Now repeat for the other wing.
Fuselage
Mounting Trays
There are two equipment mounting trays included within the kit and may be used
depending on your chosen system. In the case of this model these were used as
templates for new trays as the cut-outs did not match our intended set up. A further
mounting tray was fabricated to be located above the intake ducts to accommodate the
turbine pump and ECU, pictures of mounting trays are detailed in further assembly
sections below.
Fuel Tanks
Firstly locate the fuel tanks and the fuel tank components. The fuel system contains
three tanks holding approximately 3.9 litres. If required an additional tank may be
fitted to increase capacity for larger turbines.
The hole in the tank will need to be enlarged with a dremel or similar tool to fit the
fuel tank bung fitting. Once enlarged glue the fitting using hysol and leave to dry.
Attach the missile rails to the
wings using the bolts supplied.
Trial fit the missiles and once
satisfied remove as they may be
damaged if left attached to the
wings. Fit just before flight.
