Remember that this setting is at hover and must be fine tuned in conjunction with the revolution mixing on your
transmitter. Set your control throws so that your swashplate tilts without any binding. Note that the swashplate must
tilt to the left when left stick is applied and right when right is applied as well as forward and backward. Set the tail
throw so you will get slightly more travel to the right than to the left. This will help to balance the tail control feel
STEP 20 Canopy and Decal
Ninja Pro canopy.
Start it trimming the outside flange to 1/4 of an inch.
Then trim out the back of the canopy that wont be
used. This is done by scribing a line about half
the thickness of the plastic with a sharp hobby
knife. After the plastic has been scribed the
plastic can be pulled apart rather easily.
It is advisable to practice on some scap
material from the back first. After
trimming is done the canopy is
painted on the inside. We have
found the Pactra R/C paints
to work best. The blue protec
tive film should be left on the
canopy to protect it from over spray during the painting. After the paint is dry glue the two halves together with Zap a
Dap a Goo. Use clothespins to hold the two halves together while the glue dries. After the glue dries remove the
protective film and admire your canopy.
Pro Master Canopy.
The Pro master canopy is molded out of white styrene plastic. The right side
of the canopy has a molded- in lip that will allow the canopy halves to overlap
when finished. Trim this lip to 3/16 inch, remove the back and cockpit area.
The left side of the canopy is simply trimmed to a strait line again remove the
back and cockpit area Trial fit the two halves together by taping them together
from the inside. This will tell you if you need to do more trimming on the left
side or not. When you are satisfied with the fit, tape the two halve together
from the inside once again. Carefully wick some liquid plastic model
cement into the joint between the two halves. When the glue has dried
remove the tape from the inside. It is advisable to go over the inside
of the seam with a bead of Zap a Dap a Goo. Next trim the windshield
with a pair of curved scissors following the provided line.
Tape the windshield to the canopy and again carefully wick
some liquid model cement into the seam. After this is
dry apply the decals and you are finished.
