PREPARE THE FOAM PIECES OF YOUR ADVANCED WING
1. Pop out the pieces for your Advanced Wing, but don’t cut the ailerons yet
(you’ll do that step later). Take the two large halves, line them up side by side
and put a little tape on each end to hold it together (Illustration 1 and 1a).
2. Take a longer piece of tape, and cover the entire seam (Illustration 2),
smoothing the tape out with your Drafting Triangle and leaving some extra tape
on either side (you’ll fold this over later). When you pick it up, it should have a
nice hinge.
3. On the untaped side, fold the hinge back. You’ll notice that there is a gap in the
seam. Don’t put any glue there. Only glue up to midway past the first etch mark
and on the other end just beyond the ailerons (Illustration 3 and 3a).
4. Lay the wing flat, grab a scrap piece of foam and smear the excess glue all
along the seam. Let dry. Fold the extra tape over on top of the seam.
