installed correctly. These washers ensure there
is an appropriate gap so the main wing can rotate
smoothly
NOTE:
1.The metal arm is factory adjusted to 20 degrees when the wing is in the forward position. (When in forward position , the main wing
angle is 20 degrees.) If this angel is not correct, the arm of the sweep wing controller will operate in the wrong direction, causing
damage.
2.With F14 in forward wing configuration, the wing angle is 20 degrees. By adjusting the wing sweep controller, the max angle it can
reach is 65 degrees. We can limit the max angle to 45 degrees by repositioning the installation hole of wing sweep controller arm.
3. In flight, with the main wing in swept wing configuration, the use of flaps will cause damage to the flap and flap servo. Flaps are
only to be used when in forward wing configuration.

When installing the main wing, the
side of the main wing's plastic
attachment point (part B) should be
kept parrallel with 'A' and maintain
the same angle. Adjustments are
made utilizing the ball link.
