11. Fixing of the wing
When attaching the wings, put the
longer end
of the
connector
into the middle
wing
part.
Close the gap between the wing parts with
adhesive tape
.
By this way, the wing parts are fixed to each other.
12. Check list before starting:
1. Check
centre of gravity
(the angle of attack is pre-set)
2. Check
rudders
:
Do rudders move in the correct direction?
Check the greatest swings of the rudders
All control surfaces are continuously connected to
the wing along the hinge line.
3.
Check
reception
2,4 Ghz: depending on radio controller (f.e. reduce
transmission power)
13. Attention, ErwinXL is sensitive to heat!
Pay attention, that
Elvira does not heat up
! That means,
-
don’t let the model lie in the car, when the sun is
heating up the car.
-
don’t let the model lie in the sun too long. Protect wing
and elevator with bags, if you don’t fly.
-
Avoid all other possibilities to heat up Elvira.
The model is heated up to 50° during production, but in the
sun the model can easily reach higher temperatures. During
flight the model is sufficiently cooled by the airstream.
This sensitiveness is high shortly after production /
purchase and will get less gradually.
