fit into the pre installed latching tube in the canopy frame.
A substantial length of cable is attached to the latch pin to allow you to route it where you feel

"bunny ears".

Equipment Layout
You are free to locate components for the support equipment
wherever best meets your needs. We found on this model
that fitting the PowerBox unit and air control systems in the
rear fuselage just near the front and rear fuselage joint gave
us the best solution. Engine ancillaries were mounted above
the tank. If required the front fuselage section can be removed
for transport relatively easily for transport and the aircraft
balanced at the correct CG (with cockpit set installed) without
the need for any additional weight. A picture is included for
your reference.
Wing Fences
A set of wing fences and vortex generators is supplied in your
kit and fitment is relatively easy. On each wing there is one
large wing fence (see here in red) for the outboard of the
wing, and 3 smaller fences (seen here in grey) to go further
inboard. You will see impressions on the wings where the
fences are postioned. Pay particular attention to the angles
they should be set at. For the inboard fences each has a
slightly different inner profile depending on its position along
the leading edge. Before gluing, identify which one goes in
