219 - 1/4" Think piece of balsa added to rear.
|
220 - I used a Bob Violett canopy mount, but you could also make them from 3/32" ply using the shape below as a reference.
|
|
 |
 |
221 - Canopy plate slotted. Fuselage slotted with a Dremel cutting wheel.
|
222 - Canopy mount installed.
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
223 - Measurement showing location of the slots.
|
224 - Canopy mounted and held in place, then drill used to bore through the canopy and fuselage.

|
227 - A piece of 1/4" x 1/2" balsa cut and fit to opening below, lightly wedged in place. CA applied to the top only.
|
228 - Canopy set in place, lifting the rear, pushing all the way back, then dropping the rear on the balsa piece from the previous step.
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
229 - Dropping rear forced the piece to glue on canopy for a perfect fit. This piece of balsa will insure the canopy will not twist under stress of flight.
|
220 - Cockpit painted.
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
221 - Canopy Glue used to mount the canopy to the cockpit. Tape is used to hold it in place until it dries.
|
222 - Cockpit plate installed on canopy.
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
223 - Canopy installation completed. It's a simple way to mount it and the canopy should not come off during flight as it needs to move forward and up to be removed.
