Stage 2, joining the wing panels
- White glue should be used for this stage.
- The following parts are required to join the wings: the root
facing ribs F1, the 12 x 12 mm spruce wing dihedral brace
F20 and the 5 mm Ø beech dowel locating peg.
- Start by assembling the wing panels "dry" (no glue) to
check that everything fits snugly.
Fig. 25
- Glue together the two root facing ribs F1 with their edges
flush, at the same time gluing the dowel F21 in place cen-
trally.

Assembly and operating instructions
Figs. 26 to 28
- Insert the spruce dihedral brace F20 in one wing panel,
and fit the two ribs F1 and the beech dowel F21 on it, fol-
lowed by the second wing panel: the wing panels should
meet accurately in the centre, without gaps, and must not
be out of line or twisted relative to each other.
- When you are satisfied that this is the case, dismantle the
parts again, apply plenty of white glue to all the joint sur-
faces, and re-assemble the components in a single pro-
cedure. Ensure that parts F11 and F20 are glued securely
over their full area. Clamp the wing panels together in the

centre and at the trailing edge, and leave the glue to set
hard.
- When the joints are cured, sand the whole wing overall to
obtain a smooth, even finish.
- Drill a 6 mm Ø hole in the root ribs F1 at the marked point
for the wing retainer screw.
The basic wing structure is now complete. Work on it resu-
mes when the fuselage and tail panels have been built.
