tant white aliphatic resin, like our KAV9960 KAVAN White Glue (alternative-
ly, you can use this sort of glue for most of wood-to-wood joints). The highly

Warning!
This RC model you will build and fly is not a toy! Although it may seem to be li-
ght and slow in flight it is capable of serious bodily harm and property damage.
It is your responsibility and yours alone - to build this model correctly,
properly install RC equipment and motor and to test the model and fly in
Precautions
You must build the model according to the instructions. Do not alter or mo-
dify the model, as doing so may result in an unsafe of unflyable model. Take
time to build straight, true and strong. Use proper radio and other equip-
ment that is in first class condition, properly install all the components and
test their correct operation before first and any further flight. Fly the model
only with competent help from a well experienced modeller if you are not
already an experienced RC pilot.

MODEL ASSEMBLY

Tail Surfaces
◊ Trial fit the parts of the horizontal stabilizer, elevator, fin and rudder – no
glue yet! Sand as necessary to obtain perfect fit. (Fig. 1 + 2)
◊ Roughen the surface of the 3x0.5 mm R3 carbon spar using No. 120 sand-
paper and glue it with medium CA to the trailing edge of the fin R1.
◊ Glue the T3 reinforcement plate into the horizontal stabilizer T1. Once the
glue has cured sand it flush with the stabilizer.
◊ Sand the entire surface of the horizontal stabilizer, elevator, fin and rud-

strength and enough time for the correct positioning.

Safety Codes valid in your country.
If you are just starting RC modelling, consult your local hobby shop or an
experienced modeller in your local RC club to find a good instructor.
Note: We, as the kit manufacturer, can provide you with a top quality kit
and instructions, but ultimately the quality and flyability of your finished
model depends on how you build it; therefore we cannot in any way gua-
rantee the performance of your completed model, and no representations
are expressed or implied as to the performance or safety of your completed
model.

◊ Put the tail surfaces aside for now; they will be finished after the tailplane
seat is installed to the tail boom.
Fuselage
◊ Trial fit the parts of the fuselage– no glue yet! Sand as necessary to obtain
perfect fit. Be sure the tail boom F1 could be inserted easily but tightly
into the openings in F10 and F8 formers. (Fig. 1 + 3)
