut Hole - Located on

fuselage bottom 1-1/4" from end

8 - Three Bolt Holes For Mounting Landing Gear - Located

on fuselage bottom under landing gear plate

9 - Fuel Drain Hole - Located on fuselage bottom just ahead

of the firewall

10 - Bolt hole in the center forward end of the canopy hatch

With a hobby knife and a sharp #11 blade, carefully open each of
these holes. When you are finished, we suggest using a small
heat sealing type iron to reheat and firmly attach the covering
around the holes just made.

❑

2) From the kit contents, locate the 5mm (7/32") dia. x 150mm

(5-3/4") hardwood dowel rear wing positioning dowel. Insert the
dowel into the fuselage side, directly beneath the plywood servo
mounting tray on the inside of the fuselage and through the
corresponding hole in the opposite fuselage side.

Center the

dowel in place, leaving the ends protruding from the fuselage sides
approximately 1-5/16" on each side.

The wing panels can now be test fitted to the fuselage. From
the kit contents locate the main wing tube (18mm [11/16"] dia. x
36.6cm [15-3/16"] long).

Insert the wing tube through the

fuselage, roughly centering it. With the aileron servo side down,
slip a wing panel in place onto the tube and slide it in place up to
the rear wing positioning dowel. Feed the servo lead into the
fuselage through the appropriate hole. Line up the dowel with the
hole in the rear of the wing panel and press the panel in place up
to the fuselage side. Repeat this process for the remaining wing
panel. The wings are now in place. Note that the J-hooks now
protrude into the fuselage in front of the fiberglass wing tube. The
fit should be good with little if any gaps. Remove the wing panels.

The rear wing positioning dowel is now permanently glued in place
into the fuselage. Use a drop or two of thin CA on the dowel,
