If exposed to direct sunlight and/or heat, wrinkels can appear. Storing the
model in a cool place will let the wrinkles disappear. Otherwise, remove
wrinkles in covering film with a hair dryer, starting with
low temperature. You can fix the corners by using a hot iron.
Bei Sonneneinstrahlung und/oder Wärme kann die Folie erschlaffen bzw. Falten
entstehen. Verwenden Sie ein Warumluftgebläse (Haartrockner) um evtl. Falten aus der Folie
zu bekommen. Die Kanten können Sie mit einem Bügeleisen behandeln. Nicht zuviel Hitze anwenden !

1-Cut away the covering of the wing bottom
where the aileron servo goes.
2-Connect the aileron servo cord to the aileron
extension cord.
3-Install the aileron servo on the servo mount.
-Switch on the radio (trims centered)
then mount the ailerons servo horn
in neutral position.
-The servo horn should be
perpendicular to the servo
YES NO
1-Depending on the position of the linkage, determine the location of aileron control horn.
The horn holes must be perfectly aligned with the axis of articulation.
2-Mark the position of the “foot” of the horn on the aileron. Then, with the drill, make the 2
holes.

Trial fit the horizontal stabilizer in place .
Check the alignment of the horizontal
stabilizer. When you are satisfied with the
alignment, use a pencil to trace around the top and
bottom of the stabilizer where it meets the fuselage.
7-Horizontal Stabilizer
Remove the horizontal stabilizer
from the vertical stabilizer. Using a straight edge
and a sharp hobby knife, carefully cut away
the covering inside the lines which were marked
above. Be cautious not to cut into the wood-this
will weaken the structure.
Again, slide the horizontal stabilizer into the
slot on the fuselage. Check the alignment of the
horizontal stabilizer. When you are satisfied with
the alignment, glue the both sides of the horizontal
stabilizer where it meets the fuselage.

stabilizer and the horizontal stabilizer.
When you are satisfied with the alignment, secure the vertical
stabilizer in place using thin CA glue.
Remove the vertical stabilizer from the fuselage.
Using a sharp hobby knife, carefully cut away the
covering below the lines which were drawn in the
previous steep. Do not cut into the woods as this
will affect the structural integrity of the stabilizer.
Again, insert the vertical stabilizer into the fuselage.

Note: Cut out the stickers and apply them in the proper area. Do not peel the backing paper off all at once.
Peel off one corner of the backing and cut off with scissors.
Arrange sticker on model and when satisfied adhere the corner without backing.
Carefully peel back the rest of the backing while at the same time adhering the rest of the sticker.
Try not to make air bubbles, if there are some, carefully puncture sticker (center of bubble) but not model surface with
the tip of the knife or sharp pin and squeeze out the air.
At curves stretch sticker and apply a little heat so that no ceases occur.
Cut off the excess that is produced.
