42. Glue the front spoiler to the fuselage chassis, and the front spoiler servo to the bodywork floor.
43. Fit the tailwheels 59 on the wire tailwheel units 58.
44. Cut a slot about 2 mm deep and 10 mm long in the vertical fins. Slide the tailwheel units into the slots and
glue them with cyano.
45. Connect the servo leads to the receiver, and glue it to the bodywork sub-floor using UHU por.
46. Extend the wires attached to your motor so that the speed controller can be positioned immediately
forward of the battery compartment. Run the wires through the nose section and into the fuselage. Fix the
motor to the motor mount using the screws supplied with the motor.
47. Solder the motor wires to the speed controller wires, and fix the controller to the side panel using UHU
por.
48. Deploy the receiver aerial as shown in the pictures below.
49. Fit the propeller driver, the propeller and the retaining collet on the motor.
50. Use a pair of side-cutters to cut the pair of wing mirrors in half as shown, then trim them to the required
length. Place the mirrors in the appropriate position for the car you are emulating, and cut slits in the top
section of the bodywork using a sharp knife; push the mirror supports through as far as the bodywork
sub-floor, and glue them in place.
51. Glue the camera spoiler in place in the correct position for your full-size prototype.
52. Now all you have to do is paint on the panel lines, the cockpit and the driver's helmet and apply the
decals, and your GM-RACER 3D is complete.
Setting up the model
•
Set up the control surface travels as stated in the table below. For the first few flights we recommend that
you reduce the movements to about 60% of full travel using Dual Rates.
Elevator
45 mm up and down
Rudder
50 mm right and left
Ailerons
45 mm up and down
Front spoiler
10 mm up, 40 mm down
•
The main purpose of the front spoiler is to lift the model off the ground. The values stated above are the
important ones: the normal flight setting should be 10 mm up, while the starting position should be 40 mm
down. If you wish, you can set up a separate flight phase and mix these values into up-elevator and
down-elevator; this will enable the model to fly extreme manoeuvres such as tumbles.
•
Centre of Gravity position: approx. 60 mm from the front end of the battery compartment towards the
nose.
Tips on painting
•
We strongly advise that you colour this model using the recommended paints from our range, Order No.
928 + colour number. If you wish to use a different type of paint, it is essential to check that it does not
damage or dissolve the DEPRON, so please test it on some scrap material. To paint edges and transition
areas we recommend that you cut templates to the desired shape from thin card or ABS, and lay them
flat on the component; sometimes holding it a little way away gives a better result (for example: the wheel
rims of the GM-RACER 3D).
•
The first flight
check. Wait for a day with little or no wind, and you should be ready for the model's first flight. Ask an
experienced launcher to give the machine a gentle hand-launch; the motor has plenty of power, so there
is no need to give the model a powerful launch. Trim the machine for straight and level flight, and take a
little while to familiarise yourself with its handling before trying the first aerobatic manoeuvres.
