Finally, the most important, is to applied 30mins epoxy to secure the horizontal plate to the fuselage. Make sure the horizontal stabilizer is clamped/ taped such that it lies in the same horizontal plane with the wing.
  • Page 7 Ducted Fan Unit Test run the EDF unit before installation. Check and mark the ESC connector to ensure air is blown backward. Try inserting the EDF unit with the backend first. Apply glue/tape to both end of the EDF housing. Make perfect sealing to enhance the EDF efficiency. Assemble the ducted fan unit and anchor the ESC.
