Item code:BH131.

  

                                   

Instruction Manual

Caution:

 this model is not a toy!

If you are a beginner to this type of powered

model, please ask an experienced model flyer

for help and support. If you attempt to operate

the model without knowing what you are doing

you could easily injure yourself or somebody

else. Please keep your safety and well-being

in mind at all times.

Important:

 

before you start construction

Even if you have already built a large number

of RC models please read right through these

instructions and check all the kit components

against the parts list. We have taken great

trouble to keep construction as simple as

possible, without making any compromises

in the area of safety.

Note regarding the film covering

Minor creases or bubbles may develop in the

film covering due to major fluctuations in

weather conditions (temperature, humidity

etc.); in rare cases you may even find a slight

warp in a component. These minor faults are

in the nature of film-covered built-up wooden

structures, and can easily be corrected using

a heat gun, as commonly used for modelling.

Caution! do not heat the film more than is

absolutely necessary. If the air or the iron is

too hot, the film may melt and holes may be

formed.

This model is highly pre-fabricated and can

be built in a very short time. However, the work

which you have to carry out is important and

must be done carefully . The model will only

be strong and fly well if you complete your

tasks competently - so please work slowly and

accurately.

When self-tapping screws have to be
screwed into wood, apply a little white glue
to prevent them shaking loose: just squirt
white glue into the hole and fit the screw.

Creases:

Blow warm air over the area

and rub down with a soft

cloth.

            SAFETY PRECAUTION.

Wing warp:

Hold the panel twisted gently

in the opposite direction to

the warp, and apply warm

air to remove the creases

from the covering.
