HINGING THE AILERON.
Note : e control surfaces, including the ailer-
ons, elevators, and rudder, are prehinged with
hinges installed, but the hinges are not glued in
place. It is imperative that you properly adhere
the hinges in place per the steps that follow us-
ing a high-quality thin C/A glue.
1) Carefully remove the aileron from one
of the wing panels. Note the position of the
hinges.
2) Remove each hinge from the wing panel
and aileron and place a T-pin in the center of
each hinge. Slide each hinge into the wing
panel until the T-pin is snug against the wing
panel. is will help ensure an equal amount
of hinge is on either side of the hinge line
when the aileron is mounted to the aileron.
3) Slide the wing panel on the aileron until
there is only a slight gap. e hinge is now
centered on the wing panel and aileron. Re-
move the T-pins and snug the aileron against
the wing panel. A gap of 1/64” or less should
be maintained between the wing panel and
aileron.
NOTE : e hinge is constructed of a spe-
cial material that allows the C/A to wick
or penetrate and distribute throughout
the hinge, securely bonding it to the wood
structure of the wing panel and aileron.
4) Deect the aileron and completely satu-
rate each hinge with thin C/A glue. e ailer-
ons front surface should lightly contact the
wing during this procedure. Ideally, when
the hinges are glued in place, a 1/64” gap or
less will be maintained throughout the lengh
of the aileron to the wing panel hinge line.

5) Turn the wing panel over and deect the
aileron in the opposite direction from the
opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each
hinge, making sure that the C/A penetrates
into both the aileron and wing panel.
6) Using C/A remover/debonder and a paper
towel, remove any excess C/A glue that may
have accumulated on the wing or in the
aileron hinge area.
7) Repeat this process with the other wing
panel, securely hinging the aileron in place.
8) Aer both ailerons are securely hinged,
rmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to
make sure the hinges are securely glued and
cannot be pulled out. Do this by carefully ap-
plying medium pressure, trying to separate
the aileron from the wing panel. Use caution
not to crush the wing structure.
Work the aileron up and down sev-
eral times to “work in” the hinges
and check for proper movement.

blocks and space it from the hatch. Use a
pencil to mark the mounting hole loca-
tions on the blocks.
2) Use drill bit in a pin vise to drill the
mouting holes in the blocks.
4) Use dental oss to secure the connec-
tion so they cannot become unplugged.
5) Secure the servo to the aileron hatch
using Phillips screwdriver and the screws
provided with the servo.
6) Apply 1-2 drops of thin C/A to each
of the mounting tabs. Allow the C/A to
cure without using accelerator.

of the mounting holes. Allow the C/A to
