Notes
These instructions were written based upon the
prototype kit from the Fei Bao factory. Please
note that the kit and components may have
undergone changes through the production
process. Center of Gravity and control surface
throws were confirmed as a good starting point
through limited flight testing, but it is important
that you contact your Fei Bao representative prior
to your first flight to obtain the most current
information on these important parameters.
Begin construction by prepping the airframe
If already assembled, remove the bypass
modules from the airframe (see photo). They
are attached by two bolts accessed through the
hatch on each side.
Remove the engine hatch covers, marking
them for side and orientation as you do so.
Using a hand pump and a short piece of tubing,
check each of the gear door air cylinders for
leaks. If they hold air under pressure, secure
the nuts and bolts attaching the cylinders to
the fuselage and doors with a small drop of
thin CA.
Insert the stabs, wings and vertical stabs into
their respective mounts. Check each mount for
security, tightening bolts and nuts if necessary.
it is recommended that you run a bead of
Aeropoxy around the mounts to secure them
firmly in position on their formers.
Check all accessible areas for the integrity of
glue joints and add Aeropoxy if necessary. Pay
special attention to the formers that secure the
horizontal stab bearings, adding glue to make
sure they are firmly affixed to the fuselage.
Take care not to get any glue into the bearing
components.
Join fuselage halves and bolt securely in five
places.
