Instructional Manual

REV 3.0

Congratulations on your purchase of the “

Vortex-RC VT-AllRounder

”

– An airplane

that excels as a 3 channel trainer for first time fliers,
introduces ailerons to intermediate fliers and also
provides a platform for fully aerobatic platform to
perform any pattern maneuver in the book. A
perfect Allrounder.

Please take time to read through this manual in
detail as well as watch our videos that illustrate the
build steps. We recommend that you read several
steps ahead and test fit parts without using glue and
once you double check everything then only use the
adhesive. Our precision laser cutting ensures you will need minimal or no modifications to parts for a
fit, and that all fits are tight and accurate. If you find any part that does not fit properly, please read
the instructions and see pictures again to reorient/align correctly before using any glue.

We have written this manual so that the kit can be built individually as well as by groups of
students/builders. Please follow the build in the order as written below.
Additionally we have given 2 check mark places besides each step.

Check mark the first box when you complete the step. Check mark the second one, after you double
check the step, or when doing group builds have your project coordinator inspect and check it for you.

Watch our build videos, now on Youtube.

From unboxing to the maiden flight, we have it all on videos for you to
see, learn and follow to ensure you get the most out of the Speedsters.
