- Glue the centre rib 3.1 to one wing panel, checking that it is
flush all round.
- Slide the receiver battery 3.2 into place, running the cable out
of the wing.
- The next step is to glue the wing panels together, and this
must be done flat on the building board.
- Pin down the jig strip „HL" in the central area.
- Temporarily hold the wing panels together over the plan and
trim the central area if necessary to obtain a close fit.
- Glue the wing panels together using white glue, checking
carefully that the ribs meet up neatly, with all edges flush.
- Place the complete wing back on the building board and pin
down the trailing edge. Hold the parts together at the
centreline with clothes pegs and allow the glue to cure
completely.

- Glue the webbing pieces 4.1 to the spars 3.3 and 3.9 and the
appropriate ribs as shown on the plan and as described for
parts 2.6. Remove the wing from the building board.
- The next step is to prepare the receiving system. Cut down
the servo output arms 4.2 for the servos 4.3 as shown on the
plan.
- Connect the receiving system components ready to use.
Switch on the transmitter and activate the V-mixer. Note: the
V-mixer must be switched on permanently when the
model is in the air. Check that the transmitter trims are at
centre, so that the servos are at their true neutral.
- Fit the servo output arms on the servos as shown in the plan
view and the detail drawing "X". They must point vertically
down when fitted.
- Fit the output screws to secure the servo output arms.
- Glue the servos in the position shown in the plan view using
a little epoxy. Check that the output arms protrude through
the centre of the slots in the bottom sheeting.

- Remove the wing from the building board.
- Trim the bottom spar 3.3 to fit and glue it in place flush with
the mainspar 1.2.
- Trim the bottom sheeting panels 3.4 - 3.6 to fit in turn, and
glue them in place. Check that the battery cable and switch
openings are on the same side.
- Trim the rib capstrips 3.7 and the sheeting panel 3.8 to fit as
shown on the plan, and glue them to the structure.
- Locate the marked hole positions in the centre rib and drill
them 4 mm Ø.
- Pin down the wing on the building board again, with the
jig strip „HL" in place, then trim the top spar 3.9 to fit and
glue it in place.

- Glue the support 4.4 to the inside of the sheeting, with the
openings exactly in line.
- Install the switch 4.5 and the charge socket holder 4.6.
- Secure the switch with a drop of epoxy; this allows you to
remove the switch bezel prior to covering the wing.
- Insert the switch harness charge socket in the holder 4.6.
- Connect the entire receiving system, and stick the receiver
4.7 in place with a few drops of epoxy. Keep the glue well
away from the crystal socket.
- Cut small holes in the wingribs for the receiver aerial, and
deploy the flexible aerial along the length of the wing. Apply
a small drop of glue to the end of the aerial to prevent it
slipping out of place.
- Rotate the servo output arms to the rear so that they are out
of the way when you sand and cover the wing.
- Trim the following parts to fit and glue them in place as
described for the underside of the wing: the top sheeting
panels 4.8 - 4.10, the rib capstrips 4.11 and the sheeting 4.12.
- Sand the completed wing overall, taking particular care to
maintain the correct airfoil section at the leading edge.
