PARTS LISTING.

FUSELAGE ASSEMBLY

1) Fuselage.

WING ASSEMBLY

1) Right wing half with pre-installed

aileron.

2) Left winghalf withpre-installedaileron.

TAIL SECTION ASSEMBLY

1) Vertical stabilizer with pre-installed

rudder.

Instruction Manual.

The control surfaces, including the

ailerons, 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 using a high-quality

thin C/A glue.

2)Removeeach hingefromthewing panel

and aileron and place a T-pin in the center of

each hinge. Slide each hinge into the aileron

untiltheT-pin is snugagainsttheaileron.This

will help ensure an equal amount of hinge is

oneithersideofthe hingelinewhentheaileron

is mounted to the wing panel.

HINGING THE RUDDER .

Note:

T-pin.

3) Slide the aileron on the wing panel until

there is only a slight gap. The hinge is now

centered on the wing panel and aileron.

Remove the T-pins and snug the aileron

against the wing panel.Agap of 1/64” or less

shouldbemaintainedbetween the wing panel

andaileron.

1) Carefully remove the aileron from one

of the wing panels. Note the position of the

hinges.

4)Deflect the aileron and completely

saturate each hinge with thin C/A glue. The

aileronsfrontsurface shouldlightlycontact 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.

Thehingeis constructedof aspecial

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.

Note:

C/Aglue.

KA8-B Instruction Manual.

8)Afterbothailerons aresecurelyhinged,

firmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to

make sure the hinges are securely glued and

cannot be pulled out. Do this by carefully

applying medium pressure, trying to separate

the aileron from the wing panel. Use caution

not to crush the wing structure.

7) Repeat this process with the other wing

panel, securely hinging the aileron in place.

Workthe aileronup anddown several

times to “work in” the hinges and

check for proper movement.

Note:

6) Using C/A remover/debonder and a

papertowel,removeany excess C/Agluethat

may have accumulated on the wing or in the

aileronhingearea.

5)Turn the wing paneloverand deflect the

aileron in the opposite direction from the

opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each

hinge,making surethattheC/Apenetratesinto

both the aileron and wing panel.

1) Locate the hardware necessary to install

the control horns for the ailerons.

2) Position the control horn on the bottom of

the aileron. You will see pre-drill hole 6mm for

the horn mounting screw on the aileron.

3) Place epoxy into hole. This will harden the

threads and prevent the crews from pulling

loose.

4) Thread a control horn end with aluminum

washer, lock nut until the top edge of the end is

9mm from the vase of the horn as shown.
