Refer to the main robbe catalogue for details of tools and
aids to building.
Sequence of assembly
In general terms the part numbers correspond to the sequence
of assembly; the number before the point indicates the Stage of
construction, the number after the point the individual compo-
nent.
Study the plan, the building instructions and the parts list before
starting construction, so that you have a clear idea at the outset
how the model goes together.
In the centre of these instructions you will find eight pages with
stage drawings. Pull the drawings out for reference.
The identification drawings „O" is intended to help you locate
and identify the die-cut parts.
Write the part numbers on the die-cut parts, but do not separate
them from their sheets until they are needed. Clean up cut
edges carefully.
Where die-cut parts have to be glued together always be sure
to leave the punched points exposed, as they indicate hole
positions. The instructions tell you when to drill the holes.
Some parts, such as the strip wood, have to be cut to length
according to the plan. The instructions don't mention this in
detail every time.
Please read the instructions supplied by the various adhesive
manufacturers. Allow glued joints to harden fully before con-
tinuing with construction.
Wherever epoxy is used remember to wipe off excess glue
while it is still soft.
All metal parts, such as pushrods, nuts etc., should be cleaned
and de-greased before installation.
When gluing nuts to wooden parts take care to keep the glue out
of the threaded section.
Directions such as „right-hand" are as seen from the tail of
the model looking forward.
Radio control system
For the Hot Shot you need a radio control system with a dual
mixer designed for a V-tail. A low-profile (flat-pack) receiver
battery is also required.
Building instructions
Hot Shot
approx. 1530 mm
Please check that your RC system components will fit in the

approx. 33 dm
positions recommended before you start building the model.
approx. 650 g
approx. 900 g
If you intend to use a radio control system other than the one we
E 186 mod.
recommend, you can still the follow the basic arrangement
shown, but you may need to make minor changes to allow for
differences in component size.
Before you start construction set the servos to neutral from the
transmitter (transmitter sticks and trims central).
Installing the RC system
In its standard form this model's receiving system components
are installed permanently in the wing.
If you wish to have access to these components you can
incorporate a removable hatch in the top sheeting. Details of
this are left up to the builder. In this case you will need open the
centre ribs to allow the battery to be fitted and removed.
The motor
For flat-field flying the model can be flown with an auxiliary
motor, mounted on a suitable pylon, for self-launching. The
motor is operated in non-throttled mode.
The materials for the motor pylon base are included in the kit.
The Order Nos. for the other parts required are listed on a
separate sheet.
Aero-tow release
An aero-tow release can be installed; details of the installation
are left up to the builder. Note that there is only space for a mini-
servo for this function.
Covering
We recommend robbe heat-shrink film for covering the model;
the film is supplied with full instructions. Please note that the
wooden parts must not be doped or sealed before the film is
applied. Simply rub down the wooden surfaces lightly with fine
glasspaper and remove all traces of sanding dust.
You can copy the colour scheme shown in the kit box illustration
if you wish.
The plans
The wing is built directly over the full-size drawing. The plan
should be taped down on a completely straight, flat building
board.
Cover the relevant area of the plans with thin clear household
film to avoid the parts sticking to the paper.
