and 1 standard servo is required.
Adhesives - You will need two types of adhesives
for the G202-140 - Epoxy and Instant (cyanoacry-
late) adhesives. We recommend that you purchase
both 5-minute and 30-minute epoxy to cut down on
assembly time, but you can get by with only 30-
minute epoxy if time is not important. You will also
need a small bottle of both “Thick” and “Thin”
instant CA adhesive.
Tools - Model assembly can be much easier if the
proper tools are used. Therefore, we have included
in our checklist to the left, a complete listing of all
the tools we used to assemble our prototype mod-
els. As you will notice, many household tools can be
utilized during construction.
Engine - The Thunder Tiger PRO-120 is the ideal
engine for this airplane. This quiet-running engine is
easy to start, requires no special break-in periods, is
very easy to maintain and will last for years.
