BBQ Skewers glued on the

fuselage with hot glue or epoxy.

 Their location is approximate but

needed to stiffen up the fuselage.

Battery Tray. Use the piece cutout to make the battery area.

 Turn it on it’s side and glue it back in the hole and support it with

angled popsicle stick pieces.

3 Motor Mount Pieces. Make sure the front

piece is glued first to the front of the fuselage.

It must follow the angle of the nose to give the

motor the propper down angle. Then glue either

a small piece if thin plywood or several pieces of popscile sticks to the front motor mount to give

the motor screws something to screw into.

 This BBQ skewer is glued on TOP of the wing.

Also put a piece of 1.5 - 2 inch wide packingtape running the length over the top of it.

 This makes it more aerodynaic and adds lift.

Glue popsicle sticks

here for skids.

Glue popsicle stick on topof the nose for added

stiffness.

Cut THIS piece out and use it as the battery

tray if you are a more advanced pilot and

want LESS stability but better barrel rolls.
