SIDE CABIN WINDOWS
Trim the windows carefully from the molded
sheet. There are three windows on each side.
When cutting, leave about ¼ inch inside seam
for each window.
Trial fit windows , make any adjustment
necessary, then glue them in. I used aflex white
glue called PIX, available at most hardware
stores. You can also use R/C Canopy glue or
Epoxy, but I have found that it is easy to clean
up mistakes using paper towel and water when
you use the flex white glue.
Let dry over night.
Next, carefully cut out the Wind Screen.
I found that by lightly marking the cut out lines
with a marker made it much easier to follow
while cutting. I also found that the wing saddle
area of the screen was much easier to cut out
using a fine point diamond tip on a Dremal Tool.
Again dry fit until you are satisfied, then mount
the Wind Screen using the same type of glue
used on the side windows.
Tape down the Wind Screen and let dry.
Detail the compartment to the level desired.
