8.6 Folding Wing System
The REMOS GX is manufactured at highest quality standards, all
components are highly accurate and provide a maximum
aerodynamic quality. It is therefore strongly recommended to be
most careful when assembling or disassembling components like the
wings, stabilizer and other parts. To fold or attach the wings, two
persons are required. The following instructions will provide you with
all the necessary information.
8.7 Preparation for Assembling and Disassembling
For assembling and disassembling the wings a special tool for
attaching and removing the wing and stabilizer bolts is provided with
the basic equipment for the aircraft. Furthermore a screwdriver is
needed to lock/unlock the camlocks of the strut joint fairings.
To prepare for assembling the stabilizer, place the stabilizer behind
the aircraft on an appropriate foam support (take care to avoid
scratches and dents). Remove both stabilizer bolts from their bushes
on the stabilizer and place them nearby (prepare with grease).
If you intend to move the aircraft by trailer or to store it with wings
folded, we recommend using our wing securing aids (ask your local
dealer). With these supports mounted, wings are secured properly
and the handling of the aircraft will be much easier.
When the aircraft has to be moved by trailer, please ask your
authorized REMOS dealer for advice. When placed on a trailer in a
wrong way, serious damage could result.
