I) Installing The Main Landing Gear; J) Mounting The Tail Spur With Linkage - Reely Piper J3 Cub Bedienungsanleitung

i) Installing the Main Landing Gear

Install the main landing gear with thread-cutting
screws 2.5 x 12 mm and the metal clamps to
the fuselage as shown in figure 7a.
For this, the hard wood guides must be clea-
red of the iron-on foil and the attachment holes
must be pre-drilled small.
Then install the mufflers (spring wires) o the left
and right so that the two spring wires cross at
the middle.
Then attach the chassis covers.
For this, use the attachment tabs and thread-
cutting screws 2 x 6 mm. The holes for the at-
tachment screws have already been pre-drilled
in the covers.

Now install the wheels with the adjustment
rings from the construction kit.

j) Mounting the Tail Spur with Linkage

Install the aluminium linkage lever (1) with th-
read-cutting screws 1.6 x 12 mm to the rudder.
Observe symmetrical alignment.
Then install the tail spur as sown in figure 7b.
Apply the rail spur, mark and drill the holes and
screw the spur to the fuselage (2) with self-
securing screws 2.6 x 12 mm.
It is recommended that you remove the screws
again after first assembly and to apply a drop
of liquid instant glue to each screw hole to in-
crease solidity. The lower tensioning ropes are
attached to the rear screw (3).
Create a connection between the aluminium
rudder horn installed to the rudder and the rud-
