Assembly Instructions
Important Instructions
1.The model is supplied with UFO glue and 502( CA) glue. UFO is for bonding foam parts, and
502 for bonding wood, carbon fiber and metal parts. Unless otherwise specified, do not apply 502
glue onto foam parts which will cause serious corrosion.
2.Please wait for the glue to dry and solidify in each installation step before the next installation.
3.Please avoid using flame to heat the heat shrinkable tube on the model. Electric iron shall be
used for heating.
4.Please use razor blade to remove the parts from the plate. Do not tear the parts by forc e.

  • Page 2 1. Fuselage wooden frame parts and 3D-printed components. 2. Assemble the fuselage wooden frame parts and 3D-printed components. 3. Connect the elevator and rudder servos to the receiver, bind the receiver with the transmitter, and check if the servos respond correctly. Install the servos as shown in the diagram, ensuring the servo arms are oriented as depicted (top view of the parts)
  • Page 3 4. Connect the aileron servo to the receiver, bind the receiver with the transmitter, and check if the servo operates correctly. Install the aileron servo as shown in the diagram (bottom view of the parts). 5. Remove the two adjacent arms of the cross-shaped arm. (As shown in the diagram) 6.
  • Page 4 7. Magnets and its supporting structure. 8. Install the magnetic assembly according to the diagram. 9-1. Mounting instructions for 7.4V devices: Use Velcro to secure the receiver and ESC. Plug the servos and ESC into their respective receiver sockets, and use zip ties to secure the cables.
  • Page 5 9-2. Mounting instructions for 3.7V devices: Use Velcro to secure the receiver. Plug the servos into their respective receiver sockets, and use zip ties to secure the cables. 10. Fuselage central 3D-printed part and wing spar. 11. Install the fuselage central 3D-printed part and wing spar.
  • Page 6 12. Intake duct components. 13. Assemble the motor with the intake duct 3D-printed part, adjusting the motor installation depth to ensure the propeller blades are as close to the support as possible and rotate freely (insufficient proximity can significantly affect thrust). Use adhesive to secure the motor from the rear end.
  • Page 7 14. Connect the motor wires and power up to test if the motor rotates in the correct direction. 15. Nose foam board component. 16. Use a sharp tool (screwdriver) to score through the marked lines on the fuselage.
  • Page 8 17. Caution: When performing engraving operations, make sure to press on the part closest to the engraving lines to avoid tearing the components. (As shown in the diagram) 18. Install the nose foam board component. 19. Cockpit foam board component.
  • Page 9 20. Install the cockpit foam board component. 21. Fuselage foam board component. 22. Use a sharp tool (screwdriver) to score through all the marked lines on the inside of the fuselage foam board component at an angle.
  • Page 10 23. Bend the component inwards to close the top seam, and apply stickers to secure it. 24. Install the fuselage foam board component. 25. Bottom fuselage foam board component.
  • Page 11 26. Install the bottom fuselage foam board component. 27. Apply the top sticker. 28. Apply the cockpit sticker.
  • Page 12 29. Use glue to secure the cockpit structural component. 30. Apply the bottom fuselage sticker. 31. Batter y compartment cover panel.
  • Page 13 32. Position the batter y compartment cover panel in place without applying glue. 33. Apply the nose sticker. 34. Place a magnet at the circular hole on the batter y compartment cover panel.
  • Page 14 35. Use the sticker to secure the magnet. 36. The battery compartment cover panel can stay closed. 37. Follow the diagram to trim away the excess material from the cockpit canopy vacuum-formed part. It's advisable to start with conser vative cutting, place the canopy on the fuselage for alignment, and then make precise adjustments.
  • Page 15 38. The trimmed cockpit canopy. 39. Glue the cockpit canopy in place on the fuselage. 40. Apply the cockpit stickers.
  • Page 16 41. Horizontal stabilizer and vertical stabilizer. 42. Use a sharp tool (screwdriver) to score through the marked lines on the bottom surface of the horizontal stabilizer at an angle. This allows the elevator to move freely along the cut lines on both sides.
  • Page 17 43. Use a sharp tool (screwdriver) to score through the marked line on the right side of the vertical stabilizer at an angle. This allows the rudder to move freely along the cut lines on both sides. 44. Assemble the horizontal stabilizer and vertical stabilizer together. 45.
  • Page 18 46. Install the tail. 47. The wings. 48. Use a sharp tool (like a screwdriver) to score through the marked lines on the bottom surface of the wing at an angle. This allows the wing to bend downward, forming an airfoil shape.
  • Page 19 49. Use a sharp tool (screwdriver) to score through the marked lines of the aileron at an angle. This allows the aileron to move up and down along the cut lines. 50. Install the wings. A small amount of CA glue (502 glue) can be apply extremely carefully at the root of the wing and where the wing meets the spar to increase strength.
  • Page 20 52. Install the wingtips. A small amount of CA glue (502 glue) can be apply extremely carefully here. 53. Install the aileron control horns. 54. Install the elevator control horns.
  • Page 21 55. Install the rudder control horn. 56. Cut open the access hatch cover (keep it for later use). 57. Take two 90mm carbon rods for use as aileron pushrods. Cut four pieces of heat shrink tubing, each 5mm long, to connect the aileron pushrods and the wire clips.
  • Page 22 58. Use heat shrink tubing to connect the pushrods and the wire clips, then apply a drop of CA glue (502 glue) to secure them. 59. Install the linkage hook onto the aileron control horn. 60. Insert the carbon rods and wire clips into the fuselage, then mount them on the aileron servo arm.
  • Page 23 61. Use heat shrink tubing to connect the aileron control rod and the linkage hook, then apply a drop of CA glue (502 glue) to secure it. 62.
