Note: This model is covered with a very thin layer of film

which is then painted with a special lightweight paint to

conserve weight. Avoid the use of tape to help position the

fuselage components during assembly. Also, Do Not

attempt to remove any of the trim markings as this will

damage the painted surface beneath.

Also, for simplicity, all of the carbon rods in this ARF are of

the same diameter. When identifying the rods for the

corresponding step, only the lengths are mentioned.

❏ 1. Using epoxy, join the two wing halves together,

making sure to align the root sections.

❏ 2.Epoxy the 17-3/48" [451 mm] carbon wing joiner tube

into the slot on the bottom of the wing. Make sure it is fully

seated in the slot.

❏ 3. Epoxy the foam inserts into the wing slot over the

carbon joiner. Make sure they are fully seated against the

joiner.The foam inserts may not be completely flush with the

bottom of the wing.

❏ 1. Insert the wing into the fuselage.Be sure that the wing

is centered and square by making sure all measurements

are equal as shown in the sketch.

❏ 2. Trace along the fuselage sides on the top and bottom

of the wing with a felt-tip pen or a pencil.

❏ 3. Slide the wing out just enough to see the entire area

covered by the fuselage. Remove the covering from the wing

using a hobby knife 3/32" [2 mm] inside the marks you made.

Apply a thin layer of epoxy and slide the wing into place.Use the

marks from the previous step to align the wing. Clean up any

excess glue with a paper towel. DO NOT use alcohol or any

other solvent for cleanup as the paint finish will be affected.
