Removing/Replacing the Landing Gear
To remove the landing gear:
1. Gently grasp the landing gear base and pull the
landing gear assembly out of the mount.
TIP:
It may be difficult to remove the landing gear the
first time.
2. Thread the new metal gear strut into the plastic insert.
3. Push the landing gear insert into the gear mount until
the insert clicks into place. Ensure the alignment tab
on the insert is facing to the rear of the mount and is
inserted in the slot.
4. Repeat the previous steps for the other side.
TIP:
For slower flight, the model can be flown without
the landing gear if desired. It is recommended to slide
the battery mount forward to compensate for the weight
of the landing gear.
Replacing the Vertical Stabilizer
To replace the vertical stabilizer:
1. Gently remove the clear pressure fitting tube located
on the bottom of the fin post.
2. Gently disconnect the pushrod from the control horn.
3. Slide the vertical fin up out of the mount.
4. Reconnect the pushrod to the new vertical fin, and
insert the vertical fin down into the mount.
5. Slide the clear pressure fitting tube onto the fin post.
IMPORTANT:
When replacing the pressure fitting tube,
do not jam it against the mount. This will not allow the
vertical fin to move freely throughout its range of motion.
Replacing the Wing
All LEDs on the wing are permanently attached. The new
wing will include a new set of LEDs.
To replace the wing:
1. Disconnect the main LED wire from the receiver board.
2. Remove the LED that is attached to the tail of the
aircraft.
IMPORTANT:
The LED is tack glued to the fuselage. It will
be necessary to very carefully break the glue joint loose.
3. Unclip the wing struts from the bottom of the wing ribs.
4. Remove the four screws from the wing mounts, and
gently remove the wing.
5. Place the new wing into the wing mounts and secure
with the four screws into the mounts.
6. Clip the top of the wing struts to the bottom of the
wing ribs.
7. Install the LED located near the tail, and tack glue it
into place.
IMPORTANT:
Use only a very small
amount of hot glue or rubber cement to
attach the LED to the fuselage. Other
adhesives may damage the LED.
8. Connect the main LED wire to the
receiver board.
