Assembly instructions
Before assembly
Check the contents of the kit. The Fig. 01 + 02 and the parts list are
helpful.
1. Piercing the cable ducts through to the fuselage
Use a punch, a round file or a screwdriver to pierce the fuselage for
EN
cables and the spar. To do so, place the model on its back and insert
and rotate the punch starting at the cable duct. Remove any loose foam
particles. Fig. 03
2. Further preparations
For both rudders, prepare the glue-in rudder horns
Fig. 04
To do so, insert the pushrod connector
rudder horn and assemble it together with the washer
㉗
. Caution: Secure the nuts additionally with a drop of paint or instant
adhesive.
For safety reasons, apply instant adhesive with a pin only.
Pre-assemble the hexagon socket set screw
in the "pockets" for the rudder horns, insert the rudder horns and allow
the adhesive to set.
Caution:
Adhesive may spray out during insertion - Wear safety goggles!
3. Installing the servos
Set the servos to neutral using a servo tester or remote control. The servo
arms should be positioned at 90° to the servo (correct if necessary).
Insert hot glue into the slits for the servo flaps and immediately press the
servos into the recesses. If required, apply more glue into any remaining
slits on the flaps. Then cut off any protruding hot glue flush and lay the
servo cables. Fig. 05
4. Putting the rudder into operation
Use a cutter according to Fig. 06 to open up the lateral rudder gap - it
should be approx. 1 mm wide. Then move back and forth several times
to ensure the hinge is working properly. Make sure not to overstretch
the rudders and do not tear them off! Working range approx. +/- 45°.

5. Installing the spar and glue the outer wings to the middle
section

Push the spar sideways through the fuselage and position it in the middle.
Glue it into position later on. Fig. 08

. Apply Zacki ELAPOR
6. Gluing the outer wings to the inner section
Adjust the external parts and glue into position with Zacki ELAPOR
Route the servo cable. Seal the cable ducts with transparent adhesive
tape. Also fasten the servo cables in the fuselage to ensure they are not
in the way when changing the battery later on. Fig. 08
7. Gluing the spar
Check carefully that the wing is straight and not twisted against the
⓾
fuselage. The CFRP spar
shaft. Apply viscous Zacki ELAPOR
is not subjected to any load for several minutes. Before the adhesive sets,
check and make sure the wing is positioned correctly.
8. Rudder rods
㉚
Hook the rudder rods with Z-bend into the innermost hole of the servo
arm. On the rudder side, attach the rods to the pushrod connector
using the hexagon socket screw (M3)
rudder must be set to neutral. Use adhesive tape or pieces of film of the
decal sheet to affix the servo hoods
®
servo cable shafts.
Alternatively, the servo hoods can also be fixed into position using Zacki
ELAPOR . (Service access for the servo). Fig. 07 + 09

9. Inserting the counterholder for the canopy lock
㉒
Coat the locking clips with Zacki ELAPOR
position. Fig. 10
10. Gluing the canopy glass
⓬
Glue the canopy glass
UHU adhesive spray.
When using Zacki ELAPOR
close to the edge (note: after application, it is no longer possible to correct
the position). Alternatively, use adhesive spray. Fig. 12a
11. Sealing the back of the fuselage
Before sealing the fuselage, glue the cable protection
provided in the fuselage cover. Adjust the fuselage cover
5
with the canopy . Mark the positions and glue the fuselage cover
3
. Fig. 11
to the fuselage
Apply adhesive to the closure plugs
5
flush into the canopy up to the end of the gear teeth.
After the adhesive has set, test and allow the canopy to engage. Fig. 12
Caution:
Be sure to glue the fuselage cover carefully to the fuselage,
this is the only way to guarantee the necessary structural strength.
