For the following steps start with the left wing panel

so your progress will match the photos.

6. Test fit the assembled wing joiner into the wing

panel, then the center section. Be certain the joiner is

installed upright with the arrow pointed up. The tapered end

with the horizontal arrow points toward the wing tip. Also

make sure that the joiner slides in all the way, allowing a

flush fit of the wing panel and the center section with no

gaps. If necessary, sand the joiner for a good fit.

7. Securely tie the strings for the aileron extensions

together as indicated in the above photo.

8. Remove the joiner. Using 30-minute epoxy,

thoroughly coat the inside of both pockets where the joiner

fits. Coat the joiner half that goes into the left wing panel. Then

insert the joiner into the left wing panel. Coat the protruding

end of the joiner, the root rib on the wing panel and the root

rib of the center section with epoxy. Join the left wing panel

and the center section together. Be sure to pull the strings

through as you slide the wing panel together with the center

section. Be careful not to get any epoxy on the strings.

9. Wipe away excess epoxy that squeezes out from

between the joint with paper towels saturated with alcohol.

Use masking tape on the top and bottom to hold the joint

tight as shown. Be certain the root ribs align accurately. Do

not disturb the wing until the epoxy has fully cured.

10. Repeat this process to glue the right wing panel in

place in the same manner.

Mount the Motors

1. Install the two motors onto the motor mount face

plates using the four supplied 2.5mm x 7.5mm screws and

2.5mm washers.

2. . This is a good time to test the motors. Do this before

installing the propellers. First make sure the transmitter and

ESC switches are turned OFF. Using the above picture,

connect the wires from the ESC to all of the labeled

components (motors, receiver, etc.). Switch on the

transmitter and make sure the throttle stick is at idle. Turn on

the ESC switch. Slowly advance the throttle stick to full

throttle. Move the throttle stick back to the idle position. The

system is now engaged and operational. Advance the

throttle stick and verify that both motors are working.

3. Tie the strings already installed in the wing onto the

connectors. Then place the wires into the center section
