Congratulations! 

 

Kangke Industrial USA, Inc. brings you one of the finest ARF HURRICANE models available. Skilled 
craftsmen combined with top grade materials and precision jigs have all come together to produce an 
aircraft with outstanding flight qualities. If you follow the directions carefully the performance of this 
aircraft will surely please you. 

 

WARNING!

  As model aircraft get larger and more powerful, the risk for injury increases. Kangke’s 

extensive testing procedures insure a high quality kit that has gone through many steps to provide you 
with a safe reliable airframe. Nothing we can do however will make up for poor assembly or irresponsible 
behavior at the field. A model of this size traveling at 80 MPH contains enough energy that if it were to 
contact another person, the injuries would be extensive possibly fatal. The safe operation of this model is 
your responsibility and yours alone. If you are a beginner or have never flown a model of this size and 
power, you should 

not

 make the attempt without the help of an experienced pilot.

If you are familiar with the assembly of ARF type airplanes, you will find the following assembly 
sequence to be unusual. The sequence was designed to speed assembly. The hurricane was designed as 
a competition aircraft, capable of being shipped to and from events. Because of some of the special 
features found in the Hurricane, like the removable tail assembly, the build up may seem out of order. 
Please follow the assembly instructions as written. The hurricane will take approximately 20-25 hours 
to complete. 
 
The following additional items will also be needed to build the HURRICANE 
HOBBY ITEMS: 
Radio 4-channel min.                               

4 oz. 30 min. epoxy 

5-6 servos 

 

 

Control rods   

    

Fuel line 20-inches                                   

Thin CA .5 oz. 

Motor 
Muffler            
 

HOUSEHOLD ITEMS: 

Popsicle sticks 
Hobby knife 

Med. CA 1 oz. 
Paper towels 
Alcohol 

Masking tape 
Ruler 
Felt tip pen 
Screw drivers 
Pliers 
Wax paper 
5/32 drill 
1/8 drill 

 

 

       

Read each step of the instructions carefully. Be sure you understand what is required and what the 
procedure is before you glue or cut anything. How well you assemble this model will have a direct effect 
on its flight characteristics.
