FUSELAGE ASSEMBLY:
1.
Remove the fuselage side parts from the 1/8" Balsa sheet. They are all on the same sheet. Match up all of the side pieces and make
sure you have 2 of each one. If you only have one of a part, double check the sheet and find it. The first side you will be assembling
is the LEFT side over the plans, with the text facing up. (This way, the text will be on the inside when you assemble the fuselage.
Assemble the parts over the plan sheet as shown in the image below. If a part seems tight, double check and make sure you have
the right one and it is oriented correctly. If, after double checking it is too tight, then lightly sand the mating surfaces until it fits
nicely. Secure all joints with thin CA. Lay wax paper or plastic wrap over the completed left side and assemble the right side parts
over it. Secure all joints with thin CA.
2.
Remove the 3/32" Balsa F6 part from the sheet. Get the rare earth magnet from the bag. Turn F6 so the text is facing the work
surface. Press the magnet into the hole as shown in the image below. Use thin CA to secure the magnet in place.
3.
Assemble the parts to make complete 1/8" F2, 1/16" F10, and 1/8" F7 formers over the plans. AFTER the parts are aligned
properly, secure with thin CA. make sure you get a good glue bond with the parts.
4.
Remove the 1/8" Balsa F-28 parts from the sheet. Remove the 4-40 T-Nuts from the parts bag. Set the F-28 parts on the work
surface with the text facing up. Press the T-nuts into the holes in the parts, making sure they are in as far as they can go. Secure the
nuts around the outside using thin CA. Be careful not to get glue n the threads.
