❑ Kwik Bond Thin C/A
❑ Kwik Bond C/A Debonder
YOU'LL NEED THE FOLLOWING PARTS:
❑ (17) C/A Style Hinges
SECTION 12: CONTROL SURFACE HINGING
YOU'LL NEED THE FOLLOWING SUPPLIES:
❑ Ernst Airplane Stand
❑ Paper Towels
IMPORTANT
If you want flutter-free control surfaces it is imperative that the hinges be glued in properly. This includes both having a
tight hinge gap and using plenty of thin C/A glue.
Step 1: Hinging the Ailerons
❑ Slide one hinge into each of the four hinge slots in each
aileron.
❑ Center each hinge within its slot and double-check to
make sure the centerline of the hinges is flush with the
leading edge of the ailerons.
❑ Glue each hinge into place using 5-6 drops of thin C/A.
Allow a few seconds between drops for the C/A to "wick"
into the hinges, then turn the ailerons over and apply 5-6
drops on the other side of each hinge. Let the C/A dry for
about 10 minutes before proceeding.
☞
If any C/A gets onto the aileron, it can be removed promptly using a paper towel soaked with a small quantity of
Kwik Bond C/A Debonder.
❑ Slide the aileron and its hinges into the hinge slots in the trailing edge of the wing, making sure that the leading edge
of the aileron is pushed firmly up against the trailing edge of the wing. The edges of the aileron should not rub against the
edges of the wing.
❑ While holding the aileron tight against the wing, pivot
the aileron down about 45º and apply 5-6 drops of thin C/A
to the exposed area of each hinge. Turn the wing over and
repeat for the other side of the hinges.
☞
Remove any C/A that may run down the hinge line using
C/A Debonder.
❑ After the C/A has dried completely - about 15 minutes -
pivot the aileron up and down to free up the hinges.
IMPORTANT
After the C/A has fully cured, gently grasp the aileron and pull on it like you are trying to pull out the hinges. The hinges
should hold securely. If one or more hinges feels loose, apply more C/A to the hinge(s) and allow it to completely cure.
