Wing FWD Pin

This carbon fiber leading edge pin should be installed on Bandit ARF's that are intended for high
performance i.e. 19 + pound thrust engines. This pin and receptacle should be checked for security
following a hard landing.
Use a ball end Perma-Grit cutter (BVM #RF-8C) to flatten the
bead of glue from this area. A 90° Dremel tool is required.
Make a notch to accept the pin and shape the pin base as
necessary to allow the pin to protrude at 90° to the wing flange,
check front and top views. Center of pin is located 1" aft of the
leading edge. The location is not critical. The hole in the fuse will
be according to the pin location. Trim away any protrusion of
flanges on wing root that interferes with fit to fuse side.
Use Zap-A-Gap to tack the pin in position.
