Assembling the Fuselage
To remove the pieces, gently flex the balsa sheets until the pieces fall out.
You may find that you need to carefully trim the extra pieces of wood that
originally held the piece to the sheet.
Press the T nuts into the front former and the landing gear mount. You will need to
1.
hammer the T nuts fully in.
Place the second and third formers into the fuselage bottom, along with the landing
2.
gear mount and the two 1/16 ply former doublers. Ensure that the formers are
perpendicular to the bottom sheet. Glue with thick CA or, preferably, epoxy to
withstand the landing loads.
Position the rest of the bulkheads on to the fuselage bottom. Ensure the bulkheads
3.
are well seated and perpendicular to the bottom sheet and glue with thin CA.
