Checking the Wing Washout

Required Parts

Wing

Required Tools and Adhesives

Heat gun

1. Place the wing on a flat surface and check the

wing washout. There must be 1/2" (13mm)
between the trailing edge of the wing at the tip
and work surface when the center of the wing
is flat against the work surface. If the wing is
not twisted correctly, hold the wing in a twisted
position and use a heat gun to remove the
wrinkles from the covering. Repeat the process
until the correct washout is present. The
washout makes the plane more stable in flight.
