DISCLAIMER

    Please trial fit all the parts. Make sure you have the

before gluing! This will assure proper assembly. This 

kit is hand made from natural materials, every plane

made. However, you should find the fit superior and 

assembly simple.

harsh chemicals including the following: paint thinner, 

C/A glue accelerator, C/A glue debonder and 

acetone. Do not let these chemicals come in contact 

with the colors on the covering and the plastic parts.

wheel pants are made of fiberglass, the fibers of 

which may cause eye, skin and respiratory tract 

irritation. Never blow into a part to remove fiberglass 

dust, as the dust will blow back into your eyes. 

Always wear safety goggles, a particle mask and 

rubber gloves when grinding, drilling and sanding 

fiberglass parts. Vacuum the parts and the work area 

thoroughly after working with fiberglass parts.

IMPORTANT BUILDING NOTES

  To avoid scratching your new airplane, do not 

unwrap the pieces until they are needed for 

assembly. Cover your workbench with an old towel or 

brown paper, both to protect the aircraft and to 

protect the table. Keep a couple of jars or bowls 

handy to hold the small parts after you open the bag.

SUGGESTION

    Always operate in open areas, away from factories,

    hospitals, schools, buildings and houses etc.   

    NEVER fly your aircraft close to people or built up

    areas.

    dangerous areas including airports, motorways etc.

    days.

    ALWAYS adjust the engine from behind the

    propeller, and do not allow any part of your body to

    be in line with the propeller.

    clothing (ties, shirt sleeves, scarves) or any other 

    loose objects that could be caught or drawn in, 

    away from the propeller. Take care at ALL times.

    NEVER use damaged or deformed propellers 

    or spinners.

    Keep all onlookers (especially small children and

    animals) well back from the area of operation. This
