TOOLS AND SUPPLIES NEEDED
• Medium C/A glue
• 30 minute epoxy
• 6 minute epoxy
• Hand or electric drill
• Assorted drill bits
• Modeling knife
• Straight edge ruler
SUGGESTION
To avoid scratching your new airplane, do not unwrap
the pieces until they are needed for assembly. Cover
your workbench with an old towel or brown paper,
both to protect the aircraft and to protect the table.
Keep a couple of jars or bowls handy to hold the
small parts after you open the bag.
NOTE:
1. Please trial fit all the parts. Make sure you have
the correct parts and that they fit and are aligned
properly before gluing! This will assure proper
assembly. The Super Constellation is hand made
from natural materials, every plane is unique and
minor adjustments may have to be made.
However, you should find the fit superior and
assembly simple.
2. The painted and plastic parts used in this kit are
fuel proof. However, they are not tolerant of many
harsh chemicals including the following: paint
thinner, C/A glue accelerator, C/A glue debonder
and acetone. Do not let these chemicals come in
contact with the colors on the covering and the
plastic parts.
3.
The Super Constellation will perform 3-D
aerobatics easily if you use the largest
engines recommended within the engine
range. If you setup your airplane to do 3D
maneuvers, you will need to be throttle
conscious; that is, never apply full throttle on
straight and level flying or in dives to prevent
flutter.
SAFETY PRECAUTION:
• This is not a toy.
• Be sure that no other flyers are using your radio
frequency.
• Do not smoke near fuel.
• Store fuel in a cool, dry place, away from
children and pets.
• Wear safety glasses.
• The glow plug clip must be securely attached to
the glow plug.
• Do not flip the propeller with your fingers.
• Keep loose clothing and wires away from the propeller.
• 2 bender plier
• Wire cutters
• Masking tape
• Thread lock
• Paper towels
• Rubbing alcohol

SUPER CONSTELLATION
• Do not start the engine if people are near. Do not
stand in line with the side of the propeller.
• Make engine adjustments from behind the propeller
only. Do not reach around the spinning propeller.
PREPARATIONS
Remove the tape and separate the ailerons
from the wing and the elevators from the stab.
Use a covering iron with a covering sock on
high heat to tighten the covering if necessary.
Apply
pressure
over
thoroughly bond the covering to the wood.
INSTALLING THE AILERON and flap SERVOS
1. Install the rubber grommets and brass eyelets
onto the aileron servo.
2. Using a modeling knife, remove the covering
from over the pre-cut servo arm exit hole on the
aileron servo tray / hatch. This hole will allow
the servo arm to pass through when installing
the aileron pushrods.
Remove the covering
3. Place the servo into the servo tray. Center the
servo within the tray and drill 1,6mm pilot holes
through the block of wood for each of the four
mounting screws provided with the servo.
