(See Figure 7)

  Hold the elevons together and sand them until they are identical.  Trim the

outboard end to match the angle of the wing tip.  Trim the inboard end of the elevon to
match the angle of the motor cutout.  Make the elevons about 1/16” shorter than the wing
tip to assure the elevons don’t rub against the winglets after they are installed.

(See Figure 7A)

  Round the top of the trailing edge of the elevon.  Sand a 45

o

  angle into

the front of the elevon.

Spray the elevons with any spray enamel.  Primer works well.  Apply a light coat of paint
and immediately wipe it with a cloth before it soaks in and dries.  Let the paint dry and
repeat the procedure one more time.  Let the paint dry completely before attaching them
with the hinge tape.

(See Figure 8A)

  Make sure that the paint is dry.  A strong tape bond can be achieved by

spraying a light coat of #77 adhesive on the elevon before applying the hinge tape.  Mask
off the elevon leaving 1/2” exposed.  Spray the exposed area with a light coat of #77
adhesive.  Remove the masking tape.  Let the #77 adhesive dry.  Position the elevon on
the trailing edge of the wing with a small piece of masking tape on the bottom side.  Peel
the paper backing from the 1” x 3 mil Mylar hinge tape.  

(See Figure 8B)

  On the top

side align the hinge tape by holding the peeled tape over the seam. Secure the elevon by
pressing the hinge tape in place at one end.  Press the hinge tape down along the length of
the elevon.  Remove the small pieces of masking tape.
