- Page 7 *Carbon rod wing trusses to support the lower fuse to the wings are 310mm (x4)* www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 8 As shown above, the aileron bracing is done using flat carbon fiber glued into the slots creating durability for the aileron. Please see the carbon fiber diagram for your airframe to determine which size carbon strips are to be used. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 9 www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 10 Wing bracing shown above. The center wing spar is the supplied carbon fiber square stock. Cowl glued to the fuselage. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 11 The horizontal piece of the fuselage also uses flat carbon fiber spanning the entire length from the rear wing spar to the horizontal stab spar. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 12 Elevator flat spar and h-stab flat spar shown above. Now that rigidity is established, it is very important to break in the hinges by flexing them all the way over and weighing them down. Let them rest for at least 60 minutes. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 13 You can now prepare the bottom half of the fuselage. Test fit this into each slot as shown above before glueing. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 14 If deciding to place glue on the horizontal part of the fuselage, you can mark out where the glue will be placed as shown above after test fitting the fuselage. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 15 Using the marks that you just made, place your glue along the fuselage. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 16 It is extremely important to make sure that the bottom vertical part of the fuselage stays 90 degrees to the horizontal fuselage while the glue is setting. This can have a huge effect on the flying characteristics. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 17 The provided EPP square may be useful during this process of glueing the bottom fuselage piece. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 18 Now that the bottom fuselage piece is glued into place, you can locate the carbon fiber rods used for the wing bracing. Shown above is the wing joiner used to guide the wing bracing. Some airframes may have a larger gusset or joiner that overlaps the leading edge.
- Page 19 Shown above is the wing bracing glued into the bottom part of the fuselage. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 20 Just like the aileron bracing, it is very important to use weight towards the wing tip while the carbon wing bracing is setting up to keep the leading edge of the wing as straight as possible. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 21 Shown above is one of the carbon fiber landing gear legs that come pre-glued to the axle. The larger of the two EPP foam circular collars will slide on first. No need to apply glue to anything quite yet. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 22 Next, with no glue needed, slide one of the wheels on to the axle all the way up to the first foam collar. Make sure it is spinning freely. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 23 Now locate the plywood/carbon fiber laminated collar to slide up next to the plastic wheel. Once again, do not apply glue yet as the tire will need to spin as freely as possible around the axle. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 24 Locate the smaller of the two circular foam collars to slide onto the axle next. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 25 Lastly, locate one of the wheel pants. You can place a bit of adhesive on the last foam collar before sliding the wheel pant on to the axle. If desired, you can place some adhesive on the outside of the wheel pant where the carbon fiber axle ends.
- Page 26 Shown above is both landing gear legs in place. You will find the slots cut in the side of the bottom of the fuselage to slide each landing gear leg into. Make sure that the bottom of each leg is placed to where the airplane will sit level on the ground.
- Page 27 Locate the EPP landing gear cover that will be placed over the carbon fiber landing gear leg. Test fit this piece, then glue it on over the carbon fiber using the pre-cut slot. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 28 Shown above is the bottom fuse bracing for the rear of the fuselage. Lengths found in diagram. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 29 Shown above is the rest of the bottom fuselage bracing up to the wing bracing. You should be able to notice the dots marked to help guide where each rod will be placed. Lengths found in diagram. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 30 Above is the other side of the fuselage carbon fiber arrangement. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 31 Locate the short flat carbon fiber piece that will be used as the tail piece for taxiing, taking off, and landing. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 32 Glue the tailpiece into place as shown above while making sure that it is on the same angle of the bottom of the fuselage to ensure that the airframe will sit level. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 33 You can now prepare your servo arms. Above is the provided double arm to be added on to the aileron servo arm that comes with the servo. Using the extension will provide the maximum amount of aileron throw. To join the two arms, use carbon fiber rods as shown above and glue them in through the holes lined up on each arm.
- Page 34 Before placing the servo arm on the servo, locate the mini EZ connector. These connectors will be used to secure the linkage to the servo arm. Slide the top metal piece into the end of the servo arm and then fasten the bottom plastic piece through the pin.
- Page 35 After you electronically center your aileron servo by plugging it into your receiver and powering it on with zero sub trim and trim, you can glue it into the servo slot that is the most forward on the airframe with the output shaft facing rear.
- Page 36 Shown above is the glued in elevator servo. For the elevator, use the middle servo slot that is on the side of the fuselage. The arms used for the elevator and rudder servos are the singles. For both the elevator and rudder servos, face the output shaft towards the rear.
- Page 37 Shown above is the rudder servo mounted in the furthest rear servo slot. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 38 Locate the control horns in the provided kit. You will find three longer horns and one shorter one. Two long ones will be used for the ailerons and one long horn for the rudder. The shorter one will be used on the elevator. You will notice a cutout on the bottom of the elevator horn that will fit over the elevator spar.
- Page 39 Locate the carbon fiber rods to be used for the aileron linkages (lengths shown in diagram). This will be cut and used for the two aileron linkages. Also locate the straight metal piece as shown above. Use regular CA to glue these two together.
- Page 40 Shown above is the entire aileron linkage assembly for one aileron. Notice the heat shrink over each glued end, as well as the straight end clamped into the mini EZ connector on the servo arm. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 41 Shown above is the elevator linkage. Notice how the 4 guides are slid over the linkage and the heatshrink is cut and slid on before the Z bend is glued. The rudder linkage will be done the same way later on. You will be able to tell where the guides will need to be glued in based on the slots in the fuselage.
- Page 42 Above is the finished elevator linkage setup with the guides glued into the fuselage and the elevator centered and clamped into the mini EZ connector. Also shown is the elevator control horn. It may be easier to glue the horn in after the linkage is assembled since the linkage is set up underneath the fuselage.
- Page 43 Once the aileron and elevator linkages are set up, use the same process as glueing the bottom of the fuse to glue the top of the fuselage into place. Once again, it is important to keep this as straight as possible. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 44 Now that the top of the fuselage is glued in, you can glue the other rear carbon fiber rods to help strengthen the tail as shown above. They will be mounted from the bottom of the horizontal tail to the rear of the bottom vertical fuselage.
- Page 45 The final piece used for carbon fiber bracing will be the rod used at the front of the airframe. Make sure that the fuselage is straight while these pieces are setting. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 46 You can now locate the final long control horn and glue it into the slot on the side of the rudder. This will be used for the rudder linkage that will be constructed in the same way as the one used for the elevator. Once again, the length for that linkage is 365mm.
- Page 47 Notice above the plate glued onto the side of the fuselage. This can be used to mount the electronic speed controller on the other side of the fuselage. The two cutouts on the top and bottom of the plate is where the provided velcro strap will slide through.
- Page 48 Shown above is the ESC mounted using the velcro strap and a supplied zip tie is used to tie the ESC wires together. The center of gravity and battery placement will depend on equipment used and personal flying preferences. The long piece of velcro mounted above is the location of the battery for this setup.
- Page 49 Shown above is the motor mounted to the provided motor mount. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
- Page 50 If desired, locate the side force generators that will be glued into the counterbalances of the ailerons. *Some airframes may require the SFGs to be glued into different locations along the wing.* Shown above are the pieces included for the stand assembly. www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
