• Remove the backing paper from the double-sided tape on the
bottom of the fuselage.
• Attach the main wing to the fuselage by lining it up along the
centerline of the fuselage. Make sure you are able to see the screw
holes through the wing.
• Make sure that the motor connector is in the center of the wing. The
control surfaces need to face the tail of the plane.
• Note: The back of the wing cover is thicker than the front. The thicker
end goes to the back.
• Plug the battery wire from the wing cover into the motor wire in
the fuselage.
• Push the connected wires into the space inside the fuselage.
• Line up the holes in the wing cover and the fuselage. If the thicker
part of the cover is not placed to the back, the screw holes will not
line up.
• Carefully place the screws through the holes, securing the wing
cover to the fuselage.
• Tighten the screws securely. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
• Remove the backing paper from the tape on the bottom of
the stabilizer.
• Line up the slots in the stabilizer and the fuselage. The elevator
should face the back of the airplane.
• Remove the backing paper from the double-sided tape on both
sides of the rudder.
• Insert the rudder into the slots in the horizontal tail and the fuselage.
• Apply the decals to the airplane using the box front as your guide.
