“Discovery” XD-1
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Preliminary
Print model pages on 67lb white cover stock.
Some pieces require lamination onto 1mm cardboard.
A pair of heavy straight-edges such as yardsticks or meter sticks to assemble the spine.
Spine
Figure 1
Score and cut out piece 7a.
Cut out piece 7* from 24lb paper
Form 7a into a Y shape, be sure there is
no glue on the triangular tabs. (figure 1)
Repeat for 7b except the triangular tabs
should be splayed out (see figure 4).
Figure 2
Piece 7a completed
Figure 3
Align the splice between 7a and 7b by
matching up the green alignment lines.
Clamp one leg of the Y between the two
meter sticks to ensure the spine is
perfectly straight before gluing. (figure
3) Glue the flaps of the other two legs
of the Y together. When dry, glue the
third leg of the Y together.
Figure 4
Score, cut out and assemble piece 11.
(Optional: separate the large end piece
from the rest, remove the glue tabs and
laminate to 1mm cardboard. Form the
main “tube” then insert the end piece
from the rear and glue inplace on the
inside)
Glue the 7b end of the spine to Piece 11
as shown.
Engine Collar
Figure 5
Score, cutout, fold and assemble parts 5
and 6.
Join 5 to 6.
Insert the spine through the y shaped
holes in 5 and 6. Note the alignment
marks should match with piece 11.
Figure 6
Slide 5-6 assembly down the spine and
attach to piece 11.
Fuel Modules
Figure 7
Assemble the 10 hexagonal fuel
modules, piece 8.
Mount 4 modules onto the spine by
sliding from the front end of the spine.
Align modules between the couplings
printed on the spine.
Put a drop of glue where the spine
enters the end of the fuel module.
Figure 8
4 fuel modules mounted onto the spine.
Note the location of the splice.
Figure 9
Assemble the AE-35 module, piece 9.
Mount onto the spine; note carefully the
orientation of the module.
Figure 10
Mount the remaining 6 fuel modules.
Vary the orientation of the modules.
Figure 11
Roughly cutout 4d and laminate to a
piece of 1mm cardstock. Laminate 4c
onto the backside of the same piece.
Cutout the Y shaped hole and trim 4c to
the final shape. Cut out 4b and glue in
place on 4c. Mount onto the spine as
shown aligning the surface of 4d with
the mark on the spine.
Figure 12
Cut the folds joining the triangular tabs
at the end of the spine. Open the tabs
and glue down onto piece 4c within the
triangular cutout in piece 4b.
Figure 13
Glue piece 4a onto 4b. Fold over the
flaps around the edge of assembly.
Figure 14
Form the 4 emergency engine tubes,
part 3, into cylinders. Attach to part 4 as
shown.
Command Module
Figure 15
Score, cutout, fold and assemble parts 1
and 2. Attach 2 to 1, carefully noting
green alignment marks to complete the
Command Module.
Apply a bead of glue around the inside
of each of the emergency engine
cylinders (3) then attach to piece 2 by
holding the assembly vertical until the
glue dries.
Engines
Figure 16
Assemble the engines as shown.
Optionally substitute 1mm card for 12e.
Form part 13 first attaching the glue
tabs around the outside, then fold the
large flaps over the outside covering the
glue tabs. Form parts 14 into rings with
black on the inside.
Figure 17
Attach the center engine to the Reactor
Module (11). After glue is completely
cured attach the outer two engines.
AE-35 Antenna
Figure 18
Form the various parts of the antenna by
scoring and cutting around the outer
rectangles. Fold over and glue to form 2
sided pieces, then cut out the final
shapes. Form the base and cylinder of
10d. Glue 10c into he bottom of 10d
then cap 10d. Attach 10b to 10a. Attach
10b to 10a.
Figure 19
Attach completed antenna assembly
(10) to the AE35 spine module (9)
where indicated with the antenna facing
the rear of the spacecraft.
