Before Starting Assembly
Before beginning the assembly of your model, remove
each part from its bag for inspection. Closely inspect the
fuselage, wing panels, rudder and stabilizer for damage. If
you find any damaged or missing parts, contact the place
of purchase.
If you find any wrinkles in the covering, use a heat gun
(HAN100) and covering glove (HAN150) or covering iron
(HAN101) with a sealing iron sock (HAN141) to remove
them. Use caution while working around areas where the
colors overlap to prevent separating the colors.

 1. Separate the stabilizer and elevator. Use a small piece
of low-tack tape to mark one side of the stabilizer and
elevator so they can be repositioned easily. Set the six CA
hinges aside at this time.
 2. Use a pin vise and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill
a hole in the center of each hinge slot. This will provide
a tunnel for the CA to wick into, providing a better bond
between the wood and hinge when they are glued in position.
Prepare both the stabilizer and elevator at this time.
 3. Remove the canopy from the fuselage by sliding it
forward then lifting up at the rear of the canopy. The rear
is held in position using magnets and is also keyed to the
fuselage, while the front is held in place using pins that
extend into the bulkhead.
 4. Locate the carbon wing tube. Slide the tube into one
of the wing panels. It will slide in easily, so do not force it
further than it will easily slide.
