Summary of Contents for SCALE-PARKFLYER Zero Fatty

  • Page 1 Zero „Fatty“ From the Fatty Season:...
  • Page 2 building instructions The model of the Zero as a "cartoon variant" is part of the Fatty Season, which is available here in the shop. The models are simple in construction and allow a quick construction progress. The wing for example. consists of only a few components. The selected "KF" profile thus facilitates the construction.
  • Page 3 If you notice any inaccuracies or missing parts, please contact me to be able to offer the most satisfactory product to you and the following customers. info@scale-parkflyer.de General: The building material DEPRON is a very light building material that is normally used in house construction.
  • Page 4 For example, Depron has achieved a justified place on the model airliner for several years. Depron can be cold-formed over a table edge with the palm of your hand. The grinding of corners and protruding edges works well with fine smeared paper. When cutting Depron you should use a sharp knife with a narrow blade.
  • Page 5 Building instructions: Structure of the wing: 1. Cut out the slot for the stiffening (6x0.5 mm CFK rod, better 8X0.5 mm CFK) from the lower wing with a cutter knife according to the marking. Glue the CFRP rods with oversize, see picture flush with the underside.
  • Page 7 2. Put the heling together. 3. Put on the lower wing halves and grind the connection joint until they fit neatly and the protruding CFRP lies against each other.
  • Page 8 4. Align both wing halves on the heling and glue them together. Make sure that both CFRP rods are glued together. 5. Prepare aileron servos including cable extension. A notch in both wing parts serves as a cable duct. Notch both wing parts until the cables pass through without pressure.
  • Page 9 For example ( P38 ) 6. If a CFRP wider than mm was used, also cut the slot in the upper half of the wing. Put on the upper wing half and grind the connection joint until they fit together. Now glue the upper wing parts onto the underside of the heling.
  • Page 10 Fuselage assembly:...
  • Page 12 8. Insert all frames into the fuselage side part R1. As soon as all frames are inserted, the stringers R2 can be attached to the side. 9. If everything fits, everything can be glued.
  • Page 13 10. After bonding all components to each other, sand the planking edges.
  • Page 14 11. Insert the side / elevator servo below the cabin opening, prepare the Bowden cables. For the course of the Bowden cables, temporarily install the tail unit and push the Bowden cables through the frames.
  • Page 15 For example ( Mustang B )
  • Page 16 12. Remove the tail assemblies. 13. Insert the engine into the fuselage stringers using the engine mount. This can be installed with plywood, GRP or CFRP stiffeners. Since the "Fattys" like to go on the nose when landing, the stiffening can be built into the fuselage so that it doesn't loosen later in the depron.
  • Page 17 14. Adjust the wing to the fuselage, align it geometrically and glue 15. Glue R1a together with the fuselage frame segments R5a to R8a and glue them under the wing.
  • Page 18 16. Planking the fuselage:...
  • Page 21 It is advisable to plank from frame to frame. It is important that the Depron is pre-bent with the “more unstable” bending side of the bending contour. The best way to do this is to carefully deform the Depron over the edge of a table with the heel of your hand. Of course, larger areas of the fuselage can be covered up to the entire hull side in one go, depending on the knowledge of the planking.
  • Page 22 19. Now the model can be completely sanded. For adhesive gaps, “Modelier” “Moltofill”, a type of paste for touching up plaster, can be used optimally to fill the gaps. After curing, the material is hardly harder than Depron and you have a clean shell in your hands.

  • Page 24 Of course I help with construction problems by phone or email. I would be happy to call you back by email. Always a good flight with your new model. Frank Seuffert info@scale-parkflyer.de...
  • Page 25 Warning!! Before you fl y the R/C model it is essential to read the operating and building instructions in full. This sheet is part of the operating instructions. Please keep it in a safe place for further reference. If you ever sell the model make sure to pass on this sheet to the new owner together with the model. A remote controlled model aircraft (model plane ) is not a toy.
