Assembly Instructions for


STS-134 payload
Building the AMS-02 (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer-2)
(Assembly is the same for both scales 1:144 and 1:100)
The blank octagon is glued on top of the whole
structure. On the 1:144 scale version, there is no
extra octagon part, but do not glue the octagon with
the AMS logos until the end of the assembly.

The octagon with the AMS logo is not glued at this


stage because if it's glued than it can get dirty when
handling the model while gluing other parts.
Do not glue the octagon with AMS logos until
the end of the assembly.

When gluing the legs be very careful keeping the
radiator vertical at all times and parallel to the AMS
body.
The arrows indicate where the legs are glued to the
AMS body and radiator.
Glue AMS logo top
For the 1:144 scale version, the small
front “V” shape part that holds the front of
the attachment system has been deleted
from the file because it is too smal.

The circles indicate the umbilical that


connects to the ROEU on the payload
bay.
Building the OBSS supports for the ISS truss

Important tip: the OBSS supports are glued


to the truss first. Once they have dried, then
the OBSS boom is glued.

S1 Truss
The PDGF attached to the OBSS
boom comes from the P6 truss. The
photo shows the location on the back
of the P6 truss where the PDGF was
removed. To be more accurate with
your ISS model, detach the PDGF
from your P6 truss and if still in good
condition glue it to the tip of the
OBSS boom. If not, the STS-134 kit
includes a PDGF for the boom.
