WING CONSTRUCTION

Aileron Installation

2.

Locate the pre-cut aileron hinge slots in both

the top and the bottom wings. Using a hobby

knife (#11 blade), slide the blade into each of

the slots to make sure they are cleanly cut.

Repeat this process with the ailerons, mak-

ing sure all hinge slots are clean.

3.

Place a straight pin into the center of each of

four Jet Hinges.

3.

Slide four hinges into the hinge slots on one

side of a wing The straight pin will prevent

the hinges from going further than halfway

into the wing.

4.

Select one of the ailerons and insert the

exposed half of each hinge into the aileron

slots. Slide the aileron toward the wing until

no gap remains between the aileron and the

wing.

When satisfied with the alignment, remove

the straight pins, being sure to keep the

aileron tight to the wing. You may wish to

apply a few pieces of masking tape to keep

the pieces in place.

6.

Keeping the aileron and wing in position,

apply 3 or 4 drops of Instant thin CA to the

small exposed area of each hinge.

Turn the wing assembly over and again

apply 3 or 4 drops of thin CA to the exposed

hing surface.

Allow to dry for 10 minutes before flexing the

aileron.

7.

Repeat the above steps for each of the other

ailerons.

NOTE: Remember that the following pictures may

not exactly match the hardware you are using.

Always check the manufacturer’s instructions when

installing radio equipment.

5.

Carefully check the alignment of the aileron,

making sure it is flush with the end of the

wing.
