Go-Go Dancer - INTRODUCTION 2
M O D E L S
Read through this manual before starting construction. It contains important
instructions and warnings concerning the assembly and use of this model.
Go-Go Dancer is a 30-watt electric-powered sport park yer. Powered by a
small CD-ROM brushless motor and a 2-cell 640 mAh LiPoly battery, Go-Go
Dancer will give you spirited performance at a very affordable price.
The Go-Go Dancer Design
Go-Go Dancer is an original kit designed for modelers with an interest in
electric-powered airplanes capable of park ying and sport aerobatics. Go-Go
Dancer was designed from the beginning for lightweight brushless CD-ROM
motors and LiPoly cells. This airplane makes use of strong, lightweight design
and construction, which improves electric-powered ight performance and du-
ration. Using the suggested motor and cells, Go-Go Dancer weighs about 7 oz.
ready-to-y. Go-Go Dancer was designed to y a wide speed range and handle
windier conditions than most park yers. Aerobatics, from very tight maneu-
vers to large, powerful loops, slow rolls, snaps, and big stall turns are possible
with Go-Go Dancer. Go-Go Dancer is very stable, and if trimmed out right, will
almost land itself. Go-Go Dancer is controllable and ies smoothly even in high
winds, yet slows down and lands like a feather. Go-Go Dancer is a great-ying
electric-powered model that ies predictably - not your typical “ip-and-op”
park yer. Go-Go Dancer should not be own by a beginner R/C pilot.
Go-Go Dancer was designed to make motor battery changes as easy as possible,
with no tools required. You don’t have to turn the airplane over or remove the
wing to change batteries. Just lift the front battery hatch up and ip it forward
for easy battery access. The hatch is hooked in the front and small magnets
hold the hatch rear in place. The recommended motor for Go-Go Dancer is the
GoBrushless basic CD-ROM motor kit with 16 turns powered by 2S1P - 640mAh
LiPoly cells at 5 amps. A 6” x 4” prop is recommended. This combination gives
spectacular performance and long ight times. Go-Go Dancer is light, yet tough.
Go-Go Dancer is a simple-to-build, y-anywhere airplane that is one of the best
ways to get into brushless performance on a budget.
This kit features leading edge design and interlocking laser-cut parts for excep-
tional t, quality, and ease of construction. A complete set of hardware is also
included. The Go-Go Dancer plans were drawn on a computer using professional
design software. We believe that the Go-Go Dancer plans are a work of art and
continue our high standards in kit manufacturing at ElectroFlying Models.
Easy-building engineering, great price, brushless performance and great ying
qualities, the Go-Go Dancer has it all.

Building Notes
Whenever you see the term "Glue" written in the instructions, you should use a quality hobby-grade Thin C/A type glue.
Photos and drawings in the instructions are placed to the left of the steps they refer to. It may be helpful to look ahead in the instructions or refer to the Plan call-
outs if you are confused about the current step or photo. Part numbers on laser-cut parts are top-side-up, unless otherwise noted.
Most of the wood parts in this kit have been laser-cut for accuracy and quality. The parts are held in place in each sheet by small tabs or breaks in the laser cut.
If you have trouble removing the parts from the sheets without damage, you can use a hobby knife to cut the tabs. Take your time and inspect all of the parts
after you have them removed. Save the wood scraps until you have nished the kit. Very light sanding of the parts can remove any tab bumps, but this should be
unnecessary for the most part.
The wood will have a light brown edge from the laser that will not have any effect on building strength. You may want to sand the brown edge of parts that will
be visible when using transparent coverings. Be careful not to over-sand the soft balsa wood and change the shape or size.
Take your time and enjoy building your Go-Go Dancer. Building from a kit can be a satisfying part of this sport and can add to your skills as an R/C pilot. You
will have a better understanding of your airplane because, unlike an ARF, you will get to know every part and function as you build. Go-Go Dancer has been
designed to build quickly, and with Go-Go Dancer's laser-cut parts, building accuracy is easier to achieve. The following instructions will lead you through
the building process, so clean off the building board and get started building your Go-Go Dancer. Building your own R/C airplane from a kit can be one of the
most rewarding experiences in this sport.
Tail Group Construction
1  Start the Horizontal Stabilizer and Elevator construction by
covering the Plan with wax paper to protect the Plan and keep the
parts from sticking to it. The Stabilizer and Elevator are constructed
from laser-cut 1/8" balsa stock. You will nd all of the parts on
sheet V1S9.
2  Fit the 6 pieces (R1 – R6) that make up the Rudder together
over the plans. Use thin C/A to hold the parts together. If you block-
sand the Rudder joins, as soon as you apply the C/A you will ll
any gaps in the joins with balsa dust and make a nice tight t. The
Vertical Fin is just one piece and requires no building
3  Build the Horizontal Stabilizer (S1, S2 & S3) and Elevator (E1
– E8 & EJ) over the plans like the Rudder. They are built top-side-up.
After the joints have been glued with C/A, the Elevator is turned
upside-down and the plywood Elevator Doubler (ED) is glued to
the bottom as shown in this photo. Make sure the plywood Elevator
Doubler is lined up with the balsa parts.

Go-Go Dancer - INSTRUCTIONS 5
M O D E L S
4  Sand a 45º bevel on the bottom trailing edge of the Horizon-
tal Stabilizer as shown in this photo. This is different from most kits,
which have you bevel the elevator leading edge.
5  Sand a 45º bevel on the left side of the Rudder. Take care not
to notch the top of the Rudder.
6  You should sand the trailing edge of the Elevator and Rudder
to about 1 /16". Tapering the trailing edges will reduce the weight
of the parts and improve the looks of your model. It will be easier
to balance your Go-Go Dancer if you keep the weight of Tail Group
parts to a minimum.
Set the Tail Group parts aside for now. You will be mounting them
on the Fuselage in a later step.
Wing Construction
7  Start the Wing construction by covering the Wing area of
the Plans with wax paper. Find all the Spars, Ribs, Joiners and other
Wing parts before you start.
Important Note: There are four 25 1/4" balsa sticks included in
the kit that are used in the Wing construction. They are very close
in thickness and you will have to be careful that you are using the
right one for each purpose. The 1/16" x 1/4" piece is used for the
Bottom Wing Spar. The 3/32" x 1/4" piece is for the Top Wing Spar.
The 1/8" x 1/4" piece is used for the Wing Trailing Edge. The 1/4" x
1/4" piece is used for the Wing Leading Edge.
8  Carefully pin the 1/16" x 1/4" x 25 1/4" balsa Bottom Wing
Spar to the plans. Locate the pins so that you can position the laser-
cut Center Spar on top.
9  Lay the two Trailing Edge Spar (TES) pieces on the plans in
position. Position the Wing Mount Brace (WMB) in place on the
plans. Position the two Wing Center Spars (WCS) on top of the Bot-
tom Wing Spar. Position the 1/16" plywood Wing Spar Joiner (WSJ)
and align it with the notches in the Wing Center Spars.
10  Slide the two center 3/32" Wing Ribs (WR1) in the center
notches of the Wing Spar Joiner. Fit them over the Wing Lower Spar,
Wing Mount Brace and into the notches on the Wing Trailing Edge.
They should friction-t into place, but you may tack them in place,
with C/A, if needed. You will glue the Spars and Ribs together after
all the full-length Ribs are in place.

Go-Go Dancer - INSTRUCTIONS 6
M O D E L S
11  Position the two 3/32" Wing Ribs (WR4) at each Wing Tip.
Make sure they t against the notch in the Wing Center Spar and in
the notch of the Wing Trailing Edge. You may have to use a little C/A
to hold these Ribs in place.
12  Fit the six Wing Ribs (WR3) to the Wing Spar notches and
the Trailing Edge notches. Wing should have all the full-length Ribs
in place as pictured here.
13  Use a straightedge along the Trailing Edge to help keep the
Wing straight as you now glue the full-length Ribs in place on the
Spar and Trailing Edge.
14  Glue the Wing Center Spar to the Wing Lower Spar along
the full length of the Wing.
15  Fit (Do Not Glue) the remaining Wing Ribs (WR2) into the
slots on the Wing Center Spar.
16  Position the 1/4" sq. Leading Edge. While holding the LE in
place, glue it to the center two Wing Ribs (WR1). Then glue the LE to
the two tip Wing Ribs (WR4).
17  Reposition the remaining Wing Ribs (WR2 & WR3) and C/A
them to the Leading Edge. Sand the end of the Leading Edge ush
with Wing Rib (WR4).
18  Glue Wing Ribs (WR2) to the Wing Spar.

Go-Go Dancer - INSTRUCTIONS 7
M O D E L S
19  Glue the 3/32" x 1/4" balsa Wing Top Spar (WTS) in place
with C/A. Sand the Wing Top Spar ush with Wing Ribs (WR4).
20  Glue the 1/8" x 1/4" x 25 1/4" balsa Wing Trailing Edge
(WTE) to the rear edge of Trailing Edge Spar (TESs) and Ribs. Sand
the Wing Trailing Edge ush with Wing Ribs (WR4).
21  Glue the 1/16" plywood Wing Trailing Edge Joiner (WTEJ)
in place. It should t in the gap between WR1s and the WTE.
22  Position the Wing Tips (WT) in place and C/A.
Remove Wing from the building board and check all your glue joints.
23  Locate all the laser-cut Aileron parts. They can be found on
sheet V1S8.
Note: You do not have to build the Ailerons over the Plans, but you
should use them as a guide. The Ailerons are built upside-down as
pictured here. You should use a straightedge to make sure LE of the
Ailerons are straight before you glue everything in place.
24  Fit the Aileron Spar (AS) into the notches of the Wing
Aileron (WA).
25  Fit the Aileron Ribs (AR1 – AR4) into the notches of the
Wing Aileron. There are Four different sizes of these and you should
use the Plans to get them located in the right position.
26  After all the Aileron pieces are in place, you can use C/A to
lock everything in place.
27  Sand a 40º bevel on the bottom LE of the Ailerons as
pictured here.
28  Sand the bottom of the Ailerons from the Aileron Spar to
the TE of the Aileron. The Aileron TE should be about 1/16" thick
after sanding.
Set theWing and Ailerons aside for now. You will be mounting them
on the Fuselage in a later step.

Fuselage Construction
29  Using the Plan as a guide, t and glue with C/A the three
Fuselage Side (FS1, FS2 & FS3) pieces together for each side of
the Fuselage. Make a left and right side with the laser-engraved
part numbers on the inside so they will not be visible through the
covering.
30  Attach the Nose Gear (NG1 & NG2) pieces to Fuselage
Former (FF1). Refer to the Plan and the picture at left for position.
31  Attach the Fuselage Former Doubler (FFD) to the back of
Fuselage Former (FF5) ush with the top edge. Press-t the 8-32
Nylon Nut into FFD.
32  Glue the six Nose pieces (N1 – N6) together as shown. Sand
the back edges ush with each other.
33  Assemble Fuselage Formers (FF3 – FF5) and Servo Tray (ST)
together over the Plan. DO NOT glue the parts to each other at this
time. You should be able to align them over the Plans at the correct
angles.

Go-Go Dancer - INSTRUCTIONS 9
M O D E L S
34  Position the assembly from the previous step over the right
Fuselage Side and t all of the tabs into the notches. DO NOT glue
any of the parts yet. Remember to use the side that will have the
part numbers facing inside.
35  Position the left Fuselage Side against the Former assembly
and t the Former tabs into the Fuselage Side notches.
36  Hold the Sides in contact with the Formers. Glue (C/A)
Fuselage Formers and Servo Tray (FF3, FF5 & ST) to the Fuselage
Sides (FS). DO NOT glue Fuselage Former (FF4) to the Fuselage Sides
until Step 38.
37  Tack Fuselage Former (FF2) in place between Fuselage
Sides.
38  Slip Fuselage Side Doublers (FSD) into slot between
Fuselage Side and FF2. Rear tip of FSD ts into the slot between
the Fuselage Side and FF3. This doubler forms a lip to help keep the
Hatch in place during ight. Glue FF2, FSD, and the front half of FF4
to the Fuselage Sides.
39  Attach the 1/32" plywood Battery Hook Reinforcement
(BHR) and 1/8" Lite-Ply Battery Hook (BH) to each Fuselage Side
just ahead of FF2.

to sand a nice round Leading Edge on the Wing. Use the plans as a
guide. Use a little model ller to cover up any holes or damage that
occurred during building.
Component Assembly and Sanding
68  Set the Wing on the Fuselage and use a small clamp to hold
it in place. Make sure the Wing is all the way back in the slot under
the Motor Mount.
69  Glue the Horizontal Stabilizer assembly to the Fuselage.
Make sure that it is square with the Fuselage and level with the
Wing. You can sight from the rear as pictured here to check if it’s level.
70  Glue Vertical Stabilizer (VS1) in place. Make sure it is per-
pendicular to the Horizontal Stabilizer and in line with the Fuselage.
Check that VS1, VS2, and the rear of the Fuselage are all lined up
vertically. This will be the edge that the Rudder is hinged to and it
must be straight.
71  Optional: Build your pilot from the three laser-cut parts P1,
P2, and P3. P2 goes between the other two parts.
72  Tape the Ailerons onto the TE of the Wing. Set the Hatch
and Pilot in place on the Fuselage. Trial t the Elevator and Rudder
in place. You can use a little tape to hold them in place for now. You
can see the motor has also been trial tted in place.
Now it's time to stand back and admire your work. A balsa airplane
model in the "Bare-Bones" stage is a thing of beauty. An ARF will
never look this good. The complete airframe should weigh about 2
1/2 ozs.

Covering and Hardware Installation
Note: Covering your Go-Go Dancer and installing hardware should
be done in the following sequence. Experienced builders may have
their own way to do things, but you should at least read through
the steps so that you will be aware of potential problems. There
are two key things to keep in mind: 1) DO NOT cover the bottom
of the Fuselage until you have nished installing the Elevator and
Rudder controls. You will need access to the Servos and Pushrods.
2) Cover the bottom of the Wing rst, then glue the Wing Mount
(WM) to the back of the Spar from the top, and nally cover the top
of the Wing. You will need access to the Wing Spar when you are
gluing the Wing Mount to it. Cover your Go-Go Dancer using any
lightweight covering. We suggest Nelson LiteFilm or Ultracoat Lite.
Do not use "regular weight" iron-on covering. Regular covering will
cause warps and you will not be able to get a nice tight/at nish.
73  Cover the bottom of the Wing.
74  Cut out the covering around the Wing Mount Brace (WMB).
Slide the Wing Mount (WM) into the slot and make sure it ts tight
against the back of the Wing Spar Joiner (WSJ). Clamp it in place
with a small clamp.
75  Position the Wing on the Fuselage. Make sure the Wing
Mount makes contact with Fuselage Former (FF5) and the TE is all
the way back in the slot under the Motor Mount. Sand if necessary
for a perfect t. Take your time–a perfect t here is important to
the strength of the Wing mounting.
76  Screw the 8-32 Nylon Bolt through the WM, FF5, FFD and
the 8-32 Nylon Nut. DO NOT tighten down the Bolt–leave about
1/16" between the head of the Bolt and WM.
77  Very carefully tack the Wing Mount (WM) to the Wing
Spar Joiner (WSJ). If you get careless, you may glue the Wing to the
Fuselage by mistake.
78  Tighten down (don't overdo it) the Nylon Bolt. If the WM
breaks loose from the WSJ, you did not have a perfect t between
the Wing and the Fuselage and you must try again. It’s better to nd
out now instead of in-ight.
79  If the WM stayed attached to the WSJ, remove the Wing
from the Fuselage and nish gluing the WM to the WSJ with thick
C/A or Epoxy.
80  Finish the Wing top covering.
81  Cover the control surfaces (Ailerons, Elevator, and Rudder).
You should also cover the Pilot and Hatch at this time.

82  Fasten the Receiver to the bottom of the Fuselage with
double-sided foam tape just ahead of FF3. Mount the Elevator and
Rudder Servos upside-down as shown on the drawing.
83  Cover the Fuselage Top and Sides.
84  Glue the 1/32" plywood Elevator Control Horn (EH) on the
inside edge of the right Elevator half.
85  Use 3/4" wide strips of clear packing tape to join the top of
the Elevator to the Stabilizer.
86  The Elevator Pushrod should be run through the upper slot
on the right side of the Fuselage. The Pushrod should pass through
the small holes in each of the Fuselage Formers (FF6 – FF9). Use the
supplied Du-Bro hardware to connect the Pushrod to the Elevator
Horn. Use a "Z" bend at the Servo Arm connection. Adjust Elevator
alignment by bending the Pushrod "V" adjustment.
87  Glue the 1/32" plywood Rudder Control Horn (RH) on the
bottom left side of the Rudder.
88  Use 3/4" wide strips of clear packing tape to join the Rud-
der to the Vertical Stabilizer on the right side.
89  The Rudder Pushrod should be run through the lower slot
on the left side of the Fuselage. The Pushrod should pass through
the small holes in each of the Fuselage Formers (FF6 – FF9). Use the
supplied Du-Bro hardware to connect the Pushrod to the Rudder
Horn. Use a "Z" bend at the Servo Arm connection. Adjust Rudder
alignment by bending the Pushrod "V" adjustment.
90  Run the Receiver Antenna out through the lower slot on
the right side of the Fuselage.
91  Glue the Aileron Horns (AH) to the inside edge of both
Ailerons. Note: The Horns should be ush with the bottoms and
stick above the Ailerons.
92  Use 3/4" wide strips of clear packing tape to join the
Ailerons to the Wing.
93  Install the Aileron Servos and connect the Pushrods. Adjust
the Pushrods so that the bottom of the Ailerons are level with the
bottom of the Wing.
Note: You will have to disconnect the pushrods to the Ailerons before
you can remove the wing.

94  Slide the Motor into the Motor Mount. You will have to
feed the Speed Control and Wires into the Fuselage as you slide the
Motor into place. Drill a 1/32" hole down through MM2 and the Brass
Motor Tube. Use the #2 Button Head Screw to secure the Motor to the
Mount.
95  Use double-sided foam tape to mount the Motor Control to
the inside of the Fuselage.
96  Test run the motor WITHOUT the prop to make sure it is
running in the right direction. Looking at it from behind the model,
it should be turning clockwise. Secure the airplane before you
connect the Motor Battery to the Speed Control. Follow your Motor
and Speed Control directions on proper arming and disarming
procedures. Make sure you have the brake feature disabled and the
correct voltage cut-off set for your batteries.
97  Make sure the servos are moving in the right directions
and that the control surfaces are moving the correct distances. The
correct Control Throws are noted on the Plan.
98  When everything checks out OK, put the bottom Fuselage
hatch in place and cover the Fuselage Bottom.
99  Fold and glue the clear plastic Canopy in place around the
Hatch. Use a non-fogging canopy glue. Trim ush with Hatch edges.
100  Insert the 1/16" Dowel through the hole in the Fuselage
about 1" below the Wing Spar. Center it side-to-side and glue it in
place. This is the balance point for your Go-Go Dancer.
101  Make sure that the Prop is balanced and secured to the
Motor. The front of the Prop should be facing forward. MAKE SURE
THE POWER IS NOT CONNECTED WHEN WORKING WITH PROP.
102  With everything installed including the Battery and Hatch,
balance your Go-Go Dancer using the Dowel. The bottom of the Wing
and bottom center of the Fuselage should be level. You can re-locate
the Battery, Receiver, etc. to adjust the balance. Once you have Go-Go
Dancer balanced, mark the location of the Motor Battery Pack. You
should also check the balance side-to-side and correct if necessary.
You can use the supplied Velcro and Rubber Bands to secure the
Battery during ight.
Note: This completes the construction phase of your Go-Go Dancer.
It's time to charge up the batteries and head to the ying eld.

FLYING Go-Go Dancer
Flying Qualities
Go-Go Dancer is a unique airplane designed to be a y-anywhere sport
airplane. Go-Go Dancer can be own in an area as small as a baseball in-eld
or even a large indoor site. However, you should have more room for the rst
few ights, until you have the airplane trimmed and you are comfortable with
Go-Go Dancer's handling qualities. Even though Go-Go Dancer is small, it can
be own like a larger airplane, including loops, stall turns, etc. Most R/C pilots
with intermediate-level skills should be able to y Go-Go Dancer. Because of
Go-Go Dancer's unique design, you will need to use rudder control with aile-
rons for proper coordinated turns. This will also help prevent reverse aileron
control and stalls at low air speeds.
Go-Go Dancer's lightweight design makes a very responsive and aerobatic
park-yer, even with a modest 30-watt power system. The suggested Go-
Brushless motor kit gives about a one-to-one thrust-to-weight ratio.
Go-Go Dancer has a wide speed range. Depending on weight and building
accuracy, Go-Go Dancer will stall at about 8 mph and can be own at a top
speed of 35 mph. Go-Go Dancer is a very lightweight design and should not
be own above this speed.
Before First Flight
Install the LiPoly motor battery and give the airplane a check-out. Review the
Safety Precautions on page 2. Have another adult person help you conduct a
radio range check with and without the motor running.
First Flight
You can hand-launch Go-Go Dancer with an overhand motion and release at
about 5º up and 3/4 throttle. As your Go-Go Dancer gains speed gently add a
little up elevator. Maintain a gentle climb. Gain a safe altitude before turning
into the trafc pattern.
After you have reached a safe altitude, throttle back to about 2/3 power.
Adjust the trim settings to maintain straight and level ight. Take it easy with
your Go-Go Dancer for the rst few ights and allow yourself to get used to
the handling qualities.
After ying around for a minute you should practice slow ight and landing
approaches. See how your Go-Go Dancer handles at low speeds, then add
power to test how well it will climb. Ease the power back on (don't go to full
throttle instantly) when you are at low airspeeds or your Go-Go Dancer will
pitch down just when you wanted it to climb.
Landing
When you have used about half of your estimated ying time you should land
and check your model over. Use a longer landing approach but don't let your
airspeed drop to low. Use elevator and throttle input to control how fast your
Go-Go Dancer settles to the runway or grass. Turn the motor off just before
you touch down.
Build Flight Time and Experience
After a few ights you can carefully build your experience with Go-Go
Dancer's capabilities. Learn how your Go-Go Dancer behaves in different
conditions. Build your experience carefully so you don't surprise yourself by
attempting a maneuver that Go-Go Dancer was not designed for and nding
you have run out of time, altitude, or airspeed. Every maneuver should be
deliberate and planned. Experiment at least “a couple of mistakes high.”
Enjoy your Go-Go Dancer and Fly Safe
Good luck, and we hope you enjoy ying your new Go-Go Dancer for years to
come. We would appreciate any comments or suggestions you have about
Go-Go Dancer. Email us at: contactefm@electroying.com.

Motor Building Tips
A  The GoBrushless Newbie Kit is the perfect choice for your Go-
Go Dancer. The Go-Go Dancer kit was design around this motor.
B  16 turns of 26 gauge wire is perfect for this motor and
airplane combination. Turn 9 turns out and 7 turns back in. This gives
you two neat layers of wire and will not interfere with the can.
C  To mount the Motor solder or epoxy a 1" piece of brass tube to
the brass motor bearing holder. We have found it easier to wind the
motor with this tube added before winding. Use K&S 3/8" tube #135
with a 0.345 I.D.
D  The Castle Creations Phoenix 10 control is the perfect control
for this motor. Maxx Products make a perfect 3 mm Colette style prop
adapter and 6" x 4" prop for this motor.
E  Use a heat shrink tubing and a tie wrap to secure motor wires.
