Assembly And Operation Manual; Introduction; Warning; Disclaimer - BVM Bandit arf Assembly And Operation Instructions Manual

INTRODUCTION

This instruction package is extensive, not because the model is difficult to build but because it
represents a thorough effort to make the Bandit ARF assemble easily and allow the factory prototypes to
be duplicated.

WARNING

This model is designed to safely operate with model turbine engines in the 13-20lb thrust range. The
prototypes are powered with a JetCat P-60 and P-70 engines. Limit the thrust of any engine installed in
this model to 20lbs of thrust.
1) A larger, more powerful engine could cause excessive speed and possible control
problems or structural fatigue.
2) Any change on the exterior of the engine will cause cooling flow problems inside the By-
Pass duct.
3) Installations that are not professionally engineered and tested can cause overheat
problems inside the model.
The privilege of operating a turbine powered model aircraft carries with it an increased responsibility.
Adherence to the manufacturer's specifications and the AMA regulations are included in this
responsibility.
The BVM Bandit ARF is offered in this completely engineered, manufactured and flight-tested
format. Please give serious thought before trying to modify or "improve" any facet of this power
and airframe package.
