Note: As with all kits, it’s a good idea to read all the instructions and study the parts before you begin
construction. Handle the parts of this kit with care so you do not damage any of the structure or covering.
Inspect all the parts for any shipping damage and report any issues to as soon as you can. Make sure you
have a flat and sturdy workbench and follow all safety advice for the tools and adhesives you plan to use.
AIRCRAFT COVERING
1.
With all ARFs, varying temperatures and storage delays can cause covering material to loosen over time
and transportation. We recommend lightly going over all the covering with a covering iron set at medium
temperatures. Be sure to use a soft cover over your iron so you do not scratch the covering surface. Be
sure you go over all seams and edges of the covering to assure it is secure to the airframe and other
covering. Be careful not to apply too much heat or you may cause bubbles or damage to the covering. A
heat gun may also be used along with a soft cotton cloth to shrink and adhere the covering. Again, be
extremely careful when using a heat gun.
2. Be sure to seal any exposed wood with a thin coating of epoxy to prevent engine oil from soaking in. This
is especially important around the engine compartment and servo openings with exposed areas.
3. Some modelers prefer to seal the hinge gaps using strips of appropriate covering or clear trim tape. We
have found this to be helpful with models intended for higher speed flight or models with unusually large
hinge gaps. Our aircraft utilize a very tight double beveled hinge line and do not normally require this step.
Sealing the hinge gaps is therefore left as an option for the modeler.
Please verify the accessories before assemble:
