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.

The ideal C.G. position is 85mm ( 3.35 in ) 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.

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
adjusted aircraft.
pre -
Make sure the air field is spacious, never fly the plane too close to people and never get
too close to a running propeller.
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.
is specially designed to be powered by 2c 0.46-0.55 or 4c 0.70-0.81
engine,using a more powerful engine does not mean better performance.
In fact, over powered
engine may
cause severe damage and injuries.
When Flaps are lowered, nose of model will rise. The nose-up varies with the speed at which
the model is flying when you lower the flaps and the extent to which they are lowered. Check
effect of flaps at higher altitude to avoid surprises during landing. You may apply down trim
of the elevator to compensate for the nose-up effect when
lowering the flaps. Taking off with
flaps lowered is not recommended, as the increased drag may require a longer runway and
more engine power for the model.
Should you require to bend the landing gear wire, please insert a round metal bar into the
spring ring and apply force there as leverage. Bending the wire directly may damage the
mounting block structure.
Round metal bar
Landing Gear
Should you need to bend the landing gear wire, use the radio control to open or
close the gear to 25% from fully retracted position and switch off the receiver. It
is safe to bend the wire in this position. Bending the wire in fully open position
may damage the supporting structure.
