Dynaflite GPMA0525 - Manual (Page 18)

CA but we prefer 30-minute epoxy. Whatever
adhesive you use, just make sure the cloth is
thoroughly saturated and is securely bonded to the
sheeting.
❏
1. Cut both aileron torque rods to a length of 5/8".
❏
2. Round one end of the 3/16" x 1-1/2" wing
dowel. Test fit the dowel into the hole you drilled
in former 3. If necessary, use a round wood file or
a small tube wrapped with sandpaper to enlarge
the hole so the dowel fits easily but snugly.
❏
3. Cut a 3/16" notch in the center of the TE of the
wing to accommodate the dowel. The aft,
rounded end of the dowel should protrude from
the TE of the wing 5/16".
❏
4. Fit the wing to the fuselage using the dowel.
Make adjustments where necessary for a good fit.
❏
5. With the wing on the fuselage, apply a small
amount of epoxy over the dowel to glue it to the
wing. For additional strength, add some Great
Planes Milled Fiberglass to the epoxy. Be careful
so you don’t glue the dowel to the fuse.
❏
6. After the epoxy from the previous step has
fully cured, remove the wing. Glue the dowel to
the bottom of the wing with more epoxy.
❏
7. Similar to the way you did the trailing edge
of the wing, notch the leading edge of the wing to
accommodate the 3/8" x 1/2" x 1-3/4" wing bolt
block when it is in position against the aft edge
of former 2. Test fit the wing with the wing bolt block.
❏
8. Remove the wing bolt block and drill a #25
(or 5/32") hole through the block as shown on the
plan. If you have access to one, use a drill press
to keep the hole on center as you drill, or just
proceed carefully and use your
eagle eye to drill
straight through.
❏
9. Cut 11/16" from the top of the wing bolt
block. You now have a bottom and a top wing
bolt block.
