INSTALLING HORIZONTAL STABILIZER
1) Hinges for Elevator are glued the same way as the
aileron before (see page 8).
2) Draw a center line onto the horizontal stabilizer
When cutting through the covering to
remove it, cut with only enough pressure to only
cut through the covering it's self. Cutting into the
balsa structure may weaken it. This could lead to
possible failure during flight.
Center line
3) Using a modeling knife, cut away the covering
from the fuselage for the stabilizer and remove it.
4) Check the fit of the horizontal stabilizer in its slot.
Make sure the horizontal stabilizer is square and
centered to the fuselage by taking measurements,
but don't glue anything yet.
5) With the horizontal stabilizer correctly aligned.
Apply a thin CA layer to the top and bottom of the
stabilizer in the fuselage
6) Remove the stabilizer. Using the lines you just
drew as a guide, carefully remove the covering
from between them using a modeling knife.
A = A
B = B
7) When you are sure that everything is aligned
correctly, mix up a generous amount of 30 minute
epoxy.Apply a thin layer to the bottom and to the top
of the stabilizer mounting area and to the stabilizer
mounting platform sides in the fuselage. Slide the
stabilizer in place and re-align. Double check all of
your measurements one more time before the epoxy
cures. Remove any excess epoxy using a paper
towel and rubbing alcohol and hold the stabilizer in
place with T-pins or masking tape.
8) After the epoxy has fully cured, remove the
masking tape or T-pins used to hold the stabilizer in
place and carefully inspect the glue joints. Use more
epoxy to fill in any gaps that were not filled previously
and clean up the excess using a paper towel and
rubbing alcohol.

INSTALLING THE FUEL TANK
1. Using a modeling knife, cut one length of silicon
fuel line (the length of silicon fuel line is
calculated by how the weighted clunk should
rest about 5mm away from the rear of the tank
and move freely inside the tank). Connect one
end of the line to the weighted clunk and the
other end to the nylon pick up tube in the
stopper.
2. Carefully bend the second nylon tube up at a 45
degree angle (using a cigarette lighter). This
tube will be the vent tube to the muffler.
3. Carefully bend the third nylon tube down at a 45
degree angle (using a cigarette lighter). This
tube will be vent tube to the fueling valve.
!
When the stopper assembly is installed in the
tank, the top of the vent tube should rest just
below the top surface of the tank. It should not
touch the top of the tank.
4. Test fit the stopper assembly into the tank. It
may be necessary to remove some of the
flashing around the tank opening using a
modeling knife. If flashing is present, make
sure none of it falls into the tank.
5. When satisfied with the alignment of the stopper
assembly tighten the 3mm x 20mm machine
screw until the rubber stopper expands and
seals the tank opening. Do not over tighten the
assembly as this could cause the tank to split.
6. Using a modeling knife, cut 3 lengths of fuel line
. Connect 2 lines to the 2 vent tubes and 1 line
to the fuel pickup tube in the stopper.
7. Feed three lines through the fuel tank
compartment and through the pre-drilled hole in
the firewall. Pull the lines out from behind the
engine, while guiding the fuel tank into place.
Push the fuel tank as far forward as possible,
the front of the tank should just about touch the
back of the firewall.
Blow through one of the lines to ensure the fuel
lines have not become kinked inside the fuel
tank compartment. Air should flow through
easily.
!
Do not secure the tank into place permanently
until after balancing the airplane. You may
need to remove the tank to mount the battery in
the fuel tank compartment.
8. Secure the fuel tank.

INSTALLING THE THROTTLE
Connector
1) Install one adjustable metal connector through
the third hole out from the center of one servo arm,
enlarge the hole in the servo arm using a 2mm drill
bit to accommodate the servo connector. Remove
the excess material from the arm.
After installing the adjustable metal connector
apply a small drop of thin C/A to the bottom nut.
This will prevent the connector from loosening
during ght.
2) Plug the throttle servo into the receiver and turn
on the radio system. Check to ensure that the
throttle servo output shaft is moving in the correct

from idle to full throttle, the throttle barrel should
also open and close using this motion. If not,
reverse the direction of the servo, using the
transmitter.
3) Slide the adjustable metal connector / servo
arm assembly over the plain end of the pushrod
wire. Position the throttle stick and the throttle trim
at their lowest positions.
4) Manually push the carburator barrel fully
closed. Angle the arm back about 45 degree from
center and attach the servo arm onto the servo.
With the carburator barrel fully closed, tighte the
set screw in the adjustable metal connector.

BALANCING
1) It is critical that your airplane be balanced
correctly. Improper balance will cause your plane to
lose control and crash.
THE CENTER OF GRAVITY IS LOCATED 96MM
BACK FROM THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WING.
AT THE FUSELAGE. BALANCE A PLANE UPSIDE
DOWN WITH THE FUEL TANK EMPTY.
2) Mount the wing to the fuselage. Using a couple of
pieces of masking tape, place them on the top side of
the wing 96mm back from the leading edge, at the
fuselage sides.
3) Turn the airplane upside down. Place your
fingers on the masking tape and carefully lift the
plane.
4) If the nose of the plane falls, the plane is nose
heavy. To correct this first move the battery pack
further back in the fuselage. If this is not possible or
does not correct it, stick small amounts of lead
weight on the fuselage under the horizontal
stabilizer. If the tail of the plane falls, the plane is tail
heavy. To correct this, move the battery and receiver
forward or if this is not possible, stick weight into the
firewall. When balanced correctly, the airplane
should sit level or slightly nose down when you lift it
up with your fingers.
2) If one side of the wing fall, that side is heavier
than the opposite. Add small amounts of lead
weight to the bottom side of the lighter wing half's
wing tip. Follow this procedure until the wing stays
level when you lift the airplane.
CONTROL THROWS
1) We highly recommend setting up a plane using
the control throws listed.
2) The control throws should be measured at the
widest point of each control surface.
3) Check to be sure the control surfaces move in the
correct directions.
Low rate:
Aileron: 10 mm up 10 mm down
Elevator: 8 mm up 8 mm down
Rudder: 30 mm right 30 mm left

LATERAL BALANCE
After you have balanced a plane on the C.G.
You should laterally balance it. Doing this will
help the airplane track straighter.
1) Turn the airplane upside down. Attach one
loop of heavy string to the engine crankshaft and
one to the tail wheel wire. With the wings level,
carefully lift the airplane by the string. This may
require two people to make it easier.

PRE-FLIGHT CHECK
1) Completely charge your transmitter and
receiver batteries before your first day of flying.
2) Check every bolt and every glue joint in your
plane to ensure that everything is tight and well
bonded.
3) Double check the balance of the airplane.
4) Check the control surface.
5) Check the receiver antenna. It should be fully
extended and not coiled up inside the fuselage.
6) Properly balance the propeller.
