When the glue has set hard, apply white glue (PVA wood adhesive) to any gaps
between the fuselage and wing panels for increased strength.
Fix the access hatch in place using the two screws supplied.
Connect the aileron servo to the extension lead, and press the lead into the cable
channel.
Place the main undercarriage units in the supports and secure them using the saddle
clamps and screws supplied.
Slide the noseleg into the aluminium sleeve, and tighten the grubscrew to secure it.
Fix the horn to the elevator using the retaining screws and spreader plate; snip off
excess screw length and file the ends flush with the plate. Note that the horn is actuated
from the left-hand side.
Glue the tailplane to the fin, taking care to keep the panels exactly at right-angles.
Set the elevator servo to neutral. Open up the hole in the servo output arm to the
appropriate diameter for the pushrod. Connect the pushrod at one end, adjust its length
and connect the other end.
Connect the elevator servo to the extension lead before gluing the tailplane to the
fuselage.
Apply white glue (PVA wood glue) to any gaps between the fuselage and fin for
increased strength.
If you wish, the cockpit can be fitted out with a dummy pilot, Order No. 916.3 (not
included in the kit), after trimming it to the size required.
Glue the canopy in place.
Fill a spray bottle with water and mix in a squirt of liquid detergent. Spray a little of this
mixture on the rear of the transfer and wait a while for the paper to soak up the moisture.
When the transfer can be shifted on the backing paper, slide it carefully onto the model
in the appropriate position and gently dab any remaining water from the surface using a
piece of paper towel.
Connect the servo leads to the receiver output sockets in the appropriate sequence (see
RC system instructions), fit the receiver in its compartment, and deploy the aerial lead
along the fuselage. We recommend using an SPCM receiver in this model. The flight
battery should be fitted in the battery compartment and secured with blocks of foam.
