PREPARATION
❏
1. Use a covering iron with a cover sock to tighten the
covering or remove any wrinkles found on parts of the model.
Note: When moving the iron over trim pieces that are sharply
pointed, be certain to move the iron away from the point, not
toward it.
❏
2. Lay three or four
paper towels over each
other and cut the stack
into small squares. These
small paper towel squares,
dampened with denatured
alcohol, will come in
handy for epoxy cleanup
and other general cleanup
throughout assembly.
ASSEMBLE THE FUSELAGE
Test-Mount the Elevator
and Rudder Servos
It will be easier to cut the covering from the servo mounts and
drill the servo mounting screws now, before the horizontal
stabilizer is glued into position.
❏
1. If using Futaba S9650 servos, cut the side-mount tabs
from each servo using a razor saw—don’t try to simply score
the tabs with a knife thinking they can be broken off—this will
probably damage the case. Use a small fi le or sandpaper to
sand the cut corners smooth and even.
