Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the AEOLUS-F3P.
The AEO LUS-F 3P ARF has super slow flight responsiveness so you can fly
high-alpha 3D with authority. Its carbon fiber reinforced AEOL US-F3 P
construction provides the solid, precise feel of a balsa profile plane without the
weight. This allows you to fly the AEOLUS -F3P ARF outside in windier
conditions that would keep most other profile foamies grounded. The AE OLUSF3P ARF is another exciting addition to TECH ONE's outstanding line of electric
RC aircraft and accessories.
TECH ONE uses top-quality engineering and materials in everything it makes, so
you always get the maximum level of value and fun. TECH ONE backs all of its
products with the best customer service and support in the hobby so your electric
flight experience is always a positive one.
These assembly instructions are designed to guide you through the entire
assembly process of your new airplane in the least amount of time possible. Along
the way you'll learn how to properly assemble your new airplane and also learn
tips that will help you in the future. We have listed some of our recommendations
below. Please read through them before beginning assembly.

PRO TIP: After flying the airplane, you may want
to add right and/or down thrust to the motor. You
can do this by adding thin washers between the
motor mount and the firewall.
Seek Assistance
If you are new to R/C we suggest you find an experienced pilot to check out your aircraft and help you with
the first few flights.This will help prevent damage to your model and will speed up the learning process
and making your R/C experience all the more enjoyable. You can contact local R/C clubs or your dealer
to obtain the names of experienced R/C pilots who would be willingto help you with your first few flights.
Although this is an ARF (Almost-Ready-to-Fly) kit, it does have some construction features that can be
challenging to the less experienced modeler. If you encounter difficulty in any construction sequence,
please feel free to contact one of our technicians, we stand ready to provide any assistance we can.

C
Balance Point
The Center of Gravity (C/G or Balance Point) is 2.3 6" (60mm)
from the leading edge of the wing, measured at the center of
the wing.
WARNING For test flying and general sport flying, we suggest
you balance the airplane at the C/G recommended above. For
3D flying, you may want to experiment moving the C/G back in
small increments until you're satisfied with the result.

Motor Thrust
To ensure great flight performance and to be able
to trim your airplane properly, it is critical that you
adjust the motor thrust as described. We suggest
that you add 2 degrees of down-thrust and 1
degrees of right-thrust. This can be achieved by
adding a washer or two behind the top and right
side of the motor (between the motor and the
firewall). When set properly, the trim for the
elevator and the rudder should be neutral. Finetune the down-thrust and right-thrust until this trim
is achieved.
