ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTION
The proposed P-51 D Mustang model is comparatively easy to be build but its high level of
similarity to the real aircraft requires special attention and high precision during the assembly
process.
Study carefully the illustrative drawings, cutouts and present instruction before starting the work on
the model. Try to imagine the separate assembly phases and the purpose of each detail.
After the acquaintance with the model, you may start the assemblage. Follow the sequence given in
the instruction. Cut the necessary details shortly before using them in order to avoid possible
mistakes. Score all fold lines before cutting the details. The places of scoring are marked with small
thin lines on the continuation of fold lines outside the parts. The small red line markings show where
to make cuts on the wing-fuselage joint cowlings.
Do not be in a hurry with gluing - carefully check and shape the details until obtaining the exact and
correct fit. Before starting the work get hold of the necessary tools: scissors, sharp modeling knife,
blunt knife for scoring the fold lines, prickle, ruler, nippers and grinding paper. Additional materials
necessary for the assemblage are: sheet of cardboard with thickness approximately 0.5 mm, a piece
of wire with diameter 0.5 - 0.8 mm. Supply with proper glue. BISON Clear Adhesive, UHU or
similar are recommended as the most appropriate ones. Water based glue is not recommended.
Preparation for assembling includes gluing pages that contain formers and strengthening elements
on a 0.5 mm cardboard.
Start wit the cockpit interior 1 as it is shown on a view A of the instruction drawings. Form the
fuselage segment 2, glue on it connecting stripes 2a – 2e and close it. Insert in it formers 2f and 2i,
then insert from the rear the cockpit interior part 1 and complete the segment by fixing on its place
the former 2f.
Continue with the fuselage segment 3. Form it, glue the connecting stripes 3a- 3d and close it. Glue
the rear part of the cockpit 3e and the former 3f. Then glue it to the segment 1, strictly keeping lines
of symmetry.
Assembly the fuselage nose by adding segments 10-13 and the nose air intake 14, 15 as it is shown
on view B. Complete the fuselage by adding segment 17, segment 19 with preliminary inserted rear
wheel housing 18 and the vertical stabilizer 20-20c. You can use the bottom centerline pattern to
obtain correct shape of the fuselage belly.
Glue inside the cockpit ruder pedals 4, instruments panel 5-5d, control rod 6, throttles control 7,
pilots sit 8-8b, belts 8c and the gun sight 9-9t.
Assembly the cockpit glassing 21, by forming it and gluing the transparent parts 21t. Be careful and
avoid mess. Note that despite the weathering of the aircraft during its field exploitation, the part that
is always kept crystal clear is the cockpit glassing.
If you’ve choused junior option, you can omit interior and use the parts 8, 8a for the cockpit
glassing.
You can use the cockpit centerline pattern during assemblage and gluing the cockpit to the fuselage.
If you like to have antenna wire on your model, you should fix its end to the back of the pilot’s seat
and to insert the other end in the hole of the cockpit before glue it to the fuselage, as it’s shown on
view C.
Continue with the wing. Assembly the wing reinforcing structure /parts 23-23h/, wheels housings 22
and cover them with the wing skin parts 24-27 and wingtips 28, 29. Keep the dihedral angle and do
not avoid twisting of the wing.
Glue the wing to the fuselage and then place the wind-fuselage fillets 30, 31.
Insert the horizontal stabilizer reinforcement element 32 in the fuselage and glue the profiles 32a,
32b on their places. Then place the horizontal stabilizer parts 33, 34 and glue them to the fuselage.
Assembly and the cooling air intake 35-37and glue it to the fuselage beneath the wing together with
the cowling 55,55a.
Assembly the propeller 57-60 and its bearing 61 and propeller itself /55-60/, keeping the symmetry
and the angle of attack of the blades 60. The propeller should rotate free in its bearing.
Continue the undercarriage as it is shown on the view H. Cut the wheel parts 42, 43, 45 from heavy
card and glue them to each other, keeping their order. After drying the glue, round them by sand
paper, paint their edges with black ink or flumaster and finaly glue to them 42a, 42b, 43a, 43b and
45a. Assembly the undercarriage and glue it to the wings and fuselage, keeping the placement
angles.
Complete the model by aging the the antenna mast 62 and the rear view mirror 56. Fix the rear end
of the antenna wire to the vertical stabilizer.
Now your Mustang is ready.
Enjoy!
