- Preskusna namestitev: Before applying glue, dry-fit parts to ensure proper alignment and fit. Trim or sand as necessary.
- Lepljenje: Apply a small amount of plastic cement to the mating surfaces. Hold parts together firmly until the glue sets. Avoid using excessive glue, which can damage the plastic.
- Podsklopi: Assemble smaller sections (e.g., cockpit, landing gear, weapon systems) first, then integrate them into the main fuselage.
