Introduction

The Graupner/SJ HoTT DELUXE is a particularly attractive RC model aircraft which
offers a superb performance in the air. The HoTT DELUXE is equipped as standard
with an HPD brushless power system. The motor is very powerful, and gives the
HoTT DELUXE an outstanding climb rate and excellent aerobatic qualities. The
model is based loosely on a luxury-class light aircraft, and features radio aerials and
stabiliser vanes on the fin. Please take the time to read right through these operating
instructions before attempting to operate the model.

Essential tools and adhesives (not included)

Cyano-acrylate glue (“cyano”) Order No.5821
Cyano-acrylate activator Order No.953.150
You will also need the following: abrasive paper, 1.5 mm A/F allen key, screwdriver.

Assembling the model

The airframe requires just a few glued joints and assembly steps to complete, but the
following instructions must still be observed carefully to ensure that the model flies
safely.
The first step is to open the canopy: grasp it firmly at the rear end, and pull it upwards
and off. Now use a servo tester or your radio control system to centre the rudder and
elevator servos.

The photo shows the fuselage with the tailplane and fin inserted. Push the panels
into their slots as far as they will go, set them exactly “square”, and slip the pushrods
through the swivel connectors. When you are satisfied, apply low-viscosity cyano­acrylate (“thin cyano”) along the joints. Caution: do not use activator for these

joints, as this will prevent the adhesive running fully into the joints.

Allow the glue to set hard, then tighten the grubscrews in the swivel connectors using
the 1.5 mm A/F allen key. Ensure that both elevator panels are exactly parallel and at
neutral (centre).

Caution: after tightening the grubscrews check that the pushrods are securely
fixed. If either of them should work loose, the model is likely to crash.
