Use safety glasses when running the motor. Do not run the motor in an area of loose gravel or sand; the propeller may throw such material in your
face or eyes. Keep your face and body as well as all spectators away from the plane of rotation of the propeller as you run the motor. Keep these
items away from the prop: loose clothing, shirt sleeves, ties, scarfs, long hair or loose objects such as pencils or screwdrivers that may fall out of
shirt or jacket pockets into the prop. Always remove the LiPo battery from the plane before charging. Always use a charger designed to charge LiPo
batteries for charging the LiPo flight battery. Never leave the LiPo battery unattended while charging. If the battery becomes more than just warm,
discontinue charging.

    Notes about the laser cut parts 1...The first thing that you need to do is to identify and mark the part numbers on the laser cut parts using the drawings on the following pages as a guide. 2...It is possible that several of the laser cut parts may not be completely cut through. If this is the case you can free the part from the sheet quickly using an X-acto knife.

  • Page 4: Building Instructions

    Building Instructions: General Note: Cover the plans with wax paper before assembling your model to prevent the parts from sticking to the plan. Building the Rudder: 1...Glue R-1 to R-2. Glue R-3 to R-4. Sand the front and top edges of R-1/R-2 round.
  • Page 5 5...Place the left fuselage side into position and square up the fuselage. Glue the left fuselage to the formers. 6...Glue F-6B and F-6C to the front of F-6A as shown on the plan. 7...Gently spread the fuselage sides apart and slide F-6 into position from the front.
  • Page 6 10...Glue F-9 into position on the bottom front of the fuselage. 11...Glue F-10 into position on the top front of the fuselage. 12...Glue F-11 into position on the top front of the fuselage. 13...Place former F-12 into position and glue into place. 14...Place former F-13 into position and glue into place.
  • Page 7 15...Glue F-14 into position on the top rear of the fuselage. The pushrod exit at the rear should be on the left side. 16...Glue F-15 into position on the top of the fuselage between F-11 and F-14. Slightly moisten the top surface to allow the wood to bend to match the curve of the fuselage easier.
  • Page 8: Building The Wing

    Building the Wing: 20...Cover the right wing plan with wax paper to prevent the parts from sticking to the plan. Note: The wings are built upside down so although we are building the right wing on the plan view, it will become the left wing on the finished model.
  • Page 9 26...Cut one of the 1/16” x 3/4” x 18” trailing edge sheets in half and slide into position into the slots in the back edge of the ribs. Be care- ful not to glue the trailing edge to the temporary support tabs. 27...Glue the shear web (B-1) into position on the front faces of the main spars between ribs W-1 and W-2.
  • Page 10 31...Glue the four 3/32” sq. stringer spars into position. 32...Glue the W-9 servo mount into position. 33...Remove the wing from the plan. Remove the temporary support tabs from the trailing edge of the wing ribs. Install the 3/32” stringer spars into position on the other side of the wing. 34...Press the trailing edge flat against your building board and glue the top 1/16”...
  • Page 11 36...Glue the 1/8” laser cut wing tip to the end of the wing. 37...Sand the leading edge round to match the profile shown on the plan. 38...Sand the ends and back edge of one of the elevons round. Sand a bevel on the front edge as shown on the plan.
  • Page 12: Final Assembly

    Covering: 42...Sand all parts smooth with 400 grit sandpaper.Cover the model with a light weight iron on covering material. Only cover the bottom of the hatch H-1 (side without laser markings) Be careful not to warp the hatch as you shrink the covering.
  • Page 13 48...Attach the rudder with the hinges and glue in place. 49...Attach the elevons with the hinges and glue in place on the wings. 50...Place the right wing into position on the fuselage. Mark the fuselage around the wing where the W-1 rib makes contact with the fuselage side.
  • Page 14 53...Glue the rudder control horn into position. Drill 1/16” holes for the pins to pass thru. When the glue is dry, cut off the excess pins flush. 54...Install the pushrod into the housing. Secure the rear of the pushrod with a Mini E/Z Link. The front end is attached to the servos with a Mini E/Z Connector.
  • Page 15 57...Bend the main landing gear wire to shape using the pattern on the plan. Leave the axles long until you mount the wheels. 58...Insert the landing gear wire into the slot in the fuselage. Make sure it is completely seated. Squirt two drops of thin C/A into the slot and let dry completely.
  • Page 16 63...Plug the speed control and servos into the receiver and attach the receiver to the fuselage with velcro. Pass the receiver antenna back and out through the rear of the fuselage. 64...WITH THE PROPELLER REMOVED...Turn the transmitter on. Place the throttle stick in the low position. Plug the battery into the speed controller.
  • Page 17 5. Use charging systems that monitor and control the charge state of each cell in the pack. Unbalanced cells can lead to disaster if it permits overcharge of a single cell in the pack. If the batteries show any sign of swelling, discontinue charging and remove them to a safe place outside as they could erupt into flames.
