A QUICK WORD ABOUT SAFETY AND RADIO CONTROL FLYING MODELS
With radio control aircraft, like any hobby or sport, there are certain risks. The operator
of these models is responsible for these risks. If misused or abused, you may cause serious
bodily injury and/or damage to property. With this in mind, you will want to be certain that you
build your model carefully and correctly. If you are not an experienced flier, have your work
checked by an experienced pilot and ask for help in learning to fly the model safely. This
model aircraft is not a toy and must be oper at ed and flown in a safe manner at all times.
Always perform a pre-flight check of the model which includes proper movements of all
control surfaces, proper function of the radio gear, structural integrity, and radio range.
Models are not insurable but operators are. You can obtain coverage through

membership in the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA). For an AMA information package
• 20-35cc gas engine
Required engine and exhaust mounting
• Covering iron and heat gun
call 1-800-435-9262, ex t. 292 or visit the AMA website at "www.modelaircraft .org".
By the act of using the final assembled model, the purchaser/operator accepts all
resulting liability.
Items Required to Complete This Model:
• Appropriate propeller for your engine
•
hardware
• Batteries for ignition and radio system
• Appropriate HD switches
• Receiver of your choice
• Appropriate HD extensions
• 5-6 good quality servos (90oz/in)
Note: As with all kits, it's a good idea to read all the instructions and study the parts before you
begin construction. Handle the parts of this kit with care so you do not damage any of the
structure or covering. Inspect all the parts for any shipping damage and report any issues to
Slipstream dealers as soon as you can. Make sure you have a flat and sturdy workbench and
follow all safety advice for the tools and adhesi ves you plan to use.
AIRCRAFT COVERING:
1. With all ARFs, varying temperatures and storage delays can cause the covering
material to loosen over time during transportation. Slipstream recommends lightly going over
all the covering with a covering iron set at medium temperature. Be sure to use a soft
covering over your iron so that you do not scratch the covering surface. Be sure you go over
all seams and edges of the covering to assure it is secure to the airframe and other covering.
Be careful not to apply too much heat or you may cause bubbles or damage to the covering, A
heat gun may also be used along with a soft cotton cloth to shrink loose coverings. Be
extremely careful when using a heat gun.
2. Be sure to seal any exposed wood with a thin coating of epoxy to prevent engine oil
from soaking in. This is especially important around the engine compartment and servo
openings with exposed areas.
3. Some modelers prefer to seal the hinge gaps using strips of appropriate covering or
clear trim tape. W e have found this to be helpful with models intended for higher speed flight
or models with unusually large hinge gaps. Slipstream aircraft utilize a very tight double
beveled hinge line and do not normally require this step. Sealing the hinge gaps is therefore
left as an option for the modeler.
• Assortments of hobby tools such as
screwdrivers, hobby knife, drill, pliers,
etc.
• Isopropyl alcohol
• Ruler or tape measure
• Blue thread-lock or equivalent
• Thin and thick CA
• 30-minute epoxy
• Canopy Glue

FUSELAGE, STABILIZERS AND TA IL WHEEL A SSEMBLY:
NOTE: Please review this section carefully as you are required to mount the tail wheel
at the same time.
1. Start by prepping the fuselage. Locate the hole for the tail gear at the bottom rear of
the fuselage and use the soldering iron carefully to make a nice clean opening if
necessary.
2. Cut off the supporting tabs where the horizontal stabilizer will slide in. See picture
below.

3. Cut the covering away where the horizontal stabilizer will seat as shown below.
4. Locate the horizontal stabilizer and slide it in the slot as shown in the picture below.
5. Use a ruler (or any of your favorite method) to check for square-ness. Once satisfied,
mark the top and bottom of the horizontal stabilizer to cut away the covering as shown
in the pictures below.

6. Carefully cutaway the covering where the glue will be applied. See pictures below.

7. Prepare some 30 minutes epoxy and apply it to the exposed section of the stabilizer
and install it onto the fuselage. Carefully check the alignment of the stabilizer. Once
satisfied, wipe off the excess epoxy with a paper towel soaked in rubbing alcohol.
8. Locate the tail wheel assembly and prepare it for assembly as shown below.
9. Inser t t he plas ti c guide tube as shown in the pic below.

10. Install the tail wheel through the bottom of the fuselage. See picture below.
11. Locate the vertical stabilizer and rudder. Mount the vertical stabilizer onto the fuselage.
Trial fit the rudder onto the vertical stabilizer and mark the spot where the tail wheel rod
will be bent. See pictures below.
12. Bend the rod at the spot you marked above. See pic below.
