The stop on the right is 1/8” ply and is located between the two engraved lines.

Install the tray forward end first then slide it into the locked position.
4.
Cut the rough side of the Velcro strip down to 5” in length, and attach it to the top of
the battery tray so that it’s centered on the battery’s position.
5.
Attach the soft side of the Velcro strip to the bottom of your battery pack.
6.
After you attach the battery pack onto the mount, run the 6” double-sided Velcro strip
underneath the battery mount, around the top of the battery pack, and then secure it
to itself snugly. This acts as a seatbelt, holding the battery pack securely in place.
Typically, losing your battery in mid-flight is a bad thing…a
very
bad thing…
Attaching the Landing Gear
The landing gear is pressed onto the T nuts and screwed in place. Use washers over the
hex head screws and don’t over tighten the screws or you will crush the balsa fuselage
bottom.
Attaching the Canopy
1.
Glue one magnet to the bottom rear of the canopy base, centered on the base. Use
thick CA. You may want to lightly sand the magnet where you apply the glue to
ensure a good bond.
2.
Allow the second magnet to stick to the first magnet to assure the polarity is correct.
3.
Apply a drop of thick CA to the end of the second magnet and press the canopy into
position in the fuselage, allowing the second magnet to bond the magnet holder in the
fuselage. Allow at least five minutes to ensure a proper bond.
