The ply support plate serves two functions; it supports the elevator control rod and serves as a launching handle once the mating ply support piece is installed. Assemble the control rod mechanism as per the instructions and glue it to the support plate. Slide the handle onto the plate and secure with CA. Using the supplied glue, secure it to the bottom of the fuse.

Separate the Ailerons from the wings and hinge using the supplied paper hinges. Next using a screwdriver, make indention's on the wing and the fuse where they will join. This will allow the epoxy to seep into those holes and form a better bond. This is important so do not deviate! Using epoxy, spread an even coat on the two surfaces to be joined and then hold together until the epoxy sets up. I used 5 minute epoxy and worked on joining one surface at a time. The trick here is to keep the same amount of incidence on both wings. I would have preferred to see some mating nubs between the wings and fuse to help with alignment. There is a small shelf on the fuse for alignment, but it was difficult to keep the wing from sliding around while the epoxy set up.

The Elevator and Horizontal stabs are both depron. Each surface is formed from two separate pieces that must be joined together. Make an imprint using the elevator wire onto one half of the elevator piece. Apply some glue and sandwich the two halves together around the elevator wire. Some masking tape here helps to keep the pieces from sliding around. Then weigh them down until the glue sets up.

While the elevators are setting up, glue the two Horizontal stabs/fins together. Those are now glued onto the fuse ensuring they are kept at a 90 degree angle until dry.

The fiberglass wing spar is slid through the ply brace and then glued into the wing. The amount of rigidity that this provided surprised me.

Now that the control surfaces are complete, I moved forward with installing the servo's and linking them to the appropriate control surface.With the servo's centered and wrapped in masking tape, they are glued into the wing and fuse. The servo extensions are then routed through pre formed channels in the foam. You will have to bore a hole into the RX area on either side to get the extensions inside the fuse.

With that done, epoxy the motor stick onto the rear of the ply plate keeping the thrust line @ 0 degrees.

Final step was to cut and apply the decals. The decals feel like vinyl and go on exactly as indicated and hug those compound curves and steep angles very well.
