E-flite Alpha Sport 450 PNP Assembly Manual

OPTIONAL - EPOxy ThE WING hALvES

As an option, you can use epoxy to join the wings

together of your Alpha 450. Make sure your vehicle

is large enough to accept the assembled wing before

gluing the two panels into a one-piece wing.

A. Mix 1/2 oz (15ml) of 6-minute epoxy. Use

an epoxy brush to apply a thin layer of epoxy to

the exposed plywood on the left and right wing

panels as shown.

B. Use six 3-inch (76mm) pieces of low-tack

tape, three on the top of the wing and three on

the bottom of the wing, to hold the wing panels

together until the epoxy fully cures.

C. Use a paper towel and rubbing alcohol to

remove any excess epoxy from the wing before it

has a chance to cure. You may need to use two or

three clean paper towels to remove all the epoxy

residue from the wing.

4. Plug the leads from the aileron servos into the

Y-harness from the receiver that is plugged into the

AIL port of the receiver.

5. To fit the wing to the fuselage, rest it on the

fuselage as shown. The dowels at the front of the

wing will fit into the holes in the fuselage. Slide the

wing forward until the leading edge of the wing is

against the fuselage as shown in the bottom photo.
