Step 3
Allow the glue to fully cure for at least 6 hours. When
cured, work each hinge throughout its full motion several
times using your hands. This will break free any epoxy
that may have found its way into the hinge joint. Move the
hinge throughout its full travel until no resistance is felt.
This may take as many as 40 or 50 times.
Step 4
Mix one ounce of 30-minute epoxy or use Pacer PT-55
hinge glue. Place a sufficient amount of glue in each of
the hinge pockets in one wing panel.
Step 5
Carefully attach the aileron to the wing, making sure the
hinges are inserted in their respective hinge pockets.
Press the aileron and wing together such that less than a
1/64" (.5mm) hinge line gap exists between the aileron
and wing. The bevels should virtually touch. Use a paper
towel and rubbing alcohol to wipe away any visible epoxy
around the hinges.
Step 6
Double-check the hinge gap and allow the glue to fully
cure for at least 6 hours.
Step 7
When fully cured, move each control surface throughout
its travel range several times to break away any epoxy in
the hinge. Be sure to deflect the surface fully.
