                                        Assembly and Operating manual                                             VIPER 

 

Dear customer,  

 

Congratulations on your choice of a factory 

assembled model aircraft from Max-Thrust

 

and 

thank you for placing your trust in us.    

                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Very little preparation work is required to get this 

model ready to fly. To operate your new model 

safely it is important that you read through all of 

the instructions and safety information included 

with your model, before you fly it for the first 

time.   

 

The illustrations in this manual show the model 

with factory applied decals. 

 

The Power System 

 

The model is powered by a brushless outrunner 

motor and ducted fan, both of which are pre-

installed. 

                                          

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                                                                                                    

The Radio Control System   

      

                                                                                                                                                                                   

To fly the Viper you will need a radio control 

system with at least four channels. 2.4GHz 

radios systems are recommended.   

                                                                      

The servos for the ailerons and the elevators are 

factory-installed. 

 

The power for the receiver is drawn from the 

electronic speed controller’s integral BEC 

system. 

 

The electronic speed controller is located inside 

of the fuselage, in front of the ducted fan. 

 

To check the model’s operating systems, first set 

the control surface servos to neutral by setting 

the trims to center and leaving throttle stick and 

trim to the lowest position. 

 

When you wish to fly the model, always make 

sure the transmitter is “ON”. Move the throttle 

stick to the “OFF” position as well. Then connect 

the battery to the electronic speed controller. 

 

Proceed to power down in reverse order: 

disconnect the battery from the electronic speed 

controller first, and then switch off the 

transmitter. 

Glue Joints With Suitable Adhesives 

   

Foam safe epoxy is recommended and available 

from most reputable model retail shops. 

 

Trial-fit all parts “dry” before applying glue. 

 

Follow the recommended curing time suggested 

by the glue manufacturer. Allow the glue to fully 

cure (harden) to the point where the joint can be 

placed under stress.
