Building instructions
Before you start gluing parts together, use a servo tester or the radio control system to
check that the servos are working properly.
Attach the horns to the ailerons using the retaining screws and spreader plates provided.
Set the aileron servo to neutral from the transmitter. Open up the hole in the servo
output arm to the appropriate diameter for the pushrod. Connect the pushrod at one end,
adjust its length and connect the other end.
Glue the tiptanks to the wings.
Offer up the wings to the fuselage
dry
(without glue) and check that they fit snugly.
Carry out any minor trimming required, so that the wings can be glued fully in their
recesses.
Remove the access hatch from the underside of the fuselage.
Apply glue to the joint surfaces of the wings and fuselage, press the parts together and
pin or tape them to prevent them shifting while the glue is hardening. Take care that no
glue gets into the area of the access hatch.
