Install The Aileron Servo Tray; Install The Wing Bolt Plate; Install Fuselage Components; Install The Engine Mount - GREAT PLANES Easy Sport 40 Instruction Manual

Carefully read and practice the following step
completely before mixing any epoxy. The entire step
must be completed before the epoxy begins to set.
3. When you are satisfied with the fit, pull the panels apart
and mix up a large batch (about 1.5 oz.) of 30-minute
epoxy. Using an epoxy mixing stick, liberally spread epoxy
inside both of the joiner slots and on one half of the joiner
itself. Next, quickly install the glued end of the joiner into one
of the slots. Spread more epoxy onto the root ribs and the
protruding end of the wing joiner. Slide the two wing panels
together. The epoxy should squeeze out around the edges.
This is a good sign that there is enough epoxy to securely
join the two wing halves. Double check the alignment and
wipe off any excess glue with a paper towel and rubbing
alcohol. Hold the two wing halves together using masking
tape. Continually check the alignment of the wing halves
while the epoxy cures.
4. Once the glue has cured, check the joint for any small
gaps and fill them with epoxy. Wipe off any excess epoxy
using a paper towel and rubbing alcohol. The paper towel
can also be used to remove any fingerprints or epoxy
residue that may have been left behind.

Install the Aileron Servo Tray

1. Glue the aileron servo tray and uprights into the wing
using 6-minute epoxy.

Install the Wing Bolt Plate

1. Lay the wing bolt plate on a table with the punch
marks facing upwards. Draw a centerline across the wing
bolt plate. Using a hobby knife, gently score the wing bolt
plate along this centerline. This score line is to allow the
wing bolt plate to be easily bent to the contour of the wing
and should not be cut completely through the plate.
2. Position the wing bolt plate on the trailing edge of
the top of the wing. Use the centerline on the wing bolt
plate to center it between the aft root ribs. Draw a line
around the plate on the covering using a felt-tip pen.
Carefully remove the covering with a hobby knife. Be
careful not to cut into the wood.
3. Using 6-minute epoxy, glue the wing bolt plate in
place with the punch marks facing up. Clamp it in position
while the epoxy cures.

INSTALL FUSELAGE COMPONENTS

Install the Engine Mount

Note: The following steps depict the installation of a 2-stroke
engine. The steps are similar if you are using a 4-stroke
engine, although some changes to the throttle pushrod
routings will need to be made.
