Dear Friend,
Congratulations on your choice.
The 1/5 scale Full Kit of the famous German Messerschmitt BF 109 E is offered in a composite
format with most of the detail work already done. However we appreciate that you derive great
pleasure from building your models and so we have left some building for you to do. We hope you
enjoy this build.

WINGS ASSEMBLY
We recommend the use of Epoxy Resin adhesive for the wing construction. All ribs are at 90 degrees to the work surface.
Follow the drawing for spacing and angles!
Sequence is shown below:
Step 1
Laminate Root Ribs F1 & F1a together. Lay down a 5x10x850mm
pine lower spar and start assembling the ribs and the spar shear
webs from the Root Rib end. Make sure the spar shear webs are
installed with the arrow pointing up and that they are installed
back to back. Install the upper 5x10x850mm pine spar at some
stage to help with assembly. Follow the dimensions and sequence
shown in drawing.

Step 3
Continue steps 1 & 2 to complete the wing structure. Follow the
photos sequence.
Step 2
Ensure that the wing tubes are at 90° to the Root Rib.

Step 4 Step 5
Install the upper and lower 5x10x600mm pine spars. Install 5x10x850mm pine strip to the trailing edge of the wing.

Step 6
Install 5x5x850mm pine strip to the leading edge of the wing.

skin.
Step 8 Step 9
Install the composite wing tube sleeve through the Root Rib and Install balsa wood hinge blocks 20mm thick between the upper &
Rib F2. Epoxy well. lower skins at the following ribs: R1, R4, R6, R7, R9 & R10. See
photo. Also install the 5x10 pine spar from Root Rib to rib F2 at
the F1.
15
Step 10
Ensure that all of the wing structures to be glued to the composite skins have adequate glue on them. Carefully position the wing
structure into the top wing skin first then position the lower one. Tape closed any openings around the edges and weight down the
wing so as to achieve good gap-free joints inside and around the edges. After the wings are cured mark the well position and cut
out. Use information shown on the growing.
That’s the wing done for now. Move onto the fuselage and cowl and install the composite details.
Install the gun troughs, exhaust covers, machine gun bulge, air filter, oil cooler bulge, wing bulges.
Use the drawing for the positioning of these details.
You can use adhesive 10-min epoxy 190G arbeitspackung R&G from www.lindinger.at

Before installing any of the composite details the surface
should be roughened up with 80 grit abrasive paper. Quick set
