Carbon Rod Installation

Required Parts

Assembled airframe

Carbon rod, 5.4-inch (137mm) (4)

Carbon rod, 5.1-inch (130mm) (2)

Carbon rod, 19.4-inch (492mm)

Carbon rod, 12.8-inch (325mm) (4)

Required Tools and Adhesives

Foam-safe CA

Foam-safe CA activator

Straight edge

Note: You must take extra care in these next few steps

to maintain the alignment of your airframe and to not

build in any unwanted twists in the airframe. Make sure

to keep everything aligned and the wings straight with

the fuselage. Also make sure not to induce any twist

in the wings, which could adversely affect the flight

characteristics of your aircraft.

1. Slide the 19.4-inch (492mm) carbon rod through the

cabane struts and fuselage. Center the carbon rod and

check that both struts are not bent using a straight edge.

Use foam-safe CA to glue the carbon rod to both struts

and fuselage.
