See pictures below:
3) While holding the clasp firmly in place,
use a pen and outline the clasp onto the rud-
der.
4) Remove the clasp, and using a model-
ing knife, remove the covering from inside the
lines you drew. Use 220 grit sandpaper and
carefully roughen the inside surface of the ny-
lon clasp.
Control clasp.
2mm x 20mm.
5) Slide the clasp back into position and
carefully glue it into place using Kwik Bond Thin
C/A. Hold the clasp in place until the glue com-
pletely cures. Rescue the clap with bolt and
nut as picture below.
INSTALLING PILOT AND CANOPY.
BALANCING.
1) It is critical that your airplane be bal-
anced correctly. Improper balance will cause
your plane to lose control and crash. The cen-
ter of gravity is located
5 -6cm
back from the
leading edge of the wing, measured at the
wing tip.
2) If the nose of the plane falls, the plane
is nose heavy. To correct this first move the
battery pack further back in the fuselage. If
this is not possible or does not correct it, stick
small amounts of lead weight on the fuselage
sides under the horizontal stabilizer. If the tail
of the plane falls, the plane is tail heavy. To
correct this, move the battery and receiver for-
ward orif this is not possible, stick weight onto
the firewall or use a brass heavy hub spinner
hub. When balanced correctly, the airplane
should sit level or slightly nose down when you
lift it up with your fingers.
CONTROL THROWS.
1) We highly recommend setting up the
AT6
using the control throws listed at right. We
have listed control throws for both Low Rate
(initial test flying/sport flying) and High Rate
(aerobatic flying).
ATTACHMENT WING-FUSELAGE.
2mm x 8mm.
Glue.
2) Using a ruler and a pen place a mark
onto the bottom of the rudder, in front of the
rear edge of the tail wheel wire. The back edge
of the clasp should line up with this mark.
You may find it necessary to bend the tail wheel
wire down slightly so it lines up with the clasp
without binding.
1) Align the tail wheel wire so that the wire
is parallel with the bottom of the rudder. The
control clasp has a predrilled hole through the
top of it. Slide this hole onto the tail wheel wire
while sliding the clasp over the bottom of the
rudder.
