This flying scale model, built entirely of paper and designed by Rigby, is capable of short, realist flights. Material used is heavy bond or light detail paper. Model cement, used sparingly, is the adhesive.
Trace off all patterns and cut out all parts accurately. By studying the assembly sketch, make all necessary bends and folds. Wing leading edges are folded double for more strength and bewtt4r alignment. The curved fuselage parts should be curled carefully without creasing the paper. Notice that part #12 must be assembled within the front part of the fuselage before the latter is assembled. This makes a firm support for the wing attachment. Reinforce the notches for the rear hook by cementing a second layer of paper on the inside of the fuselage, on each side. Holes in the circular nosepieces should fit the hardwood nose button. In assembling the front part of the fuselage, one of the circular pieces is cemented over the other and the cardboard disc is cemented on top of it. Join the two main fuselage parts, and attach the cockpit canopy and radiator.

To pass through the fuselage slot, one elevator must be folded flat against the stabilizer, after which it is straightened and lightly cemented in place. The rudder is simply cemented in its slot. Wing assembly is simple, parts #10 and #11 providing necessary dihedral.
Carve the small propeller from a 4-1/2 inch balsa block. After attaching the shaft, washers, and the nose button, notch the spinner to fit over the hub of the propeller.
Balance the model, test glide it, making necessary adjustments by bending the surfaces.
