2- Joining the wing
Before gluing:
- Draw the center line on the wing joiner.
- Trial fit each part before gluing . Be certain that there are no gaps.
If the parts will join, but with a gaps, sand or trim the parts a little at
a time until the parts meet exactly with no gaps.
- Check for the correct dihedral angle
Draw the center line
on the wing joiner

20- Rudder - Elevator
Push the elevator and its hinges into the hinge slots in
the trailing edge of the horizontal stabilizer. There
should be a minimal hinge gap and the end of the elevator
half should not rub against the horizontal stabilizer.
When satisfied with the and alignment, hinge the elevator
to the horizontal stabilizer using thin CA glue. Make
sure to apply a thin layer of CA glue to the top and bottom
of both hinges and to inside the hinge slots. Repeat the
previous procedures to hinge the second elevator to the
other side of the horizontal stabilizer.
Do the same way with the rudder.

Note: Cut out the stickers and apply them in the proper area. Do not peel the backing paper off all at once.
Peel off one corner of the backing and cut off with scissors.
Arrange sticker on model and when satisfied adhere the corner without backing.
Carefully peel back the rest of the backing while at the same time adhering the rest of the sticker.
Try not to make air bubbles, if there are some, carefully puncture sticker (center of bubble) but not model surface with the
tip of the knife or sharp pin and squeeze out the air.
At curves stretch sticker and apply a little heat so that no ceases occur.
Cut off the excess that is produced.
IMPORTANT: Please do not clean your model with pure alcohol, only use liquid soap with water or use glass cleaner to
clean on surface of your model to keep the colour not fade.
