6. Taped to the inside of the root rib is a fine string. This
is used to ease installation of the aileron servo lead. Untape
the string from the root rib, pull the end through the hole you
just cut and tape the string to the underside of the wing.
❏
7. Repeat steps 2-6 for the left wing.
❏
8. Select the two wing joiners. Being sure to align the
angled sides, epoxy them together with 6-minute Epoxy. Do
not disturb for 1/2 hour or until the epoxy is fully cured.
❏
9. Test fit the joiner into the right wing panel up to its
center, using no glue. Note that the pointed side of the V
shaped joiner points toward the hole you cut in step 5. Test
fit the left wing panel onto the joiner as well. Repeat until you
can comfortably join the wings. NOTE: If the wing panels do
not align (have more than a 1/16" gap on either the top or
bottom side of the wing), carefully sand the joiners to fit.
❏
10. Coat the right half of the joiner and the right wing root
rib with 30-minute epoxy. Slide the joiner into the right wing.
Coat the left root rib and joiner half with epoxy and slide the
wing halves together. Tape the panels together, top and
bottom, with masking tape and do not disturb overnight.
NOTE: Wipe off any excess epoxy. Alcohol will help clean up
any partially cured epoxy.
❏
11. Locate the two holes, for the wing bolts, at the trailing
edge of the bottom of the wing and cut the covering away.
