BUILD THE WING
to each hole to harden the wood surrounding the holes. When
the glue has cured, install the control horns onto the ailerons
using four 2-56 x 1/2" [13mm] machine screws and control
horn backplates.

8. Use tape or a small clamp to hold the ailerons in the
neutral position. Make a mark on the pushrods where they cross
the outer holes in the servo arms. Make a 90 degree bend at the
mark on the pushrod and cut off the excess pushrod 1/4" [6mm]
beyond the bend. Attach the pushrods to the servo arms using
90 degree pushrod connectors. Thread the clevises up or down
on the pushrods as necessary to center the ailerons with the
servo arms centered. When satisfi ed, slide the silicone clevis
retainers to the ends of the clevises to secure them.
FINISH THE WING
❏
1. Use epoxy to glue the nylon
wing dowels
into the center
LE of the wing. The smooth ends of the dowels should protrude
from the root ribs approximately 1/2" [13mm]. Use a paper
towel dampened with denatured alcohol to wipe away any
excess epoxy.
❏
2. Temporarily mount the wing onto the fuselage using the
1/4-20 x 1-1/4" [32mm] nylon wing bolt.
❏
3. Put the
belly pan
in place onto the underside of the wing
and align it with the fuselage. When satisfi ed with its position,
tape it in place to the fuse. Use a felt-tip pen to trace along the
sides of the belly pan onto the wing.
