5. Plane is made of EPP material, so assemble it gently to avoid damage. The modeler should
take steps to reinforce the high stress points
and/or substitute hardware more suitable for the
increasedstressif

Cut 2 pieces of C-bars with 855mm length and 2mm diameter into the slot of aircraft wing' stop
and bottom surface. Stickthe two c-bars in the top and bottom to the aircraft wing with 502 glue
to enforce the aircraft
wing's strength. Use quick-setting glue to fixthe carbon fiber strips. Insert
the 6mm carbon fiber rods to the slots of vertical stabilizer fasteners, glue them. Cut 3 suitable
carbon fiber strips
and glue them onto thefront and trailing edge.

insert servo to the right place. Put one end of the connecting rod into the hole
of control hom,

of the other end at the place of the hole of servo arm.
Leave10mm and trim

MotorThrust ~~m1JM:
We suggest that you add 2 degrees of down-thrust and 1 degrees of right-thrust. This can be
achieved by adding awasher or
two behind the top and right side of the motor (between the
motor and the firewall). When set properly, the trim
for the elevator and the rudder should be
neutral. Fine-tune the
down-thrust and right-thrustuntil this trim is achieved.

SeekAssistance: If you are a beginner in RIC, we suggest you find an experienced pilothelp you
with the first
few flights. Thiswill prevent damage from your model and will speed up the learning
process.It makes your RICexperience more enjoyable. You can contact RICclubs or your dealerto
.obtain the names of experienced RICpilots who would be willing to help you in learning.
