Thank you for purchasing the Model Tech Apex 3D EP ARF. We're confident that the quality of your new airplane meets and
even exceeds your expectations. Before completing the final assembly of your new airplane, please carefully read through
these assembly instructions in their entirety. Doing so will ensure your success the first time around!
These assembly instructions are designed to guide you through the entire assembly process of your new airplane in the least amount
of time possible. Along the way you'll learn how to properly assemble your new airplane and also learn tips that will help you in the
future. We have listed some of our recommendations below. Please read through them before beginning assembly.
●
Please read through each step before beginning assembly. You
should find the layout very complete and straightforward. Our goal
is to guide you through assembly without any of the headaches
and hassles that you might expect.
●
There are check boxes next to each procedure. After you
complete a procedure, check off the box. This will help prevent
you from losing your place.
●
Cover your work table with brown paper or a soft cloth, both to
protect the table and to protect the parts.
●
Keep a couple of small bowls or jars handy to put the small parts
in after you open the accessory bags.
●
We're all excited to get a new airplane in the air, but take your
time. This will ensure you build a straight, strong and great flying
airplane.
