Building Stand

A building stand or cradle comes in handy during the build.
We use the Robart Super Stand II (ROBP1402) for all our
projects and it can be seen in pictures throughout this manual.

IMPORTANT BUILDING NOTES

• There are three types of screws used in this kit:
Sheet metal screws are designated by a number and a
length. For example #6 x 3/4" [19mm]
This is a number six screw that is 3/4 "
[19mm] long.
Machine screws are designated by a number, threads per
inch and a length. For example 4-40 x 3/4" [19mm]
This is a number four screw that is 3/4"
[19mm] long with forty threads per inch .
Socket head cap screws are designated by a number, threads
per inch and a length. For example 4-40 x 3/4" [19mm]
This is a number four screw that is 3/4"
[19mm] long with forty threads per inch .
When you see the term test fit in the instructions, it
•
means that you should first position the part on the
assembly without using any glue, then slightly modify or
custom fit the part as necessary for the best fit.
• Whenever the term glue is written you should rely upon
your experience to decide what type of glue to use. When a
specific type of adhesive works best for that step, the
instructions will make a recommendation.
• Whenever just epoxy is specified you may use either 30-
minute (or 45-minute) epoxy or 6-minute epoxy. When 30-
minute epoxy is specified it is highly recommended that you
use only 30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy, because you will
need the working time and/or the additional strength.
• Photos and sketches are placed before the step they
refer to. Frequently you can study photos in following steps
to get another view of the same parts.
• The stabilizer and wing incidences and engine thrust
angles have been factory-built into this model. However,
some technically-minded modelers may wish to check these
measurements anyway. To view this information visit the web
site at www.greatplanes.com and click on "Technical Data."
Due to manufacturing tolerances which will have little or no
effect on the way your model will fly, please expect slight
deviations between your model and the published values.
