INSTRUCTION MANUAL
This Neptune Boat Plane ARF Twin is the twin-engine version of our earlier single-engine Neptune.
The engine pods sit atop carbon-fiber tubes large enough for any wires you may need to install between
the engine pods and the fuselage. The supplied three-piece engine pods may be used for 40-class glow
engines, throttle servos and fuel tanks or for electric motors.
Both aileron servos are located safely inside the fuselage near the center of the wing. The wing rod is a
lightweight composite material. The nose compartment is the perfect location if you decide to add an
onboard glow-plug driver, for an electric power system’s ESCs and flight batteries, or to add any weight
to fine-tune the center of gravity. (The hatch arrives out-of-the-box covered
over. To access this compartment, simply cut the covering material around
the edges of the hatch.)
You could also enjoy this airplane on land with the optional landing-
gear and tail skid set as pictured at the right. Its color scheme is bright
and visible both in the air and on the water.
We invite you to enjoy the pride of ownership and the joy of flying this
high quality balsa, carbon-fiber, fiberglass and light-ply almost-ready-to-fly aircraft.
