PREPARATIONS

❏
1. If you have not yet done so already, remove the major
parts of the kit from the box (wings, fuse, wheel pants, cowl,
tail parts, etc.) and inspect them for damage. If any parts
are damaged or missing, contact Product Support at the
telephone number on page 5.
❏
2. Carefully remove the masking tape and separate the
ailerons from the wing, the rudder from the fin and the
elevators from the stab. Where necessary, use a covering iron
with a covering sock to tighten the covering that may have
loosened during storage or from removing the masking tape.
Apply pressure over sheeted areas and the servo openings to
thoroughly bond the covering to the wood.
