33. Cut slots in W1 and W2s for locating W23 Ply
Holddown Plate. The location for W23 is shown on
the plans. Glue W23 in place. Drill a small pilot hole
through W23, W1 and the top sheeting to locate the
holddown bolt postion.
34. If you use the Gold-N-Rod pushrod option, do the
following: Cut the red 48" housing into two 17"
lengths. Cut the yellow pushrod into two 19"
lengths. Assemble the pushrods and the Dubro
Aileron Ball-Link Connector into one continuous
pushrod. Slide the pushrod through the holes in the
ribs and center in the wing. Slide the housings over
the pushrod until 1/8" extends past W2. Glue the
housings to the ribs, but leave the housings at W2
free to "float".
35. Using the same technique as the top sheeting, cut
5" sections of 1/16 x 4 x 36 balsa sheets and 5"
sections of 1/16 x 3 x 36 balsa sheets and edge
glue. Sheet the outer sections of the center section.
36. Trim the sheeting flush with W2, and trim and sand
the trailing edge even with the top sheeting.
37. Add 1/8 x ¼ spacers to W2 to support the bottom
center sheeting, just as you did with the top.
38. Cut three 3 ½" sections from 1/16 x 4 x 36 balsa
sheet, and a 3 1/2" section 1" long from spare 1/16"
sheeting. Edge glue these pieces.
39. Sand the edges of this sheet to fit snugly in the cen-
ter section. Glue the sheet in place.
40. Trim and sand the sheets at the trailing edge, W4,
and the joined edges.
41. Cut both the top and bottom sheets as shown to
allow for servo fit.
42. Cut out the slots for the flap linkage.
43. Cut out the slots for the wire gear legs.

shown on the plans.

Glue one of these spars to the Ply spar, aligning it
