7. Final airframe assembly (KIT+RR)
The fi rst step is to attach the bottom wing to the fuselage:
turn the fuselage onto its back, then guide the leading edge
of the wing into the corner between the undercarriage and
the undercarriage fairing. Connect the aileron lead to the
receiver, then fold the wing's trailing edge down onto the
wing saddle, and engage the locating lug in the fuselage.
The wing can now be fi nally positioned, and fi xed to the
fuselage using a single M5 x 35 mm plastic screw 47.
Turn the aircraft right side up so that it stands on its un-
dercarriage, and clip the wing struts to the bottom wing on
each side. The top wing and cabane can now be fi tted on
the fuselage, and the top end of the wing struts clipped in
place. The fi nal step is to secure the top wing with a second
M5 x 35 mm plastic screw 47.
Fig. 44
Two metal rods 76 are used to link the top and bottom aile-
rons: fi rst attach swivel pushrod connectors to all four aileron
link rod supports. Note that the red parts 51 belong on the
left-hand side, and the green parts 52 on the right-hand side.
Centre the ailerons from the transmitter before attaching
one aileron link rod at the top using an M3 grubscrew 55.
Clamp the link rod at the bottom with a further M3 grubscrew,
taking care to keep both ailerons centred.
Repeat the procedure on the other side.
Figs. 45 + 46
When dismantling the model, simply unclip the swivel
pushrod connector barrels from their supports; this method
maintains the correct alignment of the ailerons relative to
each other. The colour of the connectors makes it easy to
see the side to which they belong:
RED = left
GREEN = right
8. Balancing (KIT+RR)
First glue the two ballast weights 91 in the motor compart-
ment with Zacki; check that the cowl can still be closed.
Slide the fl ight battery into the battery tray, and adjust its
position until the model balances at the recommended Cen-
tre of Gravity (100 mm back from the top wing leading
edge, measured adjacent to the fuselage). Fix the battery
in place using the strips of hook-and-loop tape 88 and 89
and the hook-and-loop strap 90.
To ensure a strong joint, we recommend applying a few
drops of Zacki to the hook-and-loop tape where it makes
contact with the bottom of the fuselage.
