  • Page 2 Debut [S.P.A.D.] [Spad Index] [Build] [Overview] [Wing] [tail] Install] file:///C|/Users/Frank/Documents/Debut/debut1.html[6/14/2011 4:20:44 PM]...
  • Page 3 A Dremel® with a cutting wheel works best for this. There is NO down or right thrust on the Debut. If you are using full size radio gear - see the note below, if you are using micro gear, procede to step 2.
  • Page 4 Build Debut per plans, and you use full size gear, you will have a tail heavy airplane that you may not be able to balance correctly! 2) Drill for, and install the 4 1/2" long x 3/16" dia. wing hold down dowels as shown. Fuel proof the hold down dowels with CA.
  • Page 5 Note: A 4 ounce fuel tank is enough fuel to get you through a 5 minute combat round, but there is plenty of room inside the Debut fuselage for a 6 ounce tank. The prototype equipped with a TT pro .25 engine and a 6 ounce tank will get 15 minute flights at full throttle! That's a lot of good combat training time...and that's what the Debut is all about!
  • Page 6 WITH THE WING INSTALLED! Do not allow then to droop (like flaps)! If your ailerons droop, they will drastically affect pitch trim! Flying your Debut: 1) Follow ALL AMA safety codes! 2) Attach your wing with at least 12 #64 rubber bands (6 per side).
  • Page 7 5) Fuel up, have fun, learn the combat basics, and then go kick some serious butt! As always, send pictures if you would like to show off your plane on the SPAD gallery! And if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to post them on our SPAD message board ! [S.P.A.D.]...
