Fuselage Construction
Sight along flats of ribs forward of spar S3 to
ensure wings are not warped. If you discover
that your wings are warped: Lightly mist wing
with glass cleaner solution and pin to a flat
work surface. Allow to dry completely before
removing. Lightly sand wings to a smooth
finish.
Final Assembly
We have found it beneficial to lightly mist the
entire airframe, prior to covering, with a
lacquer based spray - We recommend Deft,
available at your hardware store.
Cover model using small swatches of light
weight covering material such as AeroLite.
Cover only the TOP surface of the wing.
Performance of this model will be reduced
SIGNIFICANTLY by covering the underside of
the wing.
Fit wings to the fuselage assembly. The
wings interlock with the fuselage sides at the
spar and the leading and trailing edges.
Once satisfied that the are no gaps between
the fuselage and the wing root, secure the
wing with CA glue along the top and bottom
root edge and within the fuselage along the
spar tab.
