finishing made in automotive paint, vinyl, decals and varnished for great durability. Very stable, realistic and
acrobatic flight pattern. Capable of many scale maneuvers such as rolls, slow rolls, Cuban eight, knife edge flight,
inverted flight and more. This model was developed and built to provide high performance both in terms of
flight and in terms of realism and details richness. It´s construction is made with specific materials of high quality
and advanced techniques of composite lamination to offer low weight and high structural strength.
The Juniaer model airplanes are painted and varnished with high quality and resistance products. Even so,
some care must be taken to protect the paint: wipe your model with a cloth immediately after use with water
sprays and neutral detergent. Fuels can damage the varnish if it penetrates punctures or damages to the plane's
surface, as well as cuts in the engine's cowling. To prevent this kind of problem, we recommend brushing two-
component PU varnish or applying epoxy to areas that are uncovered for any reason. Avoid exposing the model
to direct sunlight as much as possible, especially the darker painted parts that accumulate and reflect a greater
amount of heat, causing an internal and external temperature raising. The use of automotive wax for polishing
is useful in preventing the accumulation of dirt and facilitates the cleaning and protection of the varnish. We
suggest the use of fabric smooth covers for storage and transport, in order to protect against damage and risks.
Be careful when handling your model airplane, especially the movable control surfaces. Never lift it by the two
wing tips only, as the total weight is considerable to be supported only by 2 distant points. When checking the
model airplane´s balance through the center of gravity (C.G.) always support it by the roots of the wing at the
indicated points.
Please read this manual to the end before doing anything on your model airplane, it contains important
information regarding assembly and use, and it will also give you an overview of what should be done correctly
and following the guidelines.

Fuselage Junction
The fuselage is supplied in 2 sections that must be united together with 30 to 40 minutes epoxy glue and 6
screws with washers to get permanently glued and assembled in 1 piece.
IMPORTANT: WE DO NOT RECOMMEND ASSEMBLING OR USING YOUR MODEL AIRPLANE WITH THE FUSELAGE
JUST SCREWED FOR ASSEMBLING AND DISASSEMBLY.
The 1/4” blind nuts are already installed in the rear fuselage section. Test the union of the 2 parts and check
the perfect fit between them. Sand the parts to be glued with 120 to 150 grit sandpaper to increase the adhesion
of the glue. Apply epoxy glue to the front section of the fuselage across the area to be glued, then join the parts
together. Apply high grade (permanent) threadlocker to the threads of the 6 1/4" x 3/4" allen screws (supplied
with the kit) and insert them with the 6 1/4" washers through the front section of the fuselage tightening until
are very firm, thus achieving perfect alignment of the fuselage. Remove excessive glue with a cloth soaked in
alcohol and wait for the glue to cure completely.

Before installing your gasoline engine, please carefully read the manufacturer's manual and all parts
assembly recommendations including exhaust, mounts, ignition, installation, operation and maintenance. The
information contained in this manual is extremely important.
The model airplane's firewall is provided in correct place, with correct angles for turbine installation and with
markings for the 4 carbon fiber mount holes. Drill in the 4 marked positions with a drill and 5mm drill bit.
Position the 4 screws 5x20mm with the washers 5mm inside the firewall. Apply a medium degree threadlocker
(removable) to the screw threads and screw the carbon fiber turbine mount in front of the firewall, ensuring
that a solid, firm fixation is obtained with 90 degree alignment with the firewall. Position the turbine on the
mount to obtain the turbine´s 4 horizontal fixing holes and 3 vertical fixing holes location.
IMPORTANT: The original metal tube for lubricating the gearbox, when installed, is too high in relation to the
carbon fiber turbine mount, being necessary to adapt it to allow the later installation of the upper cowling.
It is recommended to apply water-based thermal protection paint containing ceramic microspheres to
prevent overheating of the turbine mount and cowling.
All fuel hoses and turbine cables must under no circumstances come into contact with parts of the turbine
block that are very hot during and after operation.
Above: 3 thermal protection paint layers apllied on the carbon fiber turbine mount.

Very important: all fuel hoses and turbine cables must not, under any circumstances, come into contact with
parts of the turbine block that are very hot during and after operation. For this, we recommend fixing them to
the mount with nylon clamps firmly and without the possibility of moving.
The most suitable turbine exhaust outlets according to the scale of the model aircraft are 55mm in diameter,
0.2mm thick, with 90 degrees of deflection and 100 radius of curvature. We recommend those made of stainless
steel by Zimmermman Schalldämpfer code #5060. We recommend water-based thermal protection paint with
ceramic microspheres manufactured by BVM Jets code PA-MA-1940 (down-left).
We recommend the instaltion of o FOD screen to protect the air intake to avoid solid parcticles absorving by
the turbine (below a direita).

Instalação da carenagem do motor
It is necessary to cut the two parts of the nose cowling to allow the passage of the turbine´s exhausts, so that
there is no direct contact between the parts due to the high operating temperatures. The carbon turbine mount
provided for the K-60TP version has 2 side cowling fixing brackets to ensure better support and fixation.

IMPORTANT: It is recommended to apply water-based thermal protection paint with ceramic microspheres to
prevent overheating of the nose cowling and turbine mount, especially the upper cowling. 3 coats of paint
applied by brush with 30 minutes between each coat are required for adequate protection. A layer of thermal
insulating fabric based on ceramic fiber and a layer of aluminum foil can also be added on the outside with the
shiny part facing the turbine for greater thermal protection of the upper cowling, which is exposed to higher
temperatures for longer periods.
Above: inner part of the upper cowling painted with thermal protection paint and application of a ceramic
fiber fabric (left) and a layer of aluminum foil on the outside (right).
The engine cowling is provided in 2 parts (upper and lower). The parts have perfect fittings among themselves
and in the fuselage, providing the correct alignment according to the center between the fixing holes of the
turbine mount and the firewall angles. Using the back plate of the spinner (4 ¾”) positioned on the prop washer
of the turbine, position the lower part of the engine cowling in such a way as to center the spinner back plate
with the circumference formed by the cowling, leaving spacing of 1 to 2mm between the spinner back plate and
the cowling so that they do not touch in any position.
To fix the cowling to the fuselage, apply epoxy glue to 4 10mm hardwood cubes and glue them to the inside
of the fuselage, in order to make a solid fixing point where the fixing screws will be inserted. Do the same at the
fixing points at the bottom of the cowling or use screws with self-locking nuts to ensure fastening even with
high levels of vibration. With the correct alignment of the set, permanently screw the cowling parts together
and to the fuselage using washers to increase the contact area with the cowling parts avoiding damage and
cracks due to vibration. The screws to be inserted in the wooden cubes must be locked with a drop of medium
CA glue or epoxy to reinforce the lock and ensure greater resistance. The horizontal and vertical inclination of
the spinner backplate and the front part of the cowling must be equal, parallel and centralized.

We offer custom-made wooden propellers for the A-29 Super Tucano 60TP Juniaer (sold separately). Always
consult the engine instruction manual to decide on the size and pitch of a propeller and consider the desired
performance according to the characteristics of your model airplane. 2 blade propellers are ideal for engine
break-in and flight tests, as they provide higher RPM and greater speed of response to engine acceleration,
while 3 blade propellers and 5 blade propellers provide lower RPM, being very suitable for scale models,
however, they present a lower speed of response to engine acceleration.
The JC Super Props are factory balanced, painted and varnished, contributing to the good performance and
scale visual of your A-29 Super Tucano 60TP Juniaer.
