❏ 16. Glue the laser-cut 1/16" [1.6mm] plywood landing
gear mount into position, followed by the laser-cut 1/32"
[.8mm] balsa mid fuse bottom.
❏ 17. Remove the fuse from the plan. Sand the bottom
sheeting even with the fuse sides.
❏ 18. Glue strips of leftover 1/16" [1.6mm] balsa to one side
of the laser-cut 1/16" [1.6mm] plywood firewall across the
holes for the motor mount screws. Drill 1/16" [1.6mm] holes
through the laser-cut marks in the firewall for the gearbox
mounting screws.
❏ 19. Glue the firewall between the fuse sides using the
lines marked earlier as a guide. Glue the laser-cut 1/32"
[.8mm] balsa forward fuse bottom into position.
Note: The forward fuse bottom is supplied oversize. Trim it
so that it butts against the rear of the firewall as shown on
the plan.
❏ 20. Glue the laser-cut 1/16" [1.6mm] balsa former tops
F1T through F6T to the top of the fuselage where shown on
the plan.
❏ 1. If you’ve built the wing with ailerons, remove the
bottom horizontal brace from former F4 to accommodate
the aileron servo.
❏ 2. Lay the wing on your workbench or a sturdy platform
and place the fuselage on the wing. Place a weight on top
of the fuse to hold it down and keep it from moving. Position
the stab on the fuse and place a small weight on top of it to
hold it down. Stand a few feet behind the model and view the
horizontal alignment of the stab and wing. If the stab and
wing are parallel, proceed to the next step. If the stab and
wing are not parallel, carefully sand the high fuse side to
bring the stab into alignment with the wing.
❏ 3. Take the fuse off the wing and place it on the plan,
accurately aligning it over the top view. Place a straightedge
on the plan, accurately aligning it with the dashed line
