WING ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION
AILERON INSTALLATION
1.
Collect the following parts:
(1) Left wing
(1) Right wing
(1) Left aileron
(1) Right aileron
(8) CA hinge
1.
Locate the pre-cut aileron hinge slots in both
wing halves. Using a hobby knife (#11 blade),
slide the blade into each slot to make sure it is
cleanly cut.
Repeat this process with the ailerons, making
sure all hinge slots are clean.
2.
Place a straight pin into the center of each of
the four CA hinges.
Slide each hinge into the hinge slots on one of
the wing halves. The pin will prevent the
hinges from going in further than halfway into
the wing.
3.
Select the aileron for the wing on which you
are working and insert the exposed half of
each hinge into the aileron slots.
Slide the aileron toward the wing until no gap
remains between the aileron and the wing.
4.
Carefully check the alignment of the aileron.
There should be about 1/32" on both ends.
When satisfied with the alignment, remove the
straight pins, being sure to keep the aileron
tight to the wing. You may wish to apply a few
pieces of masking tape to keep the pieces in
place.
5.
Keeping the aileron and wing in position,
apply 3 or 4 drops of Ultra Set thin CA to the
small exposed area of each hinge.
Turn the assembly over and again apply 3 or
4 drops of Ultra Set thin CA to the exposed
hinge surfaces.
Allow to dry for 10 minutes before flexing the
aileron.
6.
Repeat the above steps for the other half of
