Thoroughly grease the bearing areas of the tailplane pivot brackets before epoxying
them in the openings in the fuselage.
Connect the elevator linkages, and adjust the pushrods to the point where the distance
between the bottom edge of each tailplane panel and the underside of the fuselage is 72
mm. Apply a drop of cyano to the pushrods to prevent them slipping out of adjustment.
Caution: don't allow glue to contact the styrofoam!
Glue the battery support plate, the plywood plate for the compressed air valve and the
compressed air tank in the fuselage using epoxy.
The retract system can be operated using either the mechanical valve supplied in the kit
or an electronic valve. Screw the compressed air valve to the plywood plate, and
connect the air lines.
Install the receiver and connect the servos to it; you will need to use two extension
leads, Order No. 3935.50, to connect the aileron servos.
Cut out the decals and apply them to the model in the arrangement shown in the kit box
illustration.

First flight:
- Assemble the model as described in these instructions, program the radio control
system as explained above, and give all the batteries a full charge. There is now no
excuse for not flying the model!
- We recommend that you carry out a range check with the motor running before you fly
your new BAe HAWK.
- Do not attempt to fly this aeroplane unless you are a pilot with good flying skills
and plenty of experience.
- Although the aircraft is extremely simple to build, it is fairly demanding to fly.
All of us in the Graupner Team hope you thoroughly enjoy building and flying your BAe
HAWK.
Yours - the Graupner team
