  • Page 1 84” WING SPAN MESSERSCHMITT BF-109 (COPYRIGHT PROTECTED 2014) ALL RIGHTS RESERVED...
  • Page 2 MEISTER 84” ME-109 SIERRA GEAR UPDATE PLEASE NOTE: THE MAIN GEAR MOUNTING PLATE FROM SIERRA IS NOT SQUARE. YOU HAVE TO ROUND THE INSIDE EDGE OF THE WOODEN RAILS SO THAT THEY FIT FLUSH AGAINST THE RETRACT UNIT.
  • Page 3 B1 Assembly 1. Join the FS-2 and FS-2a using a straight edge along the top of these parts. 2. When ready to make up the other side, assemble it right on top of the first side thus assuring that both sides are exactly the same. Use wax paper between the sides so they do not glue together.
  • Page 4 6. Install ¼ x ¼ stringers to bottom of the assembly Here is a group of drawings showing the assembly of fuse sides to B-1 7. Set the B-1 assembly on a reasonably flat surface. Use a level to assure this. Check the fuse sides by looking at the assembly from the side.
  • Page 5 Joining the Nose Assembly and B-1 B-1 is already in place and tacked on the table. Slide the nose assembly in place. Using clamps or rubber bands hold the nose in place. Two bricks are handy to hold the sides against the F-3 and to hold F-3 over the centerline.
  • Page 6 Install four ¼ x ¼ stringers between F-1’s & F-1A’s. The two upper most will butt against F-1’s (no notches). Install the four wing saddle doublers now. When installing the four wing saddle doublers, be prepared to pull the sides in against the F-4 & F-5. Use tri stock to help hold it when gluing to the F-4 and F-5.
  • Page 7: Wing Assembly

    Wing Assembly Note: This wing design has a flat bottom airfoil thus there’s no need for jigs, etc. However, you will need a flat surface to build your wing. You can get a 24” to 30” hollow door at your local home depot type store.
  • Page 8 6a. Install the wing tongue hold down plate between W-1 & W-2. The W-1 and the wing tongue are notched to fit each other. The front of the wing tongue plate is to be flush with the front of rib W-2. You will see that the wing tongue plate is at an angle.
  • Page 9 After you have the second half at the same point, its time to install the retracts. With your wing upside down, start by taking your landing gear plate which maybe oversized and sand it to fit in between W-2 & W-3. It should slide down onto the W-2 & W-3 doublers.
  • Page 10 15. Now you have finished sheeting the wing. Mark off on back of the wing the ailerons and flaps (If you are going to use them). Using an ink pen, make your marks. Then mark ½” on each side of the mark.
  • Page 11 JOINING THE WING TO THE FUSALAGE 1. You can join the wing to the fuse before or after the wing is glassed. That’s your choice. The fuse should not be glasses. Start with the fuse on its nose. Slide the wing tongue into the wing tongue hole in the fuse. Now you may have to sand a little of the wing saddle to get the wings trailing edge to fit flush with the bottom of the fuse at former F-6 2.
  • Page 12 2. You can build the elevator one or two ways. You can place E-1 on the building board and build it with a flat bottom airfoil. You do this by making the leading edge out of ¾’ x 3/8”. Then place the ribs on top and sand to a sharp edge.
  • Page 13 BUILDING THE VERTICAL 1. Build over the plans on a flat surface. Take F-1 and apply the ½” x ¾” leading and the ¾” SQ front post. 2. Now slide the horizontal in place. Making sure that everything is squared up and on the centerline then glue in place. 3.

  • Page 15 ENGINE The prototype used the Quadra Q42. A Zenoah G-38 is also a good choice for the following reasons; both have rear exhaust, both have good factory mufflers and both fit inside conveniently. A Zenoah G-45 is recommended for flyers that would like more vertical performance and higher speed. The best choice for all out performance is the DA-50 swinging a 3-blade prop.
