WOTS WOT - Instructions

STEP 44

Ensuring a gap-free hinge line and a 1mm gap between the elevator and tip,

hold the elevator halves level using strips of masking tape until the epoxy cures.

STEP 42

Insert two hinges into the rudder and two more in each elevator half, ensuring

they are located mid-way in their slots. Using thin cyano, pour a couple of

drops onto each hinge - above and below - ensuring the glue soaks into the

hinge and the surrounding wood.

STEP 45

Now add a couple of drops of thin cyano to the top and bottom of each hinge.

Make sure that the glue does not run through the hinge line onto the bottom

of the tail.

STEP 43

Protecting the rear of the tailplane with a strip of masking tape, apply epoxy

to each half of the wire elevator joiner and force it into the corresponding slots

and holes in the elevator halves. Slide the elevators into position ensuring that

the joiner and all four hinges enter their pre-cut slots in the tailplane.

STEP 46

Protecting the rear of the fuselage with a strip of masking tape, mix and apply

a small quantity of epoxy to the tailwheel wire. Force some into the slot and

hole in the rudder then slide the rudder in place making sure that both hinges

are located in their slots in the fin and that the tailwheel wire fits neatly into its

recess in the rudder. Wipe off any excess epoxy.

STEP 47

Ensure that the rudder is aligned to the top of the fin and there is free movement

left and right plus a gap-free hinge line. Now apply a couple of drops of thin

cyano to each side of each hinge taking care not to allow the adhesive to run

through the gap onto the other side of the model.
