20. Glue the V-shaped braces to the rudders asshown. Once the glue is set, turn the rudderassembly over and glue on the other brace.20.21. Stick the upper brace ends into the rear edgeof the upper wing as shown and add a spotof glue. (If the wing is thin, glue the braceunder the wing.) Now glue the ends of thelower brace to the rear of the skid so thatthe rudder is vertical.21.22. To make the propeller supports, use thetemplate to mark and cut five toothpicks foreach. Try to keep the assembly flat as it isglued.22.Learning to Fly: The Wright Brothers’ Adventure EG–2002–12–007–GRC71
23. When dry, glue each propeller support to thelower wing 2.2 inches (5.5 centimeters) fromthe center, in line with the back struts. Turnthe flyer over and glue to the top wing sothat the support is vertical. Extra glue maybe added to fill in any gap.23.24. Simulate the small engine by gluing two.8- by 1.2-inch (2- by 3-centimeter) piecesof Styrofoam together and then adding a.4- by 1.2-inch (1- by 3-centimeter) pieceon top. Trace and cut a circle with a pennyor dime, cut out, and then glue on the endof the engine. Glue the engine onto thelower wing just to the right of center.24.25. To simulate a turning propeller, trace and cut two 2.8-inch (7.2-centimeter) circles out of stiffclear plastic, such as a piece of a blank transparency sheet for an overhead projector. Draw piecesof smaller circles on the plastic circle with the black marker. Make a small hole in the very centerof each circle with a toothpick. Make a propeller blade from a thin craft stick or wooden icecream stick by cutting a piece the diameter of the plastic circle, rounding the cut edge, andpoking a hole in the center. Mount the plastic circle and then the propeller blade on the end ofthe propeller support and add glue. Make another propeller sheet and blade for the other side.25.Learning to Fly: The Wright Brothers’ Adventure72EG–2002–12–007–GRC
