Section 1a:
Assembling the Quad Flap Wing
Step 4a. Deflect the aileron and flap and completely saturate
each hinge with thin CA glue. The aileron and flap's front surface
should lightly contact the wing during this procedure. Ideally,
when the hinges are glued in place, a 1 /32" gap or less will be
maintained throughout the length of the aileron and flap.
Step 5a. Turn the wing panel over and deflect the aileron and
flap in the opposite direction from the previous step. Apply thin
CA glue to each aileron hinge, making sure the CA penetrates
into the aileron, flap, and the wing.
Step 6a. Using CA remover/debonder and a paper towel,
remove any excess CA glue that may have accumulated on
the wing aileron or flap hinge area.

Step 7a. Repeat Steps 1A through 6A for the opposite
wing panel.
Step 8a. After both the aileron and flap control surfaces are
securely hinged, firmly grasp the wing, flap, and aileron to
check that they are securely glued and cannot be pulled apart.
To do this, apply medium pressure to try to separate the control
surfaces from the wing. Use caution to be certain you don't
crush the wing structure.
Step 9a. Move the control surfaces up and down to "work in"
the hinges and check for proper movement.
Important: If any binding has developed between the
control surfaces,it must be removed. You may have to trim
away some covering or balsa to make each control surface
move freely.
