The instructions
We have invested considerable effort in producing these instructions, with the aim of ensuring
that your model helicopter will fly reliably and safely.
Please take the trouble to follow the instructions step by step, exactly as described, as this is
your guarantee of success. This applies to you whether you are a relative beginner or an
experienced expert.
• Certain sections of the model are supplied completely pre-assembled, like the mechanics,
but they still need to be checked and adjusted before use. It is entirely up to the modeller to
ensure that all screws and other joints are correctly seated and tight, and that all adjustments
and set-up procedures have been completed correctly.
• The comprehensive illustrations show how the model is constructed; be sure to read the
instructions which accompany all the drawings.
• All the joints marked with this symbol
e.g. Order No. 952, or bearing retainer fluid, Order No. 951. Remove all traces of grease
from the joint surfaces before applying the fluid.
