Canopy Installation - Option 1

We show two different options for the canopy

installation. The second option can be found on

Page 29.

1. Use low-tack tape to tape the canopy to the

fuselage. Make sure it is centered left-to-right

on the fuselage.

2. Use a pin vise and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to

drill four mounting holes for the canopy. Position the

holes as far forward and rearward as possible.

3. Remove the canopy from the fuselage. Apply

2–3 drops of thin CA in each hole to harden the

surrounding wood. Allow the CA to fully cure to

prevent getting any on the canopy.

4. Attach the canopy using four 2mm x 8mm sheet

metal screws and a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
