2. Attach the main landing gear to the fuselage with
two 4-40 x 1/2" [13mm] SHC screws, #4 lock washers and
#4 fl at washers.

Install the Rudder
❏
1. Drill a 3/32" [2.3mm]hole, 1/2" [13mm] deep in the
center of each hinge slot to allow the CA to "wick" in. Follow-
up with a #11 blade to clean out the slots. Hint: If you have
one, use a high-speed rotary tool to drill the holes.
❏
2. Use a sharp #11 blade to cut a strip of covering from
the hinge slots in the wing and aileron.
❏
3. Install three 1/2" x 3/4" [13mm x 19mm] hinges into the
rudder. Be sure the hinges remain centered in the rudder. If
needed, insert a T-pin into the center of the hinge to keep it
centered. Install the rudder to the fi n post.
❏
4. Apply three drops of thin CA to each side of each of
the rudder hinges. Allow the glue to harden. Do not apply
CA accelerator. This will cause the hinge to get brittle and
possibly break.
