3 Assembly instructions
The structure of the model is largely made entirely of wood. For assembling the
RES-Dart is necessarily experience and understanding of the construction of balsa
/ plywood constructions necessary. In addition, the individual components are made of very light
hand-selected balsa wood, which is partly quite fragile and a careful one treatment requires.
The building instructions should be read and understood completely before building.
3.1 Glider hull
Only for the sailor version!
Side parts, base, cover and frames - 3 mm poplar plywood (1 piece each)
( 2 x drawings)
Balsa 6 mm (1 pc.)
(1 x drawing)
The fuselage is designed as a classic box fuselage in plywood construction. He is tall
enough to run the receiver, receiver battery and possibly an altitude logger
accommodate. It is also provided with an adjustable high-start hook.
Danger!
The following individual construction steps refer to the hull in balsa
/ plywood construction.
The structure is analogous, the reinforcements are omitted!

1. Gluing the High start hook absorption in the fuselage floor. There make sure that the 2mm
plywood part with the two small ones drilling is used. Deviating from series 2, the high start
hook mount directly in the bottom of the fuselage should be milled (= 1 part fuselage floor
made of Poplar plywood without separate high start hook mount out Birch plywood).
2. Shaft side parts and with 3mm Birch plywood parts amplify. It is important to ensure that a left
and a right side wall built becomes! To better ones alignment of the parts should be the 4mm
beech rods (on the illustration by CFRP solid rod shown) into the 4mm holes inserted, but not
glued! Additional reinforcements can be now also on the side of the fuselage parts are glued on.
There are 3 mm distance from the edges of the fuselage to be observed.
3. Hull bottom with side panels stick together. It is important that the side walls right-angled to the
floor to be glued and the high start hook mount down shows so that a smooth outside of the
fuselage floor. In this step will also be the three spacers between the

glued side walls. The floor closes flush at the rear. Furthermore care must be taken that the the
bottom of the trunk around the nose area about 3mm must be underlaid to to follow the contour
of the sidewall.
