1. Unroll the plan sheet. Re-roll it inside out to make it lie flat.
❏
2. Remove all parts from the box. As you do, figure out the
name of each part by comparing it to the plans, the die page and
the parts list. Save all leftovers. If any of the parts are difficult to
remove from their die sheets, do not force them. Instead, cut
around the part with a hobby knife. After removing the parts,
lightly sand the edges to remove any die-cutting irregularities.
❏
1. Place the wing portion of the plan over your flat
building board. Cover the wing plan with Great Planes Plan
Protector or wax paper.
❏
2. Locate the die-cut 1/16" [1.6mm] balsa ribs W1 through
W4, the main web (MW) and the die-cut 1/16" [1.6mm]
plywood parts.
❏
3. Insert the right end of the main web into the opening
in rib W1 as shown.
❏ ❏
4. Place rib W1 into the notch shown on the plan by
twisting it into position on the main web. W1 should be lined up
with the spar notch. The top of the rib is the side with two spar
notches. Be certain the rib is on the main web with these
two notches up. Glue W1 perpendicular to the main web.
❏ ❏
5. Using the same procedure, insert W3 onto the main
web as shown on the plan. Glue W3 perpendicular to the
main web.
❏
6. Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 for the left side of the wing.
❏
7. Locate the two 1/8" x 1/4" x 36" [3.2 x 6.4 x 910mm]
balsa sticks and cut them to 35" [889mm] in length. These
make up the top and bottom spar.
❏
8. Pin one of the spars in place over the plan. This will be
the bottom spar.
❏
9. Place the main web with the two W1 and two W3 ribs
onto the bottom spar. Carefully align the ribs in place over
the plan. Be sure that each rib is perpendicular to the
building surface.
❏
10. Glue rib W4 to the main web at each end of the
bottom wing spar.
❏
11. Glue each of the W2 half-ribs to the main web.
❏
12. Make sure that ribs W1, W3, W4 and the main web
are in contact with the bottom spar. Glue the ribs and the
main web to the bottom spar with thin CA.
