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 2c 0.46 or 4c 0.70 engine,
using a more powerful engine does not mean better performance. In fact, over
powered engine may cause severe damage and injuries.
# Make sure the air field is spacious, never fly the plane too close to people and never
get too close to a running propeller.
# If you find wrinkles on the covering as a result of weather changes, you can use
hot iron to remove the wrinkles. Please begin with lower temperature setting and
gradually raise the temperature until the wrinkles are gone. Too hot an iron may
damage the covering.
# Check and re-tighten up all factory assembled screws, use thread locker if
necessary.

3.26 in.
C.G.
83 mm
The ideal C.G. position is 83mm (3.26 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.

Usage of the transparent 3D template
This transparent 3D template
is used for position guidance
of the actual cutting of the
pre-painted cowling.
Simply cut the transparent 3D template to fit your engine and
exhaust pipe, then slide onto the actual cowling and use as
template to mark the openings required for final cutting.

LINKAGE CONNECTOR
HW7111050 & HW7111060
After fastening the round nut, make sure that
the linkage connector can rotate freely.
Drill 2mm hole at servo horn.
Insert linkage connector
into servo horn.
Make sure shoulder of
screw is cleared from
servo horn.
Add washer to reduce
play if necessary.
Shoulder
Tighten up the round nut
against the shoulder. Apply
