I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Image Comments trotro 24-Aug-07 16:54 poppy can u help me please... 1-am i supose to cut the leading edge in 5 parts? 2-how am i supese to make it stay in the position for gas free flight... 3-what is flush fit...? 4- those block w/dimensioin should i make it..? 5 what is dihedral? trotro 24-Aug-07 16:58 sorry for all the questions but my english its not so good, and the plans on this plane are complicated..i read all the instructions but i didnt undestand some terms... poppy 24-Aug-07 17:46 When leading edge is cut, bevel as shown in Fig.3. Glue the 3 center pieces together level. In fig.5 cut trailing edge. Keep edges pinned level as shown in fig.2. Cement all ribs in place. Find on the plans the correct dihedral for free-flite. Cut 2 blocks for that size, unpin outer wing panels and slip blocks under tips as shown in fig.4. Cement those cuts on leading and trailing edges together and when dry, add the spars. If glued and dried well, the edges will hold just fine. Good luck! poppy 24-Aug-07 17:51 The dihedral is shown on the wing build portion of plan. It is at the bottom and is shown leading edge on. There are 3 choices, free-flite, scale, or u-control. trotro 24-Aug-07 18:59 thanks a lot i will let u know my progress... trotro 24-Aug-07 20:44 poppy the blocks under the leading edge are 1/16 sq balsa? poppy 24-Aug-07 21:39 Probably more like 1/4" sguare. Anyway, just enough to allow all rib front edges to attach flush with bottom of leading edge while trailing edge is flat on building surface. trotro 24-Aug-07 22:50 thx..poppy Please sign in to comment on this image.
