REMOVING WRINKLES

The covering of your model may develop wrinkles during shipping. Use a covering iron (HAN101) with a sealing iron

sock (HAN141) to remove them. Start with a lower heat setting and use caution while working around areas where the

colors overlap to prevent separating the colors. It is also advised to use caution around the clear windows and wing

tips as these items are plastic and could distort with excessive heat. Avoid using too much heat, which could also

separate the colors. Placing a cool damp cloth on adjacent colors will also help prevent the separation of the colors

while removing wrinkles. Only use a heat gun (HAN100) once the covering iron has been used.

BUILDING PRECAUTIONS

Prepare the work surface prior to beginning the build. The surface should be soft and free of any sharp objects. We

recommend resting the airframe parts on a soft towel or pit mat to prevent scratching or denting the surface of the

aircraft.

TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

When transporting and storing your model, you will need a minimum of 70 inches (1.8m) in length, and 28 inches

(54cm) in height to accommodate the size of the fuselage. We also recommend the use of wing and stabilizer bags to

help protect these surfaces during transport and storage. The control horns and linkages can cause damage to other

surfaces even when placed in storage bags. Always transport and store the wings and stabilizer so the linkages do not

contact other panels to prevent damage.

REPLACEMENT COVERING

Your model is covered with UltraCote® ﬁ lm in the following colors. If repairs are required, order these coverings to

make those repairs.

HANU872 Bright Yellow

HANU873 Deep Blue

HANU866 True Red

HANU881 Silver

CHECKING BLIND NUTS

When building the aircraft, you will be required to thread machine screws into blind nuts. We recommend pre-threading

the screws to make sure the blind nuts are clear of any debris. If the screws do not thread in easily, clear the threads

using the appropriate tap and tap handle.

1. There are two different ball links included with the kit. The ball link

with the ﬂ anged ball is used at the servo arm.

2. The ball link with the non-ﬂ anged ball is used at the control horns.

4. Use medium-grit sandpaper to lightly sand the aileron control horn

where it ﬁ ts into the aileron. Clean the sanded area using a paper

towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove any debris or oils. This

provides the surface texture necessary for the epoxy to bond to.

 Use low-tack tape on the painted area to help prevent removing

paint from the exposed portion of the control horn. Low-tack tape

will also prevent lifting the paint when the tape is removed.

5. Test ﬁ t the control horn in the slot. Use a square to make sure the

control horn is perpendicular to the control surface. Do not force the

control horn in the slot.

3. Insert the M3 x 15 socket head cap screw into the hole in the aileron

control horn. Remove any paint using a hobby knife and #11 blade

so the screw ﬁ ts into the hole easily. Check all the control horns.

 The hole should be just large enough for the screw to slide

through, yet still fit snugly in the hole and not move excessively.

 If the control horn fits tightly, or is not square, use a rotary

tool 3/32-inch (2.5mm) drill bit to carefully enlarge and

reshape the hole. Wrap a piece of low-tack tape around the

drill bit to set the depth of the drill bit so it won’t accidentally

pass through the opposite side of the control surface.

6. Slide the control horn plate up from the part that glues into the

control surface and not down from the painted control horn end.

 Read through steps 6 through 12 before mixing any epoxy.

8. Remove the control horn from the control surfaces. Mix 10ml of

30-minute epoxy. Apply epoxy to the slot in the aileron and ﬂ ap.

Make sure the epoxy gets into the slot for a good bond between the

surfaces and control horn.

9. Apply epoxy to the area of the control horn that ﬁ ts into the slots.

Use enough epoxy so the control horns will be fully bonded to the

control surfaces.

7. Check that the control horn plate ﬁ ts ﬂ ush against the control

surface when the control horn is in position. Check both control

horns at the same time.

CONTROL HORN INSTALLATION

6EN

10. Make sure to apply epoxy on all surfaces of the control horn,

including the surface between the control horns.

11. Insert the control horns in the slots. Remove any excess epoxy using

a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol.

13. Follow the previous steps to install the control horns for the

elevators.

14. Place tape over the painted surface of the rudder control horn to

prevent removing any unwanted paint. Use medium-grit sandpaper

to lightly sand the control horn where it ﬁ ts into the rudder. Clean the

sanded area using a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove

any debris or oils. This provides the surface texture necessary for

the epoxy to bond to.

12. Fit the control horn ball link between the control horns. Slide the M3

x 15 socket head cap screws through the control horns and ball link

to hold the control horns in alignment until the epoxy fully cures.

15. Use a hobby knife with a #11 blade or thin ﬁ le to remove the paint

from the slots of the control horn plate.

16. Slide the control horn plate on the rudder control horn. It may be

necessary to lightly trim the opening in the plate to ﬁ t over the

control horn.

18. Slide the remaining control horn in the rudder.

19. Check that the control horns can be aligned parallel in the rudder.

They must also be centered and square to the rudder center line.

17. Slide the rudder control horn in the slot in the rudder. It may require

trimming the slot in the rudder to ﬁ t the control horn using the rotary

tool and drill bit.

7 EN

Timber 110 30–50cc ARF

20. Remove the control horns. Place low-tack tape around the control

horn. The tape should be 1/32-inch (1mm) from the control horn as

shown.

21. Slide the control horn partially in the slot. Mix and apply 30-minute

epoxy to the control horn.

23. Center the control horn and use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol

to remove any excess epoxy.

24. Repeat the process for the remaining rudder control horn. Fit two

ball ends between the horns, then use M3 x 15 socket head cap

screws to keep the control horns aligned while the epoxy cures.

22. Slide the control horn slightly through the rudder so epoxy can be

applied on the opposite side.

25. Use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove excess epoxy

from between the control horns.

26. Before the epoxy fully cures, remove the tape from around the

control horn. Allow the epoxy to fully cure before proceeding.

27. Use a small amount of 5-minute epoxy the control horn plates

in position. Remove any excess epoxy using a paper towel and

isopropyl alcohol.

8EN

1. Secure an 18-inch (460mm) servo extension to the servo using a

commercially available retainer (SPMA3054).

 The length of the extension may vary depending on servo selection.

The extension listed works with the recommended servos.

2. Tie or tape the string located inside the wing to the end of the servo

lead.

4. Fit the servo in the wing with the servo output toward the leading

edge. The servo arm will be centered in the opening. Mark the

locations for the servo mounting screws using a pencil, then remove

the servo.

5. Use a pin vise and a 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit to drill the holes for

the servo mounting screws in the locations marked in the previous

step.

 If using a drill, make sure not to drill through

the covering on the top of the wing.

3. Use the string to pull the servo lead through the wing and out at the

root.

 We left a small amount of the string on the aileron

servo lead so it can be quickly differentiated between

the flap servo lead that will be installed later.

6. Thread a servo mounting screw into each of the holes in the servo

mounting holes.

7. Remove the screws, then apply a small amount of thin CA to harden

the threads made in the previous step.

9. Repeat the previous steps to install the ﬂ ap servo in the wing

10. Assemble the linkage for the aileron. Make sure to use one of each

type of ball end when assembling the linkage. Thread each ball end

12 turns on the link.

 The link is designed to be adjustable. The

threads on one end are reversed.

8. After the CA has fully cured, secure the servo to the cover using the

screws provided with the servo.

FLAP AND AILERON SERVO INSTALLATION

Timber 110 30–50cc ARF

11. Secure the servo ball link to the servo arm using an M3 x 15 socket

head cap screw, M3 washer and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex

wrench and 5.5mm nut driver to tighten the hardware.

 The servo arm may not be threaded for metric hardware. It may

be necessary to drill and tap the hole for the M3 hardware, or drill

the hole over-size to pass the M3 screw through the servo arm.

12. Center the servo using the radio system. Attach the servo arm

parallel to the hinge line.

 The servo may require the use of sub-trim to properly

align the servo arm parallel to the hinge line. Try to

get the servo arm as close to center as possible, using

the radio system only for minor adjustments.

14. Use the wrench included with the airplane to adjust the linkage.

15. Continue to adjust until the aileron is aligned with the wing tip.

13. Attach the servo linkage to the control horn using an M3 x 15 socket

head cap screw, M3 washer and M3 lock nut. Use a 2.5mm hex

wrench and 5.5mm nut driver to tighten the hardware.

16. Repeat the previous steps to install and adjust the ﬂ ap linkage. This

installation will provide both up and down movement of the ﬂ ap to

increase the aerobatic capabilities of this model.

 Repeat this section to install the remaining aileron and flap servos.

 Remember to turn the radio system off.

10EN

 Do not mix any epoxy until instructed to do so.

1. Apply a small amount of oil to the center of the hinge to prevent

epoxy from entering the hinge.

2. Insert the hinge so the center of the hinge pin aligns with the front

edge of the bevel on the control surface. Check that the hinge can

move freely.

3. Slide the hinge into position. Position the hinge so it is perpendicular

to the hinge line when fully deﬂ ected.

6. Use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to remove any excess

epoxy. Check the alignment of the hinge.

7. Apply epoxy to the hinge and holes in the ﬁ n.

8. Slide the rudder into position. Use a paper towel and isopropyl

alcohol to remove any excess epoxy. Allow the epoxy to fully cure for

all hinges before proceeding.

1. Place the steering arm on the bottom of the rudder with the leading

edge of the arm aligned with the rudder hinge line. Make the

locations for the mounting screws on the rudder using a felt-tipped

pen.

2. Use a drill and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill the two locations

for the steering arm mounting screws.

4. Locate the tail wheel assembly and leaf springs. The springs are

different lengths. The longer spring will ﬁ t against the assembly, and

the short spring against the fuselage.

5. Remove the three M3 x 30 socket head cap screws and place a

drop of threadlock on the threaded end of each screw. Fit the short

spring, long spring, and assembly on the fuselage. Use the three

screws and a 2.5mm hex wrench to secure the springs against the

fuselage.

3. Prepare the holes by threading an M2 x 15 sheet metal screw in

each hole. Remove the screw and place a few drops of thin CA in

each hole. Once the CA has fully cured, use the screws and a #2

Phillips screwdriver to attach the steering arm on the bottom of the

rudder.

6. Use pliers to bend the spring ends so the overall length is 4

 Use care not to damage the tiller arm when securing the springs.

9. Repeat the previous steps to install the remaining spring.

 This model can also use the Super Scale Tailwheel from

the Hangar 9

®

XCub 60cc (HAN526014). Please be aware

this assembly is heavier than the supplied tail wheel.

TAIL WHEEL INSTALLATION

12EN

 This model can also use the sprung undercarriage from the

Hangar 9

®

XCub 60cc (HAN526024). This optional undercarriage

is substantially heavier than the supplied landing gear, and can

detract from the aerobatic performance. The mounts for the

sprung gear (and optional floats) are factory installed. All it takes

is the covering to be removed when these options are chosen.

1. Remove the windscreen from the fuselage by releasing the magnets

at the top and rotating it forward and off the fuselage. Remove

the landing gear cover from the fuselage exposing the slot for the

landing gear.

3. Prepare the four M4 x 20 socket head cap screws by placing an M4

lock washer and M4 washer on each of the screws. Place a drop of

threadlock on the threads of each screw.

4. Locate the two inner landing gear plates. The screws will thread into

the two holes indicated in the photo.

 Refer to checking the blind nuts on Page 5

before installing the screws.

2. Secure the axle to the landing gear using a 14mm and 17mm box

wrench.

5. Make sure the inner landing gear plates are oriented as shown in

the photo. For illustration purposes, they are shown here with the

landing gear not installed.

6. Attach the landing gear to the fuselage using the screws and plates

from the previous steps. A 2.5mm hex wrench through the landing

gear mounting hole and fuselage can help guide the plate into

position Leave the hardware loose until all four screws are installed.

8. Apply a drop of light machine oil on each of the axles.

7. Use a 3mm hex wrench to tighten the screws securing the gear to

the fuselage.

9. Slide the wheel on the axle. The wheel is secured using the retaining

Timber 110 30–50cc ARF

10. Use contact cement or two-sided tape to attach the landing gear

cover to the fuselage. Using tape allows the cover to be removed

for maintenance or to replace the landing gear or upgrade to the

optional ﬂ oats or tundra gear in the future.

1. Remove the hatch from the side of the fuselage.

3. Install the rudder servo in the fuselage with the output toward the

front of the fuselage. Make sure to harden the mounting screw

locations with thin CA before installing the servo.

4. Thread the servo ball end on the cable ﬁ tting. Thread the ball end

ten turns to make sure it is secure, and this allows for adjustment to

tighten the cables later. Prepare two servo ball ends.

 Prepare the two ball ends and cable fitting for the control horns.

2. Remove the hatch from the top of the fuselage.

5. Center the rudder servo using the radio system. Fit a 3 inch (76mm)

rudder servo arm on the servo so it is perpendicular to the servo

center line. Rotate the arm 180-degrees to get the closest position if

required. Use the sub-trim function on the transmitter to make any

ﬁ nal adjustments. Mark the servo arm so it can be returned to its

location, then remove it from the servo.

RUDDER SERVO INSTALLATION

Optional Landing Gear Fairing

11. An optional landing gear fairing has been included and is glued to

the landing gear using ﬂ exible adhesive. Use a clamp to hold the

landing gear fairing in position. Allow the adhesive to fully cure

before continuing the build of the model.

 The landing gear fairings are not recommended when

flying from rough surfaces as the gear will flex and

the fairings may release from the landing gear.

14EN

6. Enlarge the holes that are 5/8 inch (16mm) from the center of the

servo using a pin vise and 1/8-inch (3mm) drill bit. The ball ends will

attach to these holes.

7. Attach the ball ends to the rudder servo arm using two M3 x 15

socket head cap screws, two M3 washers and two M3 lock nuts.

Tighten the hardware using a 2.5mm hex wrench and 5.5mm nut

driver.

 Using a longer rudder servo arm and attaching the ball ends further

from the center of the arm will increase the amount of rudder throw.

9. Pass the cable through the hole in the cable ﬁ tting, then through the

sleeve.

10. Use crimping pliers to secure the sleeve to the cable.

 Before retrieving the cables, make sure they are

taped securely at the rear of the fuselage.

8. From the cables inside the fuselage, slide a sleeve on the cable.

11. Attach both rudder cables to the ﬁ ttings.

12. Attach the rudder servo arm to the rudder servo using the hardware

included with the servo.

1. Use the hardware included with the servo to secure the elevator

servo in the stabilizer. Make sure the servo output faces the leading

edge of the stabilizer.

 The elevator servo may be a snug fit and require

some maneuvering to fit it into position.

2. Assemble the linkage for the elevator. Make sure to use both types

of ball ends when assembling the linkage. Thread each ball end 12

turns on the link.

 The link is designed to be adjustable. The

threads on one end are reversed.

3. Attach the servo ball end to the servo arm. Center the elevator servo

using the radio system and place the servo arm on the servo.

 The servo may require the use of sub-trim to properly align

the servo arm perpendicular to the servo center line.

4. With the radio system off, rotate the elevator servo so the screws

can be installed to secure the arm if using the recommended Hangar

9 servo arms.

ELEVATOR AND ELEVATOR SERVO INSTALLATION

5. Slide the two 48-inch (1200mm) servo extensions through the

clear tube in the fuselage for the elevator servos. Make sure the

extensions are installed in the correct direction so they can be

connected to the receiver and elevator servos.

 The length of the extension may vary depending on servo selection.

The extension listed works with the recommended servos.

6. Retrieve the ends of the leads at the rear of the fuselage.

8. With the radio system on and the elevator servo connected to the

receiver, attach the ball end to the control horn using an M3 x 15

socket head cap screw, M3 washer and M3 lock nut. Tighten the

hardware using a 5.5mm nut driver and 2.5mm hex wrench. Adjust

the linkage to center the elevator using the wrench provided.

9. Slide the stabilizer tube into the stabilizer tube socket.

 The tube may be a tight fit in the socket. Polishing the tube with fine

sand paper or steel wool will help ease the installation of the tube.

7. Secure the lead in the fuselage to the elevator servo using a

commercially available retainer (SPMA3054).

10. Slide the stabilizer into position on the fuselage. Guide the leads into

the fuselage.

11. Secure the stabilizer to the fuselage using two M3 x 10 socket head

cap screw.

 Refer to checking the blind nuts on Page 5

before installing the screws.

 Place a drop of canopy glue on the screws before installation.

This will keep the screws from vibrating loose yet leave

them easily removable to disassemble the model.

 Thumb screws have also been provided to attach

the stabilizer, making it easier to assemble and

disassemble your model without tools.

 Remember to turn the radio system off.

 An optional Aerotow Release (HAN526013) can be installed in

this model. It will also require the use of a high-torque servo.

1. Mount the servo in the fuselage with the servo output facing the

bottom of the fuselage.

2. Remove the covering from the fuselage for the aerotow release

using a hobby knife and #11 blade. Mount the aerotow release in the

top of the fuselage. Make sure the slot in the release is parallel to

the trailing edge of the wing. Use a drop of threadlock on the nut to

prevent it from vibrating loose.

 There are two areas on the top of the fuselage that

are covered. The forward location is for lighting, and

the rear location for the aerotow release.

4. Thread a clevis on a 12-inch (300mm) pushrod (not included).

Remove any arms on the servo arm that will not be used using side

cutters. Attach the clevis to the servo arm.

5. Slide the pushrod through the aerotow release. Place the servo arm

back on the servo. Use the radio to move the servo to the locked

position.

3. Center the aerotow release servo and place the servo arm on the

servo perpendicular to the servo center line. Mark the arm that is

directly below the aerotow release.

OPTIONAL TOW HOOK RELEASE

6. Mark the pushrod at the edge of the release using a felt-tipped pen.

7. Remove the servo arm and pushrod from the fuselage. Cut the

pushrod at the mark. Use a ﬂ at ﬁ le to make a slight point on the end

of the pushrod so it will self-guide through the release.

8. Reinstall the servo arm and pushrod. Check the operation of the

release. Adjust the radio system if the servo binds at full release.

When in the release position, the end of the pushrod must be

completely clear of the slot in the body of the release.

 Remember to turn the radio system off.

1. Install the receiver in the fuselage. Mount any remote receivers in

the fuselage using hook and loop tape.

 Apply a small amount of 5-minute epoxy to the hook

and loop tape to secure it to the radio tray.

2. Connect the leads for the elevators and rudder, as well as the 18-

inch (460mm) extensions for the ailerons and ﬂ aps to the receiver.

Route the leads for the ailerons and ﬂ aps to the opening at the top of

the fuselage.

3. Follow the instructions included with the receiver for the correct

locations for the remote receivers.

 The locations shown are possible locations. Ensure

the locations of the remote receivers will not interfere

with components installed later in the build.

RECEIVER INSTALLATION

18EN

 Check the mount of any non-recommended motors

and verify that they can not be attached using the pre-

installed blind nuts. If not, the following outlines how to

modify the firewall for optional motor installations.

1. Mark the ﬁ rewall of the motor box 12mm from the sides and up

5mm from the bottom using a pencil.

2. Place the motor mount on the ﬁ rewall. Align the holes in the mount

on the lines made in the previous step.

4. Use a pencil to make the locations for the mounting screws through

the mount and on to the ﬁ rewall.

5. Set the mount aside and use a drill and 5/32-inch (4mm) drill bit to

drill the holes in the ﬁ rewall for the mounting screws.

3. Look through the back of the motor box to make sure the mount is

centered on the ﬁ rewall. The mount will show equally though the

hole in the ﬁ rewall.

OPTIONAL ELECTRIC MOTOR PREPARATION

6. Temporarily attach the mount to the ﬁ rewall using four M4 x 20

socket head cap screws, four M4 washers and four M4 lock nuts to

attach the mount to the ﬁ rewall. Use a 3mm hex wrench and 7mm

nut driver to tighten the hardware.

7. When attaching the mount, the washers and lock nut will clear the

pre-installed blind nuts as shown. If not, use a hobby knife and #11

blade to trim the wood around the nuts and washers so the washers

rest ﬂ ush on the wood. Remove the mount from the ﬁ rewall.

9. Attach the propeller adapter to the motor using the hardware

included with the adapter. Use a drop of threadlock on each screw to

prevent them from vibrating loose.

8. The mount can now be attached to the motor using the hardware

included with the motor. Use a drop of threadlock on each screw to

prevent them from vibrating loose.

1. Place the mounting template on the ﬁ rewall. Use low-tack tape to

hold the template in position. Use a drill and 3/32-inch (2.5mm) drill

bit to drill the four holes in the ﬁ rewall to attach the motor box.

 When using power systems other than the recommended

choices, we advise using the mounting template as a test

to ensure hole alignment before drilling the firewall.

2. Remove the template from the fuselage. Use a drill and 5/32-inch

(4mm) drill bit to enlarge the holes from the previous step.

4. Attach the propeller adapter to the motor using the hardware

included with the adapter. Use a drop of threadlock on each screw to

prevent them from vibrating loose.

5. Attach your motor to the ﬁ rewall. Adjust the position of the ﬁ rewall

so the distance from the rear of the motor box to the face of the

drive washer measures 7
