19. You   may   need   to   install  the  remote  glow  plug
extension wire (No.AT6078) for easy igniting as well as
the precision fueler valve (No.1115) for easy fueling.

20. Install a diverter(No.1114 or 1114-Y) and drill an exit
hole  at  the  bottom  of the fuselage as shown. You may
extend the diverter to fuselage exhaust pipe to obtain a
more scale-like look.

21. Install the tail transmission case and tail rotor, 
remember to replace 3x23mm Socket Screws as 
indicated.  You may need to trim the fuselage for easy 
installation of the ball link in place and clear out the 
space for tail pitch control lever.

22. Same  to  the  other  side,   trim  away  the  fuselage
where you may use tool to secure the locknut.

23.  Trim  the  FRP  case  cover  as  shown to avoid any
contact with the transmission case.

24. Glue the plywood doublers at four corners inside 
the fuselage. Place the cover in position then drill 
1.5mm(1/16”) pilot hole on case and fuselage.  Next 
Secure the cover in place with 2x8mm wood screws.

25. Cut  the  LED  legs  and  glue the  LED on the Fin for
scale look.

26. Trim windshield, sunroof and windows then trial fit 
in place.  Carefully make drill marks on windshield (6 
marks), sunroof (3 marks each), front side window (4 
marks each), front lower window(4 marks each) and 
bottom window(3 marks each). Drill 1/16”(1.5mm) 
holes then secure the windows in place. Apply tiny 
Loctite or CA for each screw to prevent from loose.  You 
may skip the installation rear side windows as it is 
easier for you in case of tuning engine or adjustment 
and it also gets better cooling.

27. Install the fittings as shown includes wiper, pitot 
tube, antenna. 
Drill 2mm hole and use the retaining collar to hold the 
fitting in place. After adjusting the fitting properly, 
apply tiny CA on the collar to prevent it loosed. For 
wiper, secure the strut on the wiper mount with 2x6mm 
screw and M2 nut. Apply Loctite on the screw to 
prevent it from loose.

28. Drill two holes for handle bar one is 5/64”(2mm) 
and the other is 1/32”(1mm).
Secure the handle bar in place with the retaining collar. 
Apply CA to prevent it from loose.  Do the same way at 
the other side.

29. Locate  a   laser-cut  plywood   then   assemble   the
battery  tray  as  shown.   Firmly  secure the battery tray
with epoxy inside the front fuselage at the very front end. 

30. Suggest   to   use   4-cell   3600mAh   NiMH   battery
(No.2890) for balance and longer flight time. Secure the
battery in place with rubber band as shown.
