1. Before you start building

Check the contents of your kit. You will find Figs. 1, 2 + 3 and

the Parts List helpful here.

2. Cutting the snake outer sleeves

Use a sharp balsa knife to cut the snake outer sleeves 53 (3

mm Ø) to the lengths shown in Fig.3. The snake inner tubes

52 (2 mm Ø) are supplied ready to install.

3. Reinforcing the motor pod

Glue the 31 mm length of snake outer sleeve inside the motor

pod using cyano.

Fig. 4

4. Installing the tailplane lock

Glue the tailplane clip 44, the upper tailplane sleeve 45 and

the tailplane frame 46 in the right-hand fuselage shell 4: spray

activator thinly on the plastic parts, and allow a few seconds

for the fluid to air-dry.

CAUTION! Take care

not to glue together the two plastic parts

(tailplane clip 44 and upper tailplane sleeve 45)!

Fig. 5

5. Inserting the tailplane slider

Allow the glue to set hard, then insert the tailplane slider 48 to

ensure that the parts are accurately aligned. This part must

not be glued in place!

6. Reinforcing the bottom of the fuselage

Cut the outer snake sleeve to a length of 635 mm, then glue it

in the channel in the bottom of the right-hand fuselage shell 4.

Temporarily fit the tailplane slider 48 to position this part

accurately, but take care not to glue the parts together.

Fig. 7

7. Reinforcing the fuselage nose

Cut the sleeves to a length of 247 mm, and glue them in the

upper part of the two fuselage shells 3 + 4. Cut the sleeve to a

length of 290 mm and glue it in the underside of the right-hand

fuselage shell 4.

Figs. 8 + 9

8. Preparing the cable holders (optional: required for ailerons)

Glue the plug end of the 30 cm extension lead 8 5031 to the

cable holder 29, flush with the edge. Push the cable under the

lug on the underside.

Fig. 10

9. Installing the cable holders

First spray activator on the joint surfaces of the cable holders

29. Allow the fluid to air-dry, then glue the parts in the

appropriate recesses in both fuselage shells.

10. Gluing the latch catches in place

Glue the latch catches 27 in both fuselage shells. Once again,

spray activator onto the plastic part, and allow it to air-dry.

11. Installing the servo mounts

Glue both servo frames 43 in the appropriate openings using

cyano. Ensure that no glue gets onto the mount lugs, as this

could prevent them holding the servos securely.

Fig. 13

12. Preparing the servos

Before installing the servos, set all of them to neutral (centre)

from the transmitter: this is accomplished by connecting the

servo to a receiver, switching the system on, and centring the

stick at the transmitter; check that the transmitter trims are

also at neutral. Locate the “double-ended” servo output levers

with three holes per side, and fit them on the servo output

shafts at right-angles to the long side of the servo cases. If you

find that the output arm is not accurately at right-angles to the

case when the servo is at neutral, rotate the lever through 180°

and try again; the output shaft features an odd number of

splines, and reversing the output device will get you “closer to

the target”.

Install the elevator and rudder servos as a mirror-image pair;

the same applies to the aileron servos, if you intend to install

them.

Avoid moving the servo output levers by hand, as this can easily

ruin the gears!

13. Installing the servos in the fuselage

Fit the servos in the servo mounts 43, with the output arms

facing down, and the output shafts towards the nose. Ensure

that the servo mounting lugs engage fully under the “clips” of

the servo mounts 43.

14. Joining the fuselage shells

Spray the joint surfaces of one fuselage shell with cyano

activator, apply medium-viscosity cyano to the joint surfaces of

the other shell, then briskly join the two shells. Take care to

align the parts accurately.

15. Installing the snakes

Slip the pre-formed steel pushrods 51 for the elevator and

rudder into the inner tubes 52 (550 mm), and fit these into the
