Assembling the model
The model requires little work before it is ready for the air, but the following instruc-
tions must still be observed very carefully to ensure that the first flight in particular is
successful.
The first step is to open the canopy by grasping it at the front end as shown, and
pulling it upward. This requires considerable force, as the strong magnetic latch is
designed to hold the canopy with total security even during aerobatics. Once the
canopy has been removed, the two wing panels can be fitted to the fuselage: first
thread the servo leads forward through the opening in the fuselage.
