==== Fuselage (glider version) ==== * Trial fit the parts of the fuselage β no glue yet! Sand as necessary to obtain perfect fit. (Fig. 5) * Glue the ply reinforcement and balsa triangle stocks to the fuselage sides. Glue together the canopy. Glue the canopy magnets before final sanding. Please do not forget to check and mark the polarity of magnets first β they must attract each other. (Fig. 6+7) * Glue together the front part of the fuselage. Do not forget to sand the edges of the formers to the shape. (Fig. 8) * Epoxy the wing nut plate with nuts already glued and the tail boom holding formers in place. (Fig. 7+8) * Glue the nose cone parts in place and sand them to the required shape using the supplied template. (Fig. 8+9) * Partially cut (ca 1 mm deep) and crack the fuselage sides along the rear edge of the rear fuselage former in order to create a conical transition between the fuselage and the tail boom (the cut line is to be soaked with thin CA before the final sanding). Slide the tail boom fairing ring and the rear fuselage ring onto the tail boom tube (on the end without notches). Insert the tail boom into the fuselage (no glue yet β it will be glued only after the final sanding and covering of the fuselage). Trial fit all the parts and sand carefully to obtain a tight fit; the fairing matching the rear edge of the fuselage. The rear fuselage ring tack glue to the fuselage (do not glue it to the tail boom) and the fairing ring glue to the tail boom. (Fig. 10+11) * Glue the upper and lower sheeting of the fuselage; do not forget to epoxy the tow hook plate. (Fig. 9+10+11) * Attach the canopy to the fuselage and sand everything smooth. (Fig. 9+10+11) * Locate the towhook. Cut the opening for it in the lower part of the fuselage and drill the holes for the fixing screws. (Fig. 12) * Assemble (no glue yet) the horizontal tailplane pylon consisting of the Lite Ply core with tailplane fixing nuts (M4 front, M3 rear), 4 mm balsa sides and Lite Ply tailplane seat. Insert the pylon into the corresponding notch in the fuselage. Trim if necessary, open up the elevator push rod tunnel. Once satisfied, epoxy together the Lite Ply core with the balsa sides and sand to shape using the supplied Lite ply jig. Epoxy the tailplane seat in place. (Fig. 47A+47B+47C)
