Quick Question About Rocket Bunny GT V1 Wing
 
I bought this wing used, but the guy I bought it from lost the screws/ nuts, etc. (hardware) and whatever else is needed to mount the wing to the trunk. He included the hardware to mount the wing to the mounting bracket, but not the hardware needed to mount that to the trunk. Does anyone know what I would need to mount it, or have a copy of the install instructions? Thanks for the help!

Install instructions are in japanese and won't do you any good (they didn't for me anyways) what you need now are these:

Alan key bolts (you can find them in any hardware store) make sure you get the right amount and the right length... and there's no template telling you how to line up the wing properly so yeah have someone help you to mount it when test fitting.

Assuming that your wing is not assembled... assemble the plane to the two big diagonal mounts, then assemble the mounts that go into the trunk onto the diagonal mounts and then start test fitting the wing to see what position would be ideal for the wing to stay on and mark the holes with some sort of marker, drill the marked holes and make sure you secure the bolt with a nut from the inside of the trunk (if your drill hasn't went through the trunk from the inside then I suggest you keep drilling, that's how I secured my wing).

Thanks for the info! It looks like I would need 16 of those bolts to mount the completed wing on my trunk...

Do you remember what length of bolt I would need?

I'm not sure but I'm hoping someone else can chime in with the measurements :/.
