OPITIONAL SPOILERS
Note: Since the spoiler installation is optional, none of the
hardware has been included.
❏ ❏
1. Use a hobby knife to cut a hole in the bottom of the wing
sheeting for the spoiler tubing to exit the wing as shown.
❏ ❏
2. Pull the end of the spoiler tubing out of the wing just far
enough to glue it in place using thick CA.
❏ ❏
3. Cut the covering all around the edge of the spoiler and
remove it from the wing panel.
❏ ❏
4. Tape the spoiler in position in the wing using a strip of
cellophane or vinyl tape or a strip of covering. The tape should be
flexible enough to allow the spoiler to close on its own. The tape
should also be replaced occasionally as it will eventually rip.
❏ ❏
5. Thread a 42" [1070mm] length of braided fishing line (not
included) through the spoiler tubing in the wing.
❏ ❏
6. Thread one end of the line through the small hole in the
spoiler horn and use a piece of a round toothpick to hold the line in
the horn. Allow about 1/2" [13mm] to hang out the other side of the
horn for fine adjustments. It may be necessary to drill out the
spoiler control horn using a 3/32" [2.5mm] drill bit. Trim the shear
web to allow the toothpick to pass through without interference.
❏ ❏
7. Glue a small lead weight on the bottom side of the spoiler
to help it close. 1/4 – 1/2 oz. is usually enough since the airflow will
keep the spoilers closed when the plane is flying. Repeat steps 1
through 7 for the opposite spoiler.
❏
8. Mount the wing onto the fuselage and pull the ends of the
spoiler strings up to the spoiler servo. Position the spoiler servo
horn at the rearward end of its swing and wrap one spoiler string
around the screw in the horn. With the spoilers held closed, apply
a drop of CA to glue the string to itself, forming a small loop.
Remove that string and do the same steps to the other string. The
two strings should be the same length (be careful not to glue the
two strings together) and the spoilers should open and close
together. Adjustments can be made at the toothpick end if needed.
