Hangar 9 3.1m Sukhoi SU-26MM ARF Assembly Manual

3. Temporarily mount the canister mounts and install

canisters to center the mount. Use lubricant on the canisters

for easier passage through the mounts before they are glued.

The canister mount touches the floor of the fuse and needs

to be glued to the sides and bottom former. Once mount is

centered, mark the spot on the sides and formers. Remove

the canisters and apply glue to the sides of the mount and

fuselage where they contact using 30-minute epoxy to

enough have time for adjustment.

Canister/Header Assembly

1. Recommended header length for MTW TD110 canister

and DA-170 is 8--9-inches. Cut 1 inch off the stock header.

Assemble the canister/header using a vice-grip to open the

clamps and slide them over the header first then insert the

header and canister into coupler. Leave 1/8--1/4 inch gap

between header and pipe. Since the bump on the header has

to be cut for optimum performance, tap a button head 4-40

screw on the header and slide the slot of the clamp over the

button head screw and coupler to avoid slippage.
