MosquitoBite Planes Robin
Locate the supplied 15mm Snaps. Using epoxy, glue the female
end into the Firewall. Be careful not to get epoxy into the spring
components.
Glue and clamp the Upper Cowl assembly to the Firewall. Make
sure it is straight and centred.
Note: The top edges will not be flush.
Once the Upper Cowl assembly has cured, clamp the Lower Cowl
into position. DO NOT GLUE. Locate the two small Cowl Hooks as
shown above.
Glue these Cowl Hooks to the Upper Cowl assembly ONLY. Be
careful not to bond anything to the Lower Cowl assembly.
Remove the Lower Cowl when the Cowl Hooks have cured to the
Upper Cowl, then revisit with more glue.
Sheeting the Lower Cowl
Locate and install with CA, the laser-cut sheeting supplied. Refer
to Plan Sheet 1 to identify the supplied laser-cut sheeting.
Use CA to glue in place, making sure each sheet is flush with LC2.
Place F1D over its intended position and trim the balsa sheeting
to allow F1D a snug fit against F1C. Do not glue F1D yet.
Using a sanding block, carefully sand the edges of the balsa
sheeting (see black arrows) to the same angle (45˚) as LC2. Sand
only enough to create a good contact edge for the angled
sheeting. Be very careful not to change the original outline of
each sheet.
