ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS All faces which are to be glued to other parts need to be given a light sanding (scuff the surface) to assist with glue adhesion.

Check the fitment of all parts before gluing to make sure a good bond takes place. There should not be any gaps visible in the joins. Glue sections of the fuselage together using CA glue. (see images) Remove the servo tunnel access in the fuselage section. (highlighted red)

Fit the elevator to the horizontal stabiliser and connect the stabiliser to each side of the booms. IMPORTANT! Only 2 small drops of CA is needed for each slot for the hinges. Too much CA and the hinge will bind and be unusable. TIP: After adding the CA, use a tissue to wipe away the excess.

Fit small sections of 3mm skewer into the inner section of both wings. Align these tabs with the holes in the fuselage as the wings are glued to the fuselage. Cut four 35mm lengths of 3mm skewer and pin the tail boom to the aft section of the inner wings.

Glue the outer sections of the wings together using 10mm sections of 3mm skewer to align the parts. Glue the aileron in place, the control horn is to be on the underside of the wing.

Glue the outer and inner sections of the wings together. Glue sections of the canopy together using 3mm skewer. Fit the magnets into the canopy and fuselage. Fit the motor to the motor mount and connect to the esc. The motor mount is designed to be a relatively firm fit.
