1.
2.
Vent tube.
Fuel fill tube.
Fuel pick up tube.
- Carefully bend the second nylon tube up at a 45º angle. is tube is the vent tube.
- Test t the stopper assembly into the tank. It may be necessary to remove some of the ashing around the tank opening using a modeling knife. If ashing is present, make sure none falls into the tank.
2.
INSTALLING THE STOPPER ASSEMBLY
- Using a modeling knife, carefully cut o the rear portion of one of the 3 nylon tubes leaving 1/2” protruding from the rear of the stopper. is will be the fuel pick up tube.
- Using a modeling knife, cut one length of sili­con fuel line. Connect one end of the line to the weighted fuel pick up and the other end to the ny­lon pick up tube.
- With the stopper assembly in place, the weighted pick-up should rest away from the rear of the tank and move freely inside the tank. e top of the vent tube should rest just below the top of the tank. It should not touch the top of the tank.
- When satised with the alignment of the stopper assembly tighten the 3 x 20mm machine screw un­til the rubber stopper expands and seals the tank opening. Do not overtighten the assembly as this could cause the tank to split.
FUEL TANK INSTALLATION
1.
1.
You should mark which tube is the vent and which is the fuel pickup when you attach fuel tubing to the tubes in the stopper. Once the tank is installed inside the fuselage, it may be dicult to determine which is which.
33
P-47D underbolt 60 Kit
Instruction Manual.

HINGING THE FLAP
Note : e control surfaces, including the ailerons,
elevators, and rudder, are prehinged with hinges in­stalled, but the hinges are not glued in place. It is imperative that you properly adhere the hinges in place per the steps that follow using a high-quality thin C/A glue.
- Carefully remove the ap from one of the wing panels. Note the position of the hinges.
- Deect the ap and completely saturate each hinge with thin C/A glue. e ailerons front surface should lightly contact the wing during this proce­dure. Ideally, when the hinges are glued in place, a 1/64” gap or less will be maintained throughout the lengh of the ap to the wing panel hinge line.
NOTE : e hinge is constructed of a special material that allows the C/A to wick or penetrate and distribute throughout the hinge, secure­ly bonding it to the wood structure of the wing panel and ap.
1.
- Remove each hinge from the wing panel and ap and place a T-pin in the center of each hinge. Slide each hinge into the wing panel until the T-pin is snug against the wing panel. is will help ensure an equal amount of hinge is on either side of the hinge line when the ap is mounted to the aileron.
2.
3.
C/A glue.
- Turn the wing panel over and deect the ap in the opposite direction from the opposite side. Ap­ply thin C/A glue to each hinge, making sure that the C/A penetrates into both the aileron and wing panel.
- Using C/A remover/debonder and a paper towel, remove any excess C/A glue that may have accu­mulated on the wing or in the ap hinge area.
- Slide the wing panel on the ap until there is only a slight gap. e hinge is now centered on the wing panel and ap. Remove the T-pins and snug the aileron against the wing panel. A gap of 1/64” or less should be maintained between the wing panel and ap.
- Repeat this process with the other wing panel, se­curely hinging the aileron in place.
- Aer both ap are securely hinged, rmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to make sure the hinges are securely glued and cannot be pulled out. Do this by carefully applying medium pressure, trying to separate the ap from the wing panel. Use cau­tion not to crush the wing structure.

C/A glue.
- Turn the wing panel over and deect the aileron in the opposite direction from the opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each hinge, making sure that the C/A penetrates into both the aileron and wing panel.
- Using C/A remover/debonder and a paper towel, remove any excess C/A glue that may have accu­mulated on the wing or in the aileron hinge area.

Because the size of servos dier, you may need to adjust the size of the precut opening in the mount. e notch in the sides of the mount allow the servo lead to pass through.
- Using a small weight (Weighted fuel pick-up works well) and string, feed the string through the wing as indicated.
- Place the servo between the mounting blocks and space it from the hatch. Use a pencil to mark the mounting hole locations on the blocks.
- A string has been provided in the wing to pull the aileron lead through to the wing root. Remove the string from the wing at the servo location and use the tape to attach it to the servo extension lead. Pull the lead through the wing and remove the string.

BALANCING
- 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 100 MM BACK FROM THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WING AT THE WING ROOT.
- Mount the wing to the fuselage. Using a cou­ple of pieces of masking tape, place them on the bottom side of the wing 100=mm back from the leading edge of the wing at the wing root.
- With the model upright, place your gers on the masking tape and carefully lif the plane.
- Lif the model. If the tail drops when you li the model is “tail heavy” and you must add weight* to the nose. If the nose drops, it is “nose heavy” and you must add weight* to the tail to balance.
*If possible, st attempt to balance the model by changing the position of the receiver battery and receiver. If you are unable to obtain good balance by doing so, then it will be necessary to add weight to the nose or tail to achieve the proper balance point.
1.
100mm.
- Do not turn plane upside down. Only low wing models should be turned upsidedown for balancing. Remove this paragraph, it is not in­tended for use in the instructions. it is a note for you.High Wing models must be balanced upright.
- Accurately mark the balance point on the botttom of the wing on both sides of the fuse­lage. e balance point is located 100 mm back from the leading edge of the wing at the wing root. is is the balance point at which your model should balance for your st ghts. Later, you may wish to experiment by shing the bal­ance up to 10mm forward or back to change the ing characteristics. Moving the balance forward may improve the smoothness and arrow- like tracking, but it may then require more speed for take of and make it more dilt to slow down for landing. Moving the balance af makes the model more agile with a lighter and snappier ”feel”. In any case,please start at the location we recommend.
- With the wing attached to the fuselage, all parts of the model installed ( ready to), and empty fuel tanks, hold the model at the marked balance point with the stabilizer level..
