Default help on h9 taylorcraft

hey guys I need help.

Sorry if this question has already been posted.

I just purchased a new Taylorcraft and I am new to this hobby so I want to make sure I do everything right. What joints should I reinforce and with what type of glue. Epoxy,slow CA? Any suggestions on building this ARF would be appreciated.
Thank you
D.M.

Default Glue joints

Go over all the joints you can with thin CA and kicker. If you find some wide gaps fill them with medium or use baking soda and fill the joint with thin. It will make a strong joint. My Taylorcraft needed the firewall joint reinforced. I used the baking soda and thin CA for this. Good luck, Pete

So far after inspecting it I haven't had to do anything other than assemble it. I put a larger engine in mine and made a double firewall. I plan on dowling in the fuse side to the existing firewall but other than that mine appears to be a well built ARF. Good luck!
