Safety Information
Flying models are not toys, and should only be operated by res­ponsible clear thinking people. Assembling and maintaining mo­dels requires a basic level of technical skill, and a sensible logical approach.
Any error in building, repairing or maintaining the model could result in serious injury or damage. Technical problems or an incor­rectly assembled model may lead to the propeller unexpectedly be­ginning to turn. Always stay out of the vicinity of rotating propellers and never allow any item to come into contact with a spinning prop. As neither the manufacturer or the dealer has any influence over the way that models are operated they can accept no respon­sibility for and damage caused.
If this model is the first radio controlled model which you are att­empting to build or fly, you should secure the assistance of an ex­perienced model pilot. Your local dealer will be able to assist you in locating your local model aircraft club or experienced pilots in your area. NEVER fly your model over people and never operate the model in way which may endanger people or animals. Before your first flight you should conduct a range check of the radio control system, secure the model to a solid object, and ensure that you have full control of all functions with the antennae collapsed over a distance of at least 25 metres. Before and after every flight inspect the model for damage, and rectify any faults before you attempt to take off. The operator is responsible for any damage caused by the operation of flying models.
Always observe any local laws regarding the operation of model aircraft.
Furthermore, the following instructions must be followed:
- The kit contains small parts which may cause choking if swallowed, keep away from small children.
- The model should not be changed in any way, doing so will invalidate the guarantee.
- Never come into contact with rotating parts.
- Do not fly over wet ground or grass as water will damage the models electrical components
- Do not expose the model or batteries to direct sunlight, always keep them in the shade.
- Inspect the model before and after every flight for damage.
- Only ever fly the model if it is in perfect working order.
- The model can only be flown in good weather. Do not fly in wind, rain or thunder storms.
- Find a place to fly which complies with any laws, and is free from obstacles such as trees, houses or power cables.
- Remember that your model is made from such materials as plastic and wood, and as such is inflammable. Keep it away from any open flame, or high temperatures.
- When operating the model, switch on the transmitter first and then the aircraft, switch off in the reverse order.
- Always ensure that the throttle stick is in the low position before you switch on.

• Clear canopy.
• Instructions.
1. Glue the rings on the holes
3. Glue the battery support in a right angle to the frame. The holes for servos on the workbench.
2. Now insert the drive-in nut.
4. Other frames can also be glued. Make sure the battery sup port stays in a right angle.

5. Apply the side piece and glue. The front piece is later taken off to make room for the battery
6. Glue the wing screws support
7. Both wing supports are glued and leave to dry.
9. First of all, only glue the side pieces to the front and leave to dry.
8. Rear and front fuselage pieces are put together as shown.
10. When pulling together, glue the the last ribs first. Make sure all is aligned! A line to align the ribs is helpful at this stage. The last rib should be 100% vertical.

11. Fuselage, upper part: Use 3 mm ply on the left and right side and it is lapping over. The fin is later fitted in the gap.
12. Straighten the fuselage borders and glue to the grooves. The front lower fuselage is covered with 2 mm balsa and sanded the edges to the sides around
13. Glue both 1.5 mm ply rings together
15. The fuselage sides are reinforced with 1.5 mm ply parts to hold the swing tail. Now the lower small frame and the rear fuselage (1.5 mm balsa) are glued in place.
14. Apply the ring as shown. The adapters are a longer in the lower part compared to the upper part. Down thrust is set at 5 - 7˚ up.
16. The fuselage nose is applied in layers and later sanded.

17. Start assembly from the middle and move to the right/ left from there.
18. The layers should overlap each other.
19. The fuselage nose sanded.
21. Use a wet cloth and glue glue to the top in the middle.
20. Now the rear fuselage piece is covered. Use a sheet of balsa and glue to the bottom edge.
22. The front fuselage is covered with 2mm balsa and the edges are sanded round.

23. Fuselage cover on the underside of the cockpit. 24. Rudder
25. Elevator
27. a) Push the elevator right into the „V“. b) Insert the ply-rings from the top, turn and glue to fuselage side. c) The vertical fin should be able to be moved up and down but not to the back.
26. As a pivot, a 4 mm aluminum rod is fitted with a plywood control horn (2 x 1.5 mm) with 5min. Epoxy. The rudder horn is vertical to the fin. Fill the groove, completely with rod and resin.
28. So side movement is avoided the large ply-rings are now put into place. These are only glued to the vertical fin from the outside.

29. Ready assembled pivot-system 30. You can use a pole as shown for the controls. For example: made of 2x3mm balsa (hard) with spring wire in-between. The linkage to the elevator has to be stable once tension is applied and should not deform.
31. Zero clearance fitted linkage.
33. Glue ply braces to the wing spar on both sides.
32. Recommendation: Accurate Digital mini servo.
34. The first ply rib is glued in a right angle.

35. Further ribs are applied to the wing spar in order R9. The last
rib is glued and the others aligned.
36. The servo bay is glued to the underside
37. The first rib is now glued after a 1,5 mm is put under it. This
will help to keep them ribs aligned.
39. The lower cover is cut out.
38. The small dummy rib is now glued to the underside.
40. When covering, place a 1,5 mm piece of wood underneath. The wings get their cant that way.

41. The aileron border is slided in the grooves and glued. 42. The aileron is later taken from the two ribs
43. The tip is now glued together made from 2 x 6 mm balsa.
45. For the wing screws underline the back border approx
25 mm.
44. The wing parts are now covered in the inner/ lower part.
46. The upper part can now be covered. The nose edge is then applied.

47. Sanded 48. The edges are sanded
49. The connection rod is made of 2x 1,5 mm ply which is also
used on the plane. Slot it in once ready.
51. Example for assembly of the servo hatch cover.
50. Glue both parts of the wings together.
52. After the edges between ribs and border are reinforced with small balsa triangles, the ailerons can be taken out.

53. Overlying rib material can now be sanded. 54. So the covering foil does not crease in the region of the aileron, a “frame” is build for the rudder horn made of 1,5 mm balsa. Once the covering is done, the pocket can be cut out and the rudder horn glued into place.
55. The ailerons can be reinforced with diagonal “ribs” to make it
buckling resistant.
56. Finished model.
