Do not use the rubber grommets on the
servo mounts. Servos are hard mounted
directly to the servo mounting plates. Best to
program your radio, attach the servo arm,
and adjust for the correct travel of the spoiler
servo. Also make sure there is enough
clearance around the servo arm for the
spoiler door stirrup to retract down into the
wing. We applied a dot of Zap Goo to the
points of the servo mounting screws.
•
Servo arm needs to be in line with the
midline of the servo case in the retracted
position and at about 70 degrees to the
midline in the fully deployed position. Make
an exit hole for the servo extension in the
bottom wing sheeting at the root end. Add
part W6b to reinforce the alignment pin hole.
•
Once both center panels are completed, fit
them together over the center wing joiner
with the laminated center rib in place. The
center rib may need to be sanded to fit flush
with the top and bottom wing skins. Much
easier to do this before the panels are joined!
Prop up both wing tips an equal amount,
align the trailing edges of the two panels
along a reference line, and once satisfied
epoxy wing joiner, center rib, and two panels
together.
•
Reinforce the center joint with a wrap of
fiberglass top and bottom. This hardens the
balsa surface and helps prevent crushing of
the balsa sheeting when tightening the wing
bolts.
