JOINING THE WING HALVES
1. Mix a generous amount of 30 minute epoxy.
Working with only one wing half for now, apply
a thin layer of epoxy inside the carton dihedral
brace tube and to only half of the dihedral
brace. Make sure to cover the dihedral brace
around as well as the sides, and use enough
epoxy to fill any gaps.
2. Slide the dihedral brace into the carton tube up
to the center line. Remove any excess epoxy
before it dries using a paper towel and rubbing
alcohol. Allow the epoxy to cure before
proceeding.
3. Once the epoxy has cured, trial fit both wing
halves together to double check that the wing
halves still fit correctly.
4. Mix a generous amount of 30 minute epoxy.
Apply a thin layer of epoxy to the exposed half
of the dihedral brace, the inside of the carton
dihedral brace tube and the entire surface of
both root ribs. Make sure to use enough epoxy
to fill any gaps.
5. Slide the two wing halves together and carefully
align them at the leading and trailing edges. Wipe
away any excess epoxy using a paper towel and
rubbing alcohol. Use masking tape to hold the
two wing halves in place until the epoxy cures.
6. When the epoxy has fully cured, double check
the center section joint. If any gaps are present,
mix a small amount of 30 minute epoxy and
carefully fill any remaining gaps. Remove the
excess epoxy using a paper towel and rubbing
alcohol. Allow the epoxy to fully cure before
proceeding.
7. Apply the trim tape to the center section of the
wings where they join.

on the opposite aileron.
INSTALLING THE AILERON LINKAGES
1. Working with the aileron linkage for now, thread
one nylon clevis at least 14 turns onto one of
the 2mm x 180mm threaded wires.
2. Attach the clevis to the outer hole in the control
horn. Install a silicone tube on the clevis
3. Locate one nylon servo arm, and using wire
