Estes Lynx, Kit #7233, Build Part 11, Ends and Edges


Titebond M&TG fillets were added to the engine mount vanes.

The fillets were smoothed and excess glue removed using Q-tips.


The intake tubes got medium CA applied to the exposed front end.

The ends also got some CA. This is just to harden up the sides so the fuzzies can be sanded smooth. Keep the CA glue off the edges where they will be glued to the main tube.

It's interesting that a Great Planes sanding block is illustrated in the instructions. I doubt a younger builder would know what it is.





Glue the "K" stabilizer parts on the wing edges.
Be sure they are glued on at a 90 degree angle to the lower wing.
I had a little bit of wing over the front and rear of the stabs.
