Great Planes BLT Park Flyer Kit- GPMA0001 - Manual (Page 15)

❏ 1. From the remaining 1/8" (3.2mm) hardwood dowel cut
two wing hold downs 2" (50.8mm) long. Use a sanding bar
to round the ends of the wing hold downs.
❏ 2. Center the wing hold downs in the wing pylon and use
CA to secure them.
❏ 3. Mount the wing, centered on the wing pylon, using #32
rubberbands. Center the stabilizer at the aft end of the
fuselage so that the TE of the stabilizer is 1/8" forward of the
aft end of the fuse and the LE joint is centered on the top of
the fuse. From a few feet behind the fuselage, view the
stabilizer, checking that the stabilizer is parallel with the
wing. If not, remove the stabilizer and check that the
fuselage is not twisted. If it is, dampen the fuse slightly and
twist it in the opposite direction until the wood dries.
Recheck the stabilizer/wing alignment. When satisfied with
the fit, use thin CA to glue the stab to the fuse.
❏ 4. With the TE of the fin flush with the aft end of the fuse,
use CA to glue the fin along the center line of the stab,
perpendicular to the top of the stab.
❏ 5. Position the rudder as shown. On the right side of the
rudder, use clear cellophane tape along the joint between
the rudder and the fin. Attach the elevator to the stab by
applying cellophane tape along the top joint.
❏ 6. Glue the die-cut 1/16" (1.6mm) plywood rudder and
elevator horns in the slots in the rudder and elevator. Note:
Use a pin to enlarge the holes for the pushrods, if needed.
