2. Prepare 1/2 oz. of 30-minute epoxy. Working quickly,
thoroughly coat the inside of both wing halves where the
joiner fits and one half of the joiner with epoxy. Making certain
the joiner is upright, insert the coated end into one of the
wing halves. Coat the other end of the joiner and the root ribs
with the remainder of the epoxy. Join the wing halves tightly,
holding them together. Use a paper towel dampened with
denatured alcohol to wipe away the excess epoxy that comes
out of the wing. Tightly hold the wing together with several
strips of masking tape on the top and bottom, making certain
both halves are in full contact and the leading and trailing
edges are aligned. Let the wing set until the epoxy has set.

ASSEMBLE THE FUSELAGE

Mount the Wing

1. Cut the covering from the four wing mounting dowel
holes on the sides of the fuselage.
2. Center the two 4mm x 80mm hardwood wing mounting
dowels in the holes. Use thin CA to glue the dowels in place.
3. Install the wing on the fuselage using four rubber bands.

Mount the Stabilizer and Fin

1. Using a sharp hobby knife, remove the covering from
the stabilizer slot at the aft end of the fuselage and from the
rudder slot in the top of the fuselage. Also remove the
temporary balsa block from the stabilizer slot.
