Dear customer,
Congratulations on your choice of a factory-assembled
model aircraft from the robbe Modellsport range. Many
thanks for placing your trust in us.
The ASW 15 is available in two versions: the ARF model is
fitted with servos, motor and speed controller, while the RTF
model also comes complete with radio control system, flight
battery and charger.
Note: the recommended accessories for the kit version are
not identical to the components supplied in the ARF and
RTF versions. Please note the recommendations in the
instructions.
Very little work is required to prepare the model ready for fly-
ing. You can make it as easy as possible to operate your
new model safely by taking the trouble to read right through
these instructions attentively, together with the separate
information sheets, before you fly it for the first time.
All directions, such as "right-hand", are as seen from the
tail of the model, looking forward.
Suitable adhesives (for repairs)
Use robbe Speed Type 2 cyano-acrylate glue ("cyano") with
the associated activator ("kicker") for all repairs to this
model.

Notes on the building instructions
These building and operating instructions describe both
versions of the ASW 15 model aircraft.
If you have purchased the ARF version, all you have to do is
install the receiver. You can simply skip the description of
the radio control system and the battery charger, which are
intended for the RTF version.
In this case please read the instructions supplied with the
radio control system, the flight pack and the battery char-
ger.
If you have the RTF version, you can skip the following
stage in which the receiver is installed.
The section of the instructions starting with Fig. 13 apply
equally to both versions of the model.
Depending on the version of the model you have purcha-
sed, the servos described and shown in the instructions
may not be the same as those included with your model or
recommended for it.
Preparatory work on the ASW 15 ARF
Fig. 1
Unwind the flexible wire aerial attached to the receiver.
Note: if your radio control system features a six-channel
receiver and mixer functions, the aileron servos can be
connected to two separate channels. In this case you will
need to use two servo extension leads, F 1419, instead of
the Y-lead.
Fig. 2
Apply a strip of Velcro tape to the receiver, and stick the
matching piece in the fuselage.
Pierce a 2 mm Ø hole in the fuselage.
Run the wire aerial through the hole in the fuselage bottom
and out of the fuselage.
Do not deploy the aerial inside the fuselage tail boom.
