uses a pair of Wing Locater Tabs to position the wing.</p> <p>Easy, templated installation, adjustable.</p> <p>Designed for and installed in a fully assembled plane.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>My Mi3 and AluMaker</p> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>Normal, .15 in Cura</p> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>Varied</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> eSun PLA or PLA+ (my preference)</p> <p>Your choice</p> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>Orient all parts on the build plate according to the illustration.</p> <p>Support is needed on the F-Plug Plate, F-Mount, W-Plug Plate, and W-Mount Plate.</p> <p>The F-Mount and W-Mount should be 35% Infill.</p> <p>All other parts can be 10% Infill</p> <p>Trim away the 2 little locking tabs in the slots of the XH connector that is used in the Fuselage.</p> <p>If you find that this makes your flying sessions MORE enjoyable

<p>Place Template 1 against the underside leading edge of the wing, centered over the seam, as shown, then tape in place.</p> <p><strong>Template in place</strong></p> <p>Glue the Front Locator Tab into place using the Template as a guide.</p> <p>When done, remove the Template: save it, it will be used again.</p> <p><strong>Template and Front Tab Placed</strong></p> <p><strong>Front Tab Glued, Template Removed</strong></p> <p>Place Template 2 against the underside trailing edge of the wing, centered over the seam, as shown, and tape into place.</p> <p><strong>Template 2 in place</strong></p> <p>Glue the Rear Locater Tab into place using the Template as a guide.</p> <p>When done, remove and recycle/discard the Template</p> <p><strong>Rear Tab installed</strong></p> <p>Install (saved) Template 1 in the same location that you just removed Template 2 from and tape in place.</p> <p>Glue the W-Mount in place to the wing, using the template as a guide, keeping the mount against the template, and centered left-to-right, as shown.</p> <p>When done, remove and recycle/discard the template.</p> <p><strong>W-Mount positioned for install</strong></p> <p><strong>W-Mount installed, template removed</strong></p> <p>Compose your wiring as desired for the Wing.</p> <p><strong>Wired W-Plug Plate ready for installation.</strong></p> <p>The Plus Plate and Filler Plate have angled back faces that must be aligned with each other for installation.</p> <p>NO glue is used here.</p> <p>Secure the assembly to the W-Mount Plate using 2 screws, routing the wires under the center of the Rear Locater Tab.</p> <p>Tighten until snug, then loosen both screws so that the Plug Plate can be easily moved, but stays in position.</p> <p>An optional Wire Clip is included for retaining the servo connector ends.</p> <p><strong>W-Plug Plate assembly installed</strong></p> <p>Test fit the F-Mount between the fuselage sides as shown.</p> <p>The mount fits between the sides, flush to the top, with the small tab touching the bottom edge of the rear angled face.</p> <p>If necessary, file/sand/trim away until the fit is correct.</p> <p>When satisfied, glue the F-mount into place,</p> <p>Add a drop of CA to the top of the tab where it touches the angled face.</p> <p><strong>F-Mount glued in place</strong></p> <p><strong>CA glue on the top of the tab/angled face.</strong></p> <p>Compose your wiring for the fuselage as desired.</p> <p>Glue the XH connector into the F-Plug Plate using CA to keep it retained.</p> <p><strong>Fuselage wiring</strong></p> <p>Install the F-Plug Plate assembly to the F-Mount using 1 screw.</p> <p><strong>F-Plug Plate installed</strong></p> <p><strong>Wing Installation</strong></p> <p>The W-Plug Plate is left intentionally loose so that it can "float" during insertion, but only Front-to-Back a few mm's.</p> <p>As this is a free-floating wing, the wing Locater Tabs just put the wing where it needs to be to ensure the connectors hit their mark.</p> <p>You might find it is easier to install the rear edge first and then drop the front down into place.</p> Category: R/C Vehicles
