FUSELAGE / WING FILLET
While this fillet is not required it will im -
prove the appearance of the model sig-
nificantly. Start by applying two strips of
covering material to the wing where it in-
terfaces with the wing. This material will
prevent the fillet material from permanent -
ly boning the wing to the fuselage. Apply
a thick coat of wax or silicone grease to
the covering to act as a release agent.
Bring this material all the way around the
leading edged and back to the belly pan
in front and about 1/2” around the trailing
edge. Give it a heaevy coat of wax and
don’t buff it out.
A temporary strip of MonoKote is applied to the wing in the
area of the fuselage. Be sure to wrap it over the edges as
shown here.
Place the wing onto the fuselage and se-
cure it with the wing bolts.
Glue the two fillet supports to the fuselage
at the trailing edge of the wing.
The fillet supports butt against the wing but glue to the fuse -
lage. Note that they are slightly oversizes and will be sanded
down with the fillet after is has been applied.
Mix up your fillet material and apply it, use
the supplied FILLET TOOL to shape the
fillet and then carefully remove all excess
material. Let this cure completely.
Remove the wing bolts and carefully re-
move the wing. If necessary you can de-
laminate the covering material by sliding a
thin blade between it and the wing.
The edge of the fillet will be sharp and vul -
nerable to chipping, sand this edge down
lightly to prevent this.
After removing the temporary MonoKote the fillet will give it a
great finished look to your model.
The feathered edge will be sanded smooth, note the fillet has been
trimmed flush with the fuselage opening
