Secure the receiver in the fuselage using the receiver mounting, Order No. 1665. 
 
Assembling the ELEKTRO KADETT 
We recommend that you permanently connect two short (100 mm) servo extension leads to the aileron 
servo sockets on the receiver (channels 2 and 5), as this makes it much easier to rig the model at the 
flying site. 
Connect the aileron servos to the extension leads, fit the central wing locating tongue in the slot in the 
fuselage  former,  and  fix  the  wing  to  the  fuselage  using  the  two  plastic  screws  supplied.  Tighten  the 
screws just to the point where the wings are held securely to the fuselage - don’t overtighten them. 
 
Balancing the ELEKTRO KADETT 
Assemble the model completely, ready to fly (including flight battery), and support it on both sides of 
the fuselage at a point about 90 mm aft of the wing root leading edge. The model should now balance 
level, with the nose slightly down. Add lead ballast to the tail or nose if necessary. The model is now 
ready  to  fly,  but  not before  you have checked  that all  control surfaces  are  exactly  at centre  (neutral) 
when the transmitter controls and trims are also at centre. 
 
Control surface travels (normal flying) 
Ailerons 

approx. 12 mm up, 12 mm down 

Elevator 

approx. 10 mm up, 10 mm down 

Rudder 

approx. 20 mm right, 20 mm left 

 
We recommend that you set 35% EXPO on all control surfaces. 
 
Important: 
When  fitting  and  adjusting  the  various  linkages  you  should  ensure  that  they  move  freely,  without 
binding,  are  able  to  move  to  their  full  extent  -  including  trim  travel  -  and  are  not  obstructed 
mechanically at any point. 
When you move the rudder stick to the right, the rudder should also deflect to the right (left stick: left 
rudder).  Pull  the  elevator  stick  back  towards  you,  and  the  elevator  must  deflect  up  (stick  forward: 
elevator down). If you move the aileron stick to the right, the right aileron should rise, the left aileron 
fall. When you move the throttle stick forward, the motor should run at full power. 
All that remains is to wish you many hours of pleasure flying your ELEKTRO KADETT! 
 
 
Yours - the Graupner team.
