1. From the 2" x 9" [50mm x 230mm] hinge material, cut

out 16 hinges, 3/4" x 1" each [19mm x 25mm].

❏ ❏

2. Insert a T-pin through the center of 4 hinges. Trial

fit the 4 hinges into the right wing panel, making sure the
T-pin is flush against the wing.

❏ ❏

3. Test fit the right aileron to the right wing. The aileron

should be tight against the T-pins, with no more than a 1/32"
gap at any point. When satisfied with the fit, remove the

T-pins and attach the aileron by applying 6 drops of thin CA
to each side of each hinge. After the glue has cured, flex the
aileron back and forth a few times to loosen up the hinges.
Pull on the aileron to make sure that the aileron is firmly
attached to the wing.

❏ ❏

4. Using the photo as a guideline, locate the servo bay

in the bottom of the right wing panel. Cut the MonoKote
1/16" to the inside of the edges of the servo tray. Using a
MonoKote Covering Iron or Trim Tool, iron the edges down
into the servo tray. NOTE: It is important that you securely
iron down the edges to avoid the possibility of the covering
“flapping” and peeling off.

❏ ❏

5. Using a dime for size reference and a hobby knife,

cut a hole in the BOTTOM of the wing parallel to the hole in
the root rib and 1/2" from the root rib.
