IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ
BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER, THERE ARE A FEW
ITEMS THAT WE WISH TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION
.
SINCE THE MANUAL WAS CREATED, THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF REAL
WORLD FLIGHT TESTING PERFORMED BY A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT OWNER/
PILOTS OVER A PERIOD OF MONTHS.
THEIR FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS:-
1.
IF USING AN ENGINE LARGER THEN 50CC THEN
FLYING WIRES
ARE RECOMMENDED
. WHILE THE WIRE MATERIAL IS NOT
INCLUDED WITH THE KIT, SUITABLE FLYING WIRES CAN BE
CONSTRUCTED FROM 125 LB FISHING LINE. YOU WILL REQUIRE TO
PURCHASE LINE, CLEVISES AND LINE/CLEVIS CONNECTERS.
2.
ALSO, WHILE THE CA TYPE HINGES ARE SATISFACTORY FOR A
50CC POWERED AIRCRAFT, IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED HAT
YOU USE
ROBART ¼ SCALE STEEL HINGED POINT HINGES
FOR
AIRCRAFT POWERED BY STONGER ENGINES.
They are simply to install and installation instructions are included with the
point hinges. A drill jig is also included with most hinge packages.
3.
THE INDICATED CG IS A GREAT STARTING POINT; HOWEVER YOU
MAY MOVE THE CG BACK, A LITTLE AT A TIME UP TO 1 INCH. BUT
BE WARE
, WHILE A REARWARD CG IS GREAT FOR 3D MANUVERS,
THE AIRCRAFT COULD BECOME UNSTABLE.
4.
IT IS SUGGESTED THAT YOU SET UP YOUR RADIO EXPODENTIAL
SETTINGS TO 45 OR GREATER. JUST REMEMBER THAT WITH 4
ACTIVE AILERONS, THE PITTS IS VERY REACTIVE TO INPUT.
Now, let’s get back to the manual. I hope you enjoy this building and flying
experience.
