1. Cut the wing and ailerons from the foam sheet.

2. Insert offset Z-bend clevises (A2) into opposing sides

of two clip hinge control horns. Following the

Expert Tip

previously described, use the 3 x 900mm [1/8" x 35-1/2"] wing
trailing edge tube
as a guide to glue four hinges and a control
horn into each aileron. The control horns should protrude from
the bottom of the ailerons, and the offset Z-bend clevises
should be on the inboard sides of the horns. Remove the tube
once the CA has hardened.

3. Glue a control surface brace (E1) onto the roots of

the ailerons.

4. Slide four hinge retainer rings (C3) onto the wing

trailing edge tube. Position the rings so that they align with
the outer slots in the TE of the wing. Secure each retainer
with a drop of glue on the outside of the gap. Glue the
trailing edge tube to the TE of the wing. Be careful not to get
glue between the rings.

5. Glue the 3 x 900mm [1/8" x 35-1/2"] wing leading

edge tube to the LE of the wing.
