P.1
Check all parts. If you find any defective or missing parts contact your local dealer. Please
DRY FIT and check for defects for all parts that will require CA or Epoxy for final assembly.
Any parts you find to be defective after the gluing process may be difficult to remove for
warranty replacement. The manufacturer will replace any defective parts, but will not extend
to the parts that are good before gluing to defective parts during assembly. Warranty will
not cover any parts modified by customer. For pre-assembled kits, please check proper
functions of all servos on the ground before flying. Servo gears could be damaged when
control surfaces are hit during transportation of models. The manufacturer will replace any
servos due to manufacturer`s defect, but will not cover plane crashes due to damaged
servos not detected before flying.
Symbols used throughout this instruction manual comprise of the following :-
Read through the manual before you begin, so you will have an overall idea of what to do.

Field Stand / Launching Pad
The field stand can be used as a launching-pad if you are flying on paved
runways. Place the on the stand, point it into the wind, check your
controls and advance the throttle. When the gets enough air speed,
pull the elevator gently and the will fly off the field stand and get
airborne gracefully.
If you are flying on grass fields and could not use the field stand as a
launching pad, you will need to hand launch the .
When the has gained enough air speed, gently pull the elevator
and let the climb to a higher safe altitude. Reduce the throttle to
slow the while maintaining altitude. The should fly well
about half throttle. You may add power when turning, climbing or doing
loops. Learn how the behaves and adjust the trims for level flight.
To avoid overheating of ducted fan motor and battery, we recommend you
use full power intermittently. This will also give you longer flying time and
extend the battery life.
For the first hand launch flight, we recommend having an assistant to hand
launch the for you. Ask your assistant to hold the by the
fuselage, pointed into the wind, while you check the correct control surface
response. Fully advance the throttle to start the motor and once the ducted
fan is at full power, the hand launcher should gently push the plane into the
air at a level attitude. Don’t use excessive force as it is not necessary, and
don’t throw the model up the sky as it will cause the model to stall before
gaining air speed. Make sure the is being launched into the wind
and be alert to make corrections to keep the model flying straight and level
into the wind.

C.G.
Control Throws
Adjust the control throws as shown in
the diagram. These throws are good for
general flying. You can adjust according
to your personal preference.
10mm
10mm
Ailerons / Elevator
The ideal C.G. position is 70mm (2.76 in.) behind the leading edge
measured at where the wing meets the fuselage. In order to obtain
the C.G. specified, add weight to the fuselage or move the battery
position. Check the C.G. before flying.

Important Safety Precautions
# First time flyer should never fly by himself / herself. Assistance from experienced flyer
is absolutely necessary.
# Pre-flight adjustment must be done before flying, it is very dangerous to fly a badly
pre-adjusted aircraft.
# is specially designed to be powered by KM0283110 Outrunner Motor.
# Make sure the air field is spacious, never fly the plane too close to people and never
get too close to a running propeller.
# Check and re-tighten up all factory assembled screws, use thread locker if necessary.
Warning!
Please note that the mixing function of your radio will add up the control throws of
aileron and elevator input. A control throw of 10mm for the aileron or elevator alone
will give you up to 20mm throw if you input aileron and elevator throw at the same time.
