40. Turn the wing upside-down. Using the slot in the
landing gear rail as a guide, cut the opening for the gear to
fit. Chamfer the torque block opening to allow the radius in
the landing gear leg to fit properly in the rail.
❏ ❏
41. Mount the gear leg with two plastic straps and
four #2 x 3/8" sheet metal screws, as shown on the plan.
❏
42. Go back to step one and build the left wing half over
the left wing plan.
❏
1. Using medium CA, laminate the three die-cut 1/8" ply
center spar joiners. This complete assembly is now called
the wing joiner.
❏
2. Glue the die-cut 1/8" ply center jig and tip jigs
together as shown.
❏
3. Temporarily fit the wing joiner into one wing half. From
the remaining piece of 1/16" x 3" balsa used to make the
shear webs, make a LE shear web that goes to the inboard
end of the spars. Glue the web to the spars. Do the same
for the other wing half. Note: Do not glue the joiner in yet.
❏
4. Fit the wing panels to the wing joiner and the die-cut
1/8" ply retract servo tray. Note: The retract servo tray will be
installed whether you are using retracts or fixed landing gear.
