Assembling the model
The model can very quickly be prepared for the air, but it is important to read and
observe the following notes, as this will avoid problems, especially on the first flight.
Note: To open the cockpit canopy, hold the rear portion by the sides and pull it
upward. This procedure may require a relatively great amount of force. However, the
holding power of the cockpit closure will lessen after a few opening attempts.
Connect the elevator horn as shown in the pictures, then fix the tailplane to the top of
the fin using the M4 x 25 mm countersunk screw (shown already fitted in the photo).
