ASSEMBLY MANUAL

The real plane

The MiG-29 is a

fourth-generation jet fighter aircraft

designed in the

Soviet Union

for an

air superiority

role. Developed in the 1970s by the

Mikoyan design

bureau, it entered service with the

Soviet Air Force

1983, and remains in use by the

Russian Air Force

as well as in many other

nations.

The MiG-29OVT "Red Star" version have thrust-vectoring engine and fly-

by-wire technology. It served as a thrust-vectoring engine test-bed and

technology demonstrator to show future improvement in the MiG-29

series. The two RD-133 thrust-vectoring engines, each features unique

rotating nozzles which can provide thrust vector deflection in all

directions. The OVT version is being demonstrated in various air shows

around the world for potential export and as an aerobatic demonstrator.

Page 2 The model The Mig-29 3D EDF ARF, was designed by the 13 times Italian Champion Sebastiano Silvestri, vice-European Champion and F.A.I World Cup winner F3A. This professional ARF kit is the result of Sebastiano’s long research, experience in F3A and his passion for jet planes. This combined with an extremely light weight foam structure and with many small aerodinamical tricks give the Mig-29 3D EDF an impressive precision and easy control at any airspeed and flight condition.

Warranty information SebArt garantees this kit to be free from defects in both material and workmanship at the date of purchase. This warranty does not cover any parts damage by use or modification, and in no case shall SebArt’s liability exceed the original cost of the purchased kit.
Page 4 Remove each part from its bag and protection. Remove the canopy from the fuselage.
Page 5 Locate the carbon rod, included in hardware pack, in the wing panel. Apply the 5-minute epoxy into the slot and turn the carbon tube in his location.
Page 6 Plug in the servo connector and match the polarity. Check the alignment of the wing panel with the fuselage before glue it.
Page 7 Apply a light coat of 5-minute epoxy on the wing panel. Locate the wing panel in his position on fuselage.
Page 8 Make sure to check the alignment on the top of the wing panel to the fuselage.
Page 9 Wipe off any epoxy that squeezes out with some rubbing alcohol on a paper towel. Hold pressed the wing panel in his position on fuselage. Repeat this steps for the other wing panel too.
Page 10 Locate the stabiliser and the elevator linkage , included in the hardware pack. Check the alignment of the stabiliser panel with the fuselage before glue it.
Page 11 Apply a light coat of 5-minute epoxy on the stabiliser panel.
Page 12 Locate the stabiliser panel in his position on fuselage and check the alignment. Wipe off any epoxy that squeezes out with some rubbing alcohol on a paper towel.
Page 13 Hold pressed the stabilizer panel in his position on fuselage.
Page 14 Connect the elevator linkage in servo arm.
Page 15 Connect the elevator linkage at elevator horn. Repeat this steps for the other stabiliser panel too.
Page 16 Locate the rudder and connect the rudder servo connector matching the polarity.
Page 17 Check the alignment, than apply a light coat of 5-minute epoxy on the rudder panel and install it on fuselage. Wipe off any epoxy that squeezes out with some rubbing alcohol on a paper towel.
Page 18 Hold pressed the rudder panel in his position on fuselage. Repeat this steps for the other rudder panel too. NOTE the alignment from the front view of wings, stablizers and rudders.
Page 19 Install on fuselage the nose cone using 5-minute epoxy.
Page 20 Wipe off any epoxy that squeezes out with some rubbing alcohol on a paper towel. RADIO SET UP Connect your 7-channel receiver to the servo wires as follow: throttle = THROTTLE  aileron = AIL  to connect the 2 ailerons, use the “Y” included in hardware pack elevator = ELE ...
Page 22 Install with pieces of adhesive velkro, included in the hardware pack, the receiver on the in-side of the fuselage. Locate full on “BACK” position the battery pack 4S in the fuselage location. In order to have the best performance and the correct C.G. location, be sure to use a battery pack with a weight betwheen the 350g.
Page 23 PROGRAMMING EXAMPLE ON JR PROPO RADIO...
Page 24 NOTE: the channel GEAR = GYRO SENSibilty on one side need to be “0”, because it can work in two different modes: hold and gyro (check gyro instructions included in the box for more infos) NOTE: the channel GEAR = GYRO SENSibilty need to have some subtrim “-30”, with this it can recognise the way to work as soon as you will switch on the system.
Page 25 IMPORTANT NOTE: after the connection of the battery pack, do not touch the plane for at least 10 seconds, because the gyro need this time to set himself, when it is ready, a red light will be ON steady. Use the sub-trim to center the thrust rudder servo (the two vektors, from top view, need to be 5°...
Page 26 Use the sub-trim to center the aileron servos. The aileron is connected with the flap. Use the flap line to find the neutral position and the aileron need to stay “UP”, like the original one. Flap and aileron work togheter as a long aileron.
Page 27 Use the sub-trim to center the elevator servos and if necessary modify the lenght of one side linkage.
Page 28 Use the sub-trim to center vekor 1 & 2 servos, using the neutral point indicators. Program the throttle curve like the picture for a better power response in 3D flying. NOTE: program your radio with 3 flying modes (with combined trims):...
Page 29 Pos 0 = normal flight with reduced throws (in this case is used the aileron D/R switch) Pos 1 = flight with full rates for start, landing flat spins with GYRO in OFF position (in this case is used the aileron D/R switch)
Page 30 Pos 2 = flight with full rates for 3D & hovering with GYRO in ON position (in this case is used the aileron D/R switch) Program the D/R and exponential in the 3 different flying modes for the ailerons, elevator and rudder as per following pictures: High rate (100%): 35°...
Page 31 High rate (100%): 40° up & down High rate (100%): 30° right & left MIXING...
Page 32 In Pos 0 (normal flight) this mixing need to be activated, ON. In Pos 1 (full rates) this mixing need to be dis-activated, OFF. In Pos 2 (3D & hovering) this mixing need to be dis-activated, OFF. Full Aileron RIGHT & full Aileron LEFT → elevator DOWN 10% This mixing will help to perform at normal and fast speed very axial rolls.
Page 33 In Pos 1 (full rates) this mixing need to be activated, ON. In Pos 2 (3D & hovering) this mixing need to be activated, ON. Full elevator UP → vektor 2 UP 100% Full elevator DOWN → vektor 2 DOWN 100% This mixing is necessary for the 3D flying.
Page 34 In Pos 0 (normal flight) this mixing need to be dis-activated, OFF. In Pos 1 (full rates) this mixing need to be activated, ON. In Pos 2 (3D & hovering) this mixing need to be activated, ON. Full aileron RIGHT → vektor 1 UP 100% Full aileron LEFT →...
Page 35 In Pos 0, 1, 2 this mixing is always ON. Rudder RIGHT → ailerons LEFT 36% Rudder LEFT → ailerons RIGHT 36% This mixing is necessary for an easier knife edge fly. Adjustment of the GYRO SENSibility ( = GEAR)
Page 36 Activate the gyro sensibilty mixing. In Pos 0 (normal flight) this mixing need to be dis-activated, OFF. In Pos 1 (full rates) this mixing need to be dis-activated, OFF. In Pos 2 (3D & hovering) this mixing need to be activated, ON. This mixing is necessary for a very easy hovering.
Page 37 Test the operate of gyro sensibility ( = GEAR channel ) mixing: In Pos 0 (normal flight): In Pos 1 (full rates): In Pos 2 (3D & hovering): NOTE: the GEAR channel move at 50% (+ 30 steps of the programmed sub trim)
Page 38 If something go wrong with the thrust-rudder servo response, or the red light on GYRO is flashing, switch OFF and disconnect the system, and re-start again. Finally... have nice flights! SEBART International S.r.l. Via L. Tabellione, 1 47891 Rovereta - Repubblica di San Marino (RSM)
