Once the Lower Cowl sheeting is sanded, glue F1D onto F1C.
The angled sheeting is built up of layers of
1
⁄16" balsa. You may use
thicker material to achieve the same result, but the first layer must
be
1
⁄16" balsa. Cut sections of
1
⁄16" balsa sheeting and use CA glue
when sheeting the two corners.
Shave off the edges of each layer added. This will allow you to see
how much more is needed and how wide the next sheeting layer
should be.
Continue to add layers until the thickness of the sheeting
matches the thickness of the Fuselage Corner Strips. Do not
proceed to the Upper Cowl yet.
Using the recommended OS .46AX, configuration of the Remote
Needle Valve will be required. See the configuration above.
Muffler Pressure Nipple may interfere with the Engine Mount.
Some shaving of the Mount may be required (dremel style tool).
The engine is a tight fit so care is needed when installing. Test fit
the Engine for clearance. Position the Engine with Muffler into the
Mount. If the Engine Thrust Washer is not perfectly centred in the
middle of F1B, shim the back of the Mount with thin washers or
very thin gasket card stock.
