"Marriage" - combining box & fuselage

Time required

  • 30 Minutes work

  • 1 day to cure the motor mount glue

Tools required

  • UHU Por

Parts required

  • assembled Fuselage halfs

Check for Defects before continuation

  • are V-Tails glued in?

  • are the carbon pipes for Fuselage stabilization glued in?

  • is the motor glued in (in one side)?

  • are the Servo-Connectors tightly screwed on?

  • are all 3 motor connectors correctly attached (rotation direction of the motor)

  • are all 3 moter connectors secured with watertight shrink tube?

  • are all connectiots (V-Tail Servos, Motor plugs...) connected and secured?

Building Instructions

  1. Prepare all parts

  2. Apply UHU Por on both parts of the fuselage and the box (see red marks in image below) plus (new!) at the bottom of the box (for additional stability and to reduce water entering)

  3. Spread equally and let it dry for 10 minutes until nearly dry

  4. Only now put UHU on the motor mount (Yellow below) - it should NOT dry

  5. Put the 2 parts together -

UHU Por is a "contact glue" - you can not move them after pressing them together

Why use wet glue on the motor mount?

The motor mount is inserted sidewards into the fusselage - if the glue is dry, its hard to get it in properly. UHU Por can also be used as a "wet" glue.
