to make sure the end of the aileron is aligned

evenly with the wing tip.

gap using a hobby knife with a #11 blade. The

blade should just fit in the gap between the aileron

and wing.

When hinging the aileron, do not use CA accelerator.

The CA must be allowed to penetrate the hinge or

the bond between the hinge and wood could fail.

9. Flex the aileron slightly so the hinges can be

seen. Make sure not to change the hinge gap in the

process. Saturate the hinges using thin CA on both

the top and bottom of the hinge to both sides of the

wing and aileron.

10. After the CA has fully cured, check to make

sure the hinges are secure by gently pulling on the

aileron and wing. If you find any loose hinges,

apply more CA to the hinge and recheck.
