6. Quick Collapsible Illustration

With the Quick Collapsible Design, you can fold four arms of Streak 1000 easily for easy transportation and storage. However you must follow the coming
step by step to fold the arms correctly, otherwise the Lock System may damaged!
Step 1. Four Arms of Streak 1000 are locked with four Thumb Screws with Split Lock Washers.
Lower Main Frame Side
Upper Main Frame Side
Step 2. Loosen the above Screws a little bit (normally loosen 0.5 turns from complete tighten status), but do not loosen or tighten completely. Otherwise the Arms will not be foldable. If you found that it is getting loosen
after the flight, secure the screws with Thread Locker again for secure flight. Adjust the tightness of these
screws for the smoothness to fold the arms, loosen it a little bit more if your folding arms are too tight.
21
Step 3. Loosen the Thumb Screw and make sure it is not touching the Fiber Frames. Then the four Folding Arms can be folded or opened.
Step 4. Make sure the Arm is fully folded or opened, and then tighten the Thumb Screw completely. It should throught two layer of the carbon fiber frames as shown above for secure flying.
Step 5. Always check if the above four Screws on the Upper Main Frame are secured tightened completely for secure flight. If you found that it is getting loosen, secure it with Thread Locker. At the same time, do Step 2 shown above from time to time to ensure a secure flying.
