Tools

gerous to young children so be sure to keep them out of
the reach of young children.
Assembly Instructions
Try to avoid bending the parts when you cut them out.
When assembling the parts, follow the assembly in-
structions and use the parts in the order given.
When sticking surfaces together, spread the glue evenly
and stick the parts together quickly and line up the
edges cleanly. While the glue is drying, put the fuse-
lage inside a sheet of paper and then press it down with
a book or similar in order to get a nice, straight finish.
When sticking the right and left wings together, make
sure that the center line is not off center.
Center line
To glue the wings flush onto the fuselage, use a pencil
or scissors to flatten out the part where the wings at-
tach to the fuselage.
Rub with pencil or scissors
to flatten out.
Flatten the uneven surface.
Cross section of the fuselage
To give the wings an angle, bend along a straight
ruler. (Refer to the assembly instructions for details on
what degree of angle to use.)
Dihedral angle
Attach the wings and horizontal stabilizer carefully so
that their center lines match up exactly with the center
line of the fuselage.
Make sure that the center line of
the wings matches up exactly
with the center line of the fuselage.
Also attach the horizontal stabilizer firmly.

If any of the cut out parts are bent, this will seriously
affect the glider's performance. Therefore, be sure to
keep all parts perfectly flat till you join them up. For
the wings, stabilizer and other parts, use a ruler to
give you a proper straight edge to make your folds.
Align the parts
against a ruler to fold them.

Racer 538 Wren: Assembly Instructions
Fold all tabs outward.
Aligning the noses flush,
glue
through
together
in the order shown.
Glue
to the underside of
. When dry, cut off the protruding portions.
Glue the horizontal stabilizer
onto the tab of
the vertical stabilizer.
Place a ruler along the center line
of main wing, bend each side up
individually to make a dihedral
angle of approximately 13˚
using the dihedral angle gauge.
Glue the main wing (
+
) firmly
to the fuselage.
Camber the main wings slightly
with your fingers.
Fold
up slightly along the center line
and glue it onto the center line of the main wing.
Using the dihedral angle gauge,
make sure the dihedral angle for the main wing is 13˚.
View the plane from both the front and
the back and straighten any warps or
bends in the fuselage and the wings.
GLUING INSTRUCTIONS
Glue the parts together in the order indicated.
FINISHING TOUCHES
Give the finishing touches to the plane
after it dries thoroughly.
N O TE:
As the vertical stabilizer of the plane with
T-shape horizontal stabilizer needs to be strong
enough to support the horizontal stabilizer on it,
this part is designed a little heavier than that of the
other type of racer planes. For this reason, the
fuselage might bend when the plane crash into
the ground, so make sure that the fuselage has no
bends in it before flying it.
