6Aeroworks 30cc Laser 200 Assembly Manual
1. Open your kit slowly and take care not to dam-
age any parts of the kit. Remove all parts from
their plastic protective covers for inspection.
Before doing any assembly or installation of any
decals it is very important to re-shrink or re-
tighten the already applied covering. Due to the
shipping process, heat and humidity changes
from different climates, the covering may be-
come lose and wrinkle in the sun. If you take the
time to re-tighten the covering, you will be re-
warded with a long lasting beautifully covered
model.
TIGHTENINGAND
RESHRINKING THE
COVERING
2. Using your covering iron with a soft sock, gently
apply pressure and rub in the covering. If any
bubbles occur, your iron may be to hot. Reduce
heat and work slowly.
3. If bubbles persist, use a small pin to punch holes
in the bubble to relieve trapped air and reheat.
4. Use your heat gun with extreme caution. Take
care not to apply too much heat to one area for
long periods of time. This may cause the trim
colors to over shrink and pull away leaving un-
sightly gaps on the color lines. The trim stripes
are especially vulnerable to over shrinking.
5. Go over all seams and color overlaps with your
sealing iron.

Aeroworks 30cc Laser 200 Assembly Manual 7
6. Go over all hinge gaps and control surface to
ensure that wrinkled covering does not cause
excessive binding.
CHECKING GLUE JOINTS
1. Go over all seams and glue joints with thin CA,
this will ensure your model lasts for many sea-
sons to come.
Note: Even if you can visibly see glue on all glue
joints it is still recommended that the joints be
reglued. Due to changes in humidity during
the life of the aircraft glue joints can separate,
it is always recommended that the glue joints
be checked before each flying session.
2. Apply Thin CA to all firewall joints. The firewall
has already been fuel proofed and any additional
fuel proofing is not necessary.
IMPORTANT:
It is the responsibility of the purchaser /
operator to check the covering seams and
overlaps for security and a good seal.
Aeroworks is not responsible for failure of
covering seams or overlaps during flight.
Note: If covering continues to lift apply a small
amount of thin CA underneath the covering.
Then using a clean rag apply pressure to secure.
One of the most important tools in your
flight box is a roll of clear tape. This can be
used at the field for fast and easy repairs of
the covering. Then once you have finished
flying the covering can be permanently
repaired.
3. Apply a drop of thin CA to the alignment tabs on
the canopy as sown. Use extreme caution while
applying CA to ensure no CA runs onto the can-
opy.
4. Apply Thin CA to front canopy alignment pins as
shown. Allow CA to fully cure before reinstalling
canopy.

AILERON SERVO
INSTALLATION 2. Attach the 6” extension to the servo lead and
secure with an Aeroworks Safety Clip. Ensure
the plugs will not come apart from vibration or
light tension.
3. Layout the servo and extension on the wing to
test fit the installation and ensure servo lead is the
correct length.
4. Remove the balsa stick with the pull string from
the servo well and tie the pull string to the servo
lead as shown.
5. Secure servo pull string with tape so that the
string pulls from the front end of the plug. Taper
the tape to avoid hang-ups inside the wing.
6. Allow servo lead to pass through the preinstalled
rubber grommet as shown. This will prevent the
aileron extension from falling back into the
wing.

Aeroworks 30cc Laser 200 Assembly Manual 9
9. Install servo with servo mounting screws.
8. Install servo in servo well with the output arm
toward the leading edge of the wing. Drill holes
for servo mounting screws.
7. Remove servo extension pull sting as shown.
10. Assemble the pushrod and control horn assem-
bly as shown. The ball link goes between the
left and right sides of the control horn sides and
is secured with a nylon lock nut. Brass spacer
goes between servo arm and ball link and is not
installed between the right and left control horns.
11. Align the control horns over the factory drilled
holes.
12. Use a drop of thick CA glue on each screw to
prevent screws from loosening due to vibration
as shown.
Note: CA glues have a fast drying time.
Remember to work quickly.

10 Aeroworks 30cc Laser 200 Assembly Manual
13. Align the left and right sides of the control horns
to the mounting holes and mount using six wood
screws as shown.
14. A pushrod adjustment wrench has been in-
cluded, this will allow the pushrod length to be
extended or shortened with out removing the
servo arm. Adjust the pushrod length so the con-
trol surface is neutral when the servo arm is 90
degrees to the servo case.
Note: Tape aileron in place to help keep aileron
centered during pushrod adjustment.
15. Finished aileron servo installation shown below.
Repeat all previous steps for the remaining ai-
leron servo. HORIZONTAL STAB
INSTALLATION
1. Gather the items shown below for the
installation of the Horizontal Stabilizer. The
elevator has been pre-hinged but not glued to the
Stab. Elevator installation will be done in a later
step.
Required Parts
◊ 1 - Horizontal Stabilizer w/ Elevator
Required Tools and Adhesives
◊ 30 Minute Epoxy
◊ Ball Point Pen
◊ Pencil
◊ Hobby Knife
◊ Ruler
◊ Tape Measure
◊ “T” Pins
◊ Masking Tape

Aeroworks 30cc Laser 200 Assembly Manual 11
2. Slide horizontal stab through the precut stab cut-
out in the fuse. Install wing and bolt wing in
place.
3. Attach a “T” pin at the corner of each aileron at
the wing tip. Make sure the “T” pins are placed
in the exact corner of each aileron.
4. Tape aileron in place using masking tape. This
will prevent the aileron from moving resulting in
an accurate wing to tail measurement.
5. Measure the trailing edge of the stab from the
fuse side to the stab tip. These distances must be
equal before gluing the stab in place.
6. Using a tape measure, attach the end hook to the
“T” pin in the aileron and measure to the trailing
edge of the stab at the tip as shown. Repeat this
step for the other side of the stab. Ensure that the
measurement is identical on each side. If the stab
is not straight as compared to the wing some
adjustment may be necessary.
7. Mark the location of the stab at the fuse at this
time.

12 Aeroworks 30cc Laser 200 Assembly Manual
8. Apply 30 minute epoxy to top and bottom of
stab between the pencil marks made in step 7.
Take care not to get any epoxy outside of the
lines.
9. Slide stab into fuse aligning the marks made in
step 7 with the fuse sides.
10. Before the 30 minute epoxy cures, re-measure
the distance between fuse side and stab tip to
ensure it is installed correctly. Make any adjust-
ments to its alignment at this time.
11. Before the epoxy fully cures double check the
stab alignment between the wing tip and stab tip
using the same method as shown in step 6. Make
any adjustments to the stab’s position to ensure
it is properly aligned with the wing.
12. Allow 30 minute epoxy to fully cure, checking
stab alignment periodically as the epoxy dries.
1. Gather the items shown below for the
installation of the Vertical Stabilizer. The
rudder has been pre-hinged but not glued to the
Stab. Rudder installation will be done in a later
step.

Required Tools and Adhesives
◊ 30 Minute Epoxy
◊ Ball Point Pen
◊ Pencil
◊ Hobby Knife
◊ Ruler

VERTICALSTAB & RUDDER
INSTALLATION

Aeroworks 30cc Laser 200 Assembly Manual 13
2. Apply 30 minute epoxy into vertical stab post
slot as shown below.
3. Slide vertical stab into fuse as shown. Use paper
towels and denatured alcohol to wipe away any
excess epoxy.
4. Allow epoxy to fully cure before continuing
with assembly. While the epoxy cures ensure
that the vertical stab is sitting flat to the top of
the fuse. Masking tape may be used to hold ver-
tical stab in place until epoxy cures.
5. Cut 8mm strip of covering from the supplied
spare covering sheets. Use a trim iron to seal
covering over the vertical stab and fuse joint as
shown. This will completely hide the vertical
stab/fuse seam.
6. Repeat for remaining colors and both sides of
vertical stab.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for horizontal stab as
shown below.

to apply the epoxy inside the pre-drilled holes in
the trailing edge of the stabilizer. Apply epoxy
to one side of each hinge and insert the hinge
completely into the hole. Ensure the hinge axis
is horizontal and parallel to the trailing edge of
