Please dry fit wing joiner into left and right wing to make sure they fit with the proper
dihedral angle, mark the wing joiner if necessary. Apply epoxy glue to both sides of
all surfaces in contact. Use a stick to apply the glue to inner side of wing joiner sleeve,
and apply the glue to wing joiner before putting them together. Wing joiner not glued
properly will lead to wing failure and plane crash.
Apply epoxy glue to the linkage wire BEFORE applying

Important Safety Precautions
# First time flyer should never fly by himself / herself. Assistance from experienced flyer is absolutely
necessary.
# Pre-flight adjustment must be done before flying, it is very dangerous to fly a badly pre-adjusted
aircraft.
# is specially designed to be powered by 2C 0.40 engine or 450W motor system.
# Make sure the air field is spacious, never fly the plane too close to people and never get too close
to a running propeller. Extreme caution should be exercised when working with electric powered
models. Make sure the propeller is cleared of all objects, especially your hands before connecting
the battery to the model. Make sure you understand the operation of the ESC (Electronic Speed
Control) by studying the ESC manual. Once you plug in the battery for electric powered model,
always treat the propeller as a rotating one, as accidental movement of the throttle stick will spin
the propeller and could cause injuries.
# If you find wrinkles on the covering as a result of weather changes, you can use hot iron to remove
the wrinkles. Please begin with lower temperature setting and gradually raise the temperature until
the wrinkles are gone. Too hot an iron may damage the covering. Don't use hot iron near the seams
or edges, hot iron will melt the glue and shrink the covering at the same time, causing the seams to
pull away.
# Check and re-tighten up all factory assembled screws, use thread locker if necessary.
Warning!
The ideal C.G. position is 80mm ( 3.15in ) behind the leading edge
measured at where the wing meets the fuselage. In order to obtain
the C.G. specified, add weight to the fuselage or move the battery
position. Check the C.G. before flying.
