STEP 4
Install your servos as shown using the screws supplied with
your radio noting that the servo output arms face towards
the front of the wing.
STEP 5
The wings and ailerons are supplied with the hinges loose
fitted, ready for installation. Remove both ailerons and
ensure that the hinges are inserted mid-way in their slots.
Using thin cyano, pour a couple of drops onto each hinge -
above and below - ensuring the glue soaks into the hinge and
the surrounding wood.
STEP 6
Carefully slide each aileron into position, ensuring a
gap-free hinge line. Make sure that each aileron lines up
with the wing tips and that they are free to move through
their entire travel. Centre each aileron between the
root and tip so that there is an equal gap at both ends.
Minimise any hinge gap, then carefully add a couple of
drops of thin cyano to the top and bottom of each hinge
ensuring that the glue does not run through the hinge line
onto the bottom of the wing. Turn the wing over and drop
more cyano onto each hinge from the other side.
STEP 7
Prepare the aileron pushrods by screwing on a nylon snap
link and fuel tube keeper. Locate the aileron control horns.
They are screwed in position on the ailerons in line with
the aileron servo's output arm. Align the row of holes
in the horn with the hinge-line. Mark and pilot drill two
mounting holes.
STEP 8
Screw the horn to the aileron. The screws thread into the
moulded horn plate on the top surface of the wing.
