 RACCOMANDAZIONI PER OPERARE IN SICUREZZA

• Controllare attentamente il modello prima di ogni volo per accertarsi che sia idoneo.

• Essere consapevoli che un altro utente della frequenza in uso, potrebbe procurare delle interferenze.

• Essere sempre cortesi e rispettosi nei confronti degli altri utilizzatori dell’area in cui ci si trova.

• Scegliere un’area libera da ostacoli e abbastanza ampia da permettere lo svolgimento del volo in sicurezza.

• Prima del volo veriﬁ care che l’area sia libera da amici e spettatori.

• Stare attenti alle altre attività che si svolgono in vicinanza della vostra traiettoria di volo, per evitare possibili conﬂ itti.

• Pianiﬁ care attentamente il volo prima di lanciare il modello.

• Rispettare sempre scrupolosamente le regole stabilite dall’associazione locale.

 PRIMA DI INIZIARE IL MONTAGGIO

• Togliere tutti i pezzi dalla scatola.

• Veriﬁ care che la fusoliera, l’ala e i piani di coda non siano danneggiati.

• Se si trovano parti danneggiate, contattare il negozio da cui è stato acquistato.

• Caricare il trasmettitore e la batteria di volo.

• Centrare stick e trim sul trasmettitore.

• Con una radio computerizzata creare una nuova memoria per questo modello.

• Facendo riferimento alle istruzioni del radiocomando, connettere (bind) trasmettitore e ricevitore.

IMPORTANTE: Ripetere la procedura di connessione una volta regolate le corse, per evitare che i servi vadano a ﬁ ne

corsa. Garantirà anche che le impostazioni di inversione del servo vengano salvate nel sistema radio.

 PRECAUZIONI PER LA COSTRUZIONE

Durante l’assemblaggio noi consigliamo di appoggiare le varie parti su di una superﬁ cie morbida come un

asciugamano di spugna per evitare ammaccature al rivestimento.

 TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

Use the 3-view drawing at the back of this manual to

determine the amount of space required to transport and

store your model. The model can be disassembled, so the

amount of room necessary can vary. We recommend the

use of a wing bag to help protect these surfaces during

transport and storage. The control horns and linkages can

also cause damage to nearby surfaces even when placed

in storage bags. Always place surfaces so the tops are

together to prevent damage from the control horns and

linkages.

 ENGINE SELECTION

We recommend the 15cc Evolution

®

engine for this

model. It provides great performance and more than

scale aerobatic capability. We understand some of our

customers may want more than scale performance. In

testing and development of the F6F-5 Hellcat, many

changes were made so it would accommodate the

20cc Evolution gas engine as an option. No changes

are required to the airframe to accommodate the

Evolution 20cc gas engine. Changes were made during

the development of the Hellcat to the ﬁ rewall, wing

joiner, elevator pushrod and rudder pushrod to cope

with the increase in performance. It is still advisable

to moderately use of full throttle. The 20cc is a large

power plant for a plane this size, and while full power

application on a upline is allot of fun, we advise against

misuse of the throttle in stages of the ﬂ ight such as

downlines, dives etc.

We found one area subjected to extra loads with the

larger power option was the large elevator and horizontal

stabilizer. The stabilizer structure has been assembled

to accommodate the increased power of the 20cc gas

engine. In addition, a larger than normal elevator pushrod

has been supplied with your model. We do recommend

the use of a metal-geared servo for the elevator to

compensate for the increased loads required from the

use of the larger gas engine.

 TRANSPORT UND LAGERUNG

Mit der Zeichnung aus drei Ansichten am Ende des

Handbuchs lässt sich ermitteln, wie viel Platz zum

Transport und zur Lagerung des Modells benötigt

wird. Das Modell kann demontiert werden, daher ist

der erforderliche Platz variabel. Die Empfehlung einer

Flügeltasche wird empfohlen, um diese Oberﬂ ächen bei

Transport und Lagerung zu schützen. Die Steuerhörner

und Gestänge können zudem Schäden an benachbarten

Oberﬂ ächen verursachen, auch wenn sie in Taschen

gelagert sind. Oberﬂ ächen stets so platzieren, dass

die Oberseiten aneinander liegen, um Schäden durch

Steuerhörner und Gestänge zu vermeiden.

 MOTORWAHL

Wir empfehlen den 15cc Evolution

®

-Motor für dieses

Modell. Er bietet eine großartige Leistung und mehr

als nur eine maßstabgetreue Kunstﬂ ugfähigkeit. Wir

wissen, dass einige unserer Kunden mehr wollen, als

nur die maßstabgetreue Leistung. Bei der Erprobung und

Entwicklung der F6F-5 Hellcat wurden viele Änderungen

vorgenommen, damit sie den 20ccm Evolution-

Gasmotor als Option unterbringen kann. Am Rahmen

sind keine Änderungen notwendig, damit der Evolution

20cc Gasmotor passt. Änderungen an Brandschott,

Tragﬂ ächen-Verbinder, Höhenruder-Gestänge und

Seitenruder-Gestänge wurden während der Entwicklung

der Hellcat vorgenommen, um die Leistungszunahme zu

bewältigen. Es ist immer noch ratsam, Vollgas mäßig zu

verwenden. Der 20cc Motor ist für ein Flugzeug dieser

Größe ein großes Kraftpaket, und während das Anlegen

der vollen Leistung auf einer Upline viel Spaß macht,

raten wir davor, die Gaszufuhr in Phasen des Fluges wie

Downlines, Sturzﬂ ügen usw. zu missbrauchen.

Ein Bereich, der zusätzlichen Belastungen bei

größeren Antriebsoptionen ausgesetzt war, ist das

große Höhenruder und der horizontale Stabilisator. Die

Stabilisatorstruktur wurde zusammengebaut, um die

erhöhte Leistung des 20-cc-Gasmotors aufzunehmen.

Außerdem wurde eine größere als das normale

Höhenruder-Gestänge mit Ihrem Modell geliefert. Wir

empfehlen die Verwendung eines Metallgetriebeservos

für das Höhenruder, um die größeren Lasten

auszugleichen, die durch die Verwendung des größeren

Gasmotors benötigt werden.

 TRANSPORT ET STOCKAGE

Utilisez le schéma à 3 vues à l’arrière de ce manuel

pour déterminer l’espace nécessaire pour transporter

et stocker votre maquette. La maquette peut être

démontée, l’espace nécessaire peut donc varier. Nous

vous conseillons d’utiliser un sac à ailes pour protéger

ces surfaces lors du transport et du stockage. Les

renvois de commande et tringleries peuvent également

endommager les surfaces proches même si rangés dans

des sacs de rangement. Placez toujours ces surfaces

de manière à ce que les sommets soient ensemble

pour prévenir tout dommage causé par les renvois de

commande et les tringleries.

 CHOIX DU MOTEUR

Nous recommandons d’utiliser le moteur Evolution

®

15cc pour cette maquette. Il assure des performances

optimales et bien plus par rapport aux fonctions

acrobatiques des modèles réduits. Nous comprenons

que certains de nos clients souhaitent peut-être plus

que des performances de maquette. Lors des tests et du

développement du Hellcat F6F-5, plusieurs modiﬁ cations

ont été apportées aﬁ n de proposer le moteur à essence

Evolution 20cc comme option. Aucune modiﬁ cation

requise sur la structure de vol pour utiliser le moteur

à essence Evolution 20cc. Des modiﬁ cations ont été

apportées pendant le développement du Hellcat au pare-

feu, la tige, la barre de liaison de l’élévateur et la barre

de liaison de la gouverne pour assurer l’augmentation

des performances. Il est conseillé d’utiliser de manière

modérée les pleins gaz. Le moteur 20cc correspond à

une grande centrale pour un avion de cette taille, et bien

qu’une application en pleine puissance en montée soit

très amusant, nous déconseillons d’accélérer lors de

certaines étapes du vol, par ex. pendant les descentes,

les plongeons, etc.

Nous avons observé une zone soumise à des charges

supplémentaires avec l’option d’alimentation plus

grande: un grand élévateur et le stabilisateur horizontal.

La structure du stabilisateur a été montée pour s’adapter

à la plus grande puissance du moteur à essence 20cc.

De plus, une barre de liaison d’élévateur plus large

qu’à l’habitude est fournie avec votre maquette. Nous

vous recommandons d’utiliser un servo à engrenages

métalliques pour l’élévateur aﬁ n de compenser les

charges supplémentaires requises pour l’utilisation d’un

plus grand moteur à essence.

 TRASPORTO E DEPOSITO

Fare riferimento al trittico riportato sul retro di questo

manuale per determinare lo spazio necessario al

trasporto e all’immagazzinaggio del modello. Il modello

può essere smontato e, di conseguenza, lo spazio

necessario può variare. È consigliabile usare delle borse

alari per proteggere queste superﬁ ci durante il trasporto

e l’immagazzinaggio. Squadrette e rinvii possono

danneggiare le superﬁ ci circostanti anche all’interno delle

borse. Per prevenire questo problema, sistemare sempre

le superﬁ ci facendo combaciare le superﬁ ci superiori.

 SCELTA DEL MOTORE

Per questo modello raccomandiamo il motore Evolution

®

15cc. Offre grandi prestazioni e capacità acrobatiche

superiori rispetto a quelle in scala. Crediamo infatti

che alcuni dei nostri clienti desiderino prestazioni

migliori di quelle in scala. Durante le prove e lo sviluppo

dell’F6F-5 Hellcat, sono state effettuate diverse modiﬁ che

per potervi inserire il motore a benzina opzionale

Evolution 20cc. L’utilizzo di questo motore non richiede

alcuna modiﬁ ca alla cellula. I cambiamenti apportati

all’Hellcat in fase di sviluppo hanno riguardato la paratia

tagliaﬁ amma, l’elemento di giunzione dell’ala, l’asta di

comando dell’elevatore e del timone, mirati a supportare

prestazioni maggiori. Si consiglia di utilizzare la massima

potenza con moderazione. Il 20cc è un motore molto

potente per un aeromodello di queste dimensioni, e se

applicare la massima potenza in una traiettoria verticale

è molto divertente, sconsigliamo un uso improprio del

comando motore in fasi di volo come discese verticali,

picchiate, ecc.

Una delle aree che deve sostenere un peso maggiore se

si installa il motore opzionale è quella in cui di trovano

il grande elevatore e lo stabilizzatore orizzontale. La

struttura dello stabilizzatore è stata assemblata per

supportare la maggiore potenza del motore a benzina

20cc. Inoltre, il modello è dotato di un’asta di comando

dell’elevatore di larghezza superiore alla norma.

Consigliamo l’uso di un servo con ingranaggi in metallo

per l’elevatore per compensare i carichi più elevati dovuti

alla scelta di un motore a benzina più grande.

 AILERON INSTALLATION

1. Separate the aileron slightly from the wing so the hinges are

visible. Use a felt-tipped pen to make a mark indicating the

center of the hinges on both the aileron and wing. Make the

mark on the underside of the wing so it is less visible when

the model has been completed.

2. Remove the aileron from the wing. Set the hinges aside in a

safe location.

3. Test ﬁ t the white aileron control horn in the slot in the aileron.

Check that the horn is 90-degrees to the surface of the

aileron. If not, lightly trim the hole in the aileron to reposition

the control horn.

4. Place low-tack tape around the aileron control horn. The tape

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

5. 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.

6. Apply epoxy to the area of the control horns that ﬁ ts into the

slots. Use enough epoxy so the control horns will be fully

bonded to the ﬁ xed surfaces.

7. Remove the control horns from the control surfaces. 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.

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

the control horn. This will allow the epoxy to ﬂ ow around the

control horn, creating a small ﬁ llet between the control horn

and surface for a ﬁ nished look and secure bond.

9. Use a pin vise and 1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill a hole in

the center of each hinge slot marked previously. Drill the hole

1/4-inch (6mm) deep into the wood. Drill holes in both the

wing and aileron hinges slots now.

 Drilling this hole provides a tunnel for the CA to fully wick

into the hinge and surrounding surface. Failure to drill this

hole may result in a hinge that may not be glued properly.

10. Place a T-pin in the center of each of the three hinges.

12EN

11. Slide the hinges into position in the aileron with the T-pin

resting against the edge of the control surface.

16. Check both the up and down movement of the hinges before

proceeding.

 Repeat this section for the remaining aileron installation.

12. Fit the aileron and ﬂ ap to the wing by inserting the hinges into

the slots in the wing. Position the aileron so the gap is equal

between the aileron and wing.

 AILERON SERVO INSTALLATION

17. Remove the aileron servo cover from the wing. Tape the string

to the wing so it won’t fall into the wing. Use a toothpick

or hobby knife to puncture the covering for the servo cover

mounting screws.

13. Apply thin CA to the top and bottom of each of the hinges.

Make sure to fully soak the hinges so the CA can wick into

the hinge and bond to the surrounding wood.

 Use thin CA so it wicks into the hinge. A thicker CA

will not wick into the hinge properly. Do not to allow the

CA to run over the covering on the wing and aileron.

18. Use a pin vise and 3/32-inch (2.5mm) drill bit to drill the holes

for the servo cover screws.

14. Allow the CA to cure for 10 to 15 minutes. Gently pull on the

ﬁ xed surface and control surface to make sure the hinges are

glued securely. If not, apply additional CA to secure each of

the hinges.

19. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to thread the M3 x 10 self-

tapping screws into the holes. Remove the screws before

proceeding to the next step.

 Do not press down excessively on the

screw as it could damage the structure.

15. Move the aileron through its range of travel to break in the

hinges.

20. Apply a small amount of thin CA to harden the threads

made in the previous step. Allow the CA to fully cure before

installing the aileron servo cover.

5/8 inch

(16mm)

21. Use a pin vise and 5/32-inch (2mm) drill bit to drill the holes

for the servo mounting screws. Make sure to harden the

holes using the technique outlined in the previous steps.

Use the screws provided with the servo and a #1 Phillips

screwdriver when installing the screws.

26. When attaching the linkage to the aileron servo arm, use the

hole in the arm that is 5/8-inch (16mm) from the center of

the arm.

 The suggested measurements will result in a scale roll

rate. A longer servo arm can be used for a faster roll rate.

23. Secure the servo to the cover using a #1 Phillips screwdriver

and the screws provided with the servo.

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

at the root.

22. Install the grommets and eyelets in the servos. Follow any

instructions included with the servo. Prepare both aileron

servos.

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

servo lead.

24. Secure a 12-inch (300mm) servo extension to the servo using

a commercially available retainer (SPMA3054).

25. Center the servo, then secure the servo arm so it is

perpendicular to the servo centerline. Use side cutters to

remove any unneeded servo arms.

29. Secure the servo to the wing using four M3 x 10 self-tapping

screws. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws.

30. Assemble and attach the aileron linkage to the servo arm. The

aileron pushrod is 2

31. Loosen the nuts, then place a drop of threadlock on the

linkage near the clevises. Tighten the nuts over the threadlock

and against the clevises.

 Repeat this section for the remaining

aileron servo installation.

 FIXED GEAR INSTALLATION - WIRE STRUT

32. Use a hobby knife with a #11 blade to remove the covering,

exposing the mounts for the ﬁ xed landing gear.

 The wire strut can be painted using Royal Blue paint

(TAM81503) so they blend in with the gear doors.

33. Use a drill and 13/64-inch (5mm) drill bit to enlarge the hole

in the wheel for the axle.

34. Use a ﬂ at ﬁ le to create a ﬂ at area on the ﬁ rst 1/4-inch (6mm)

of the landing gear. File a second ﬂ at area that is 1/4-inch

(6mm) wide centered 1

the axle.

35. Prepare the M3 x 20 socket head cap screws by placing a

washer and lock washer on each screw.

36. Secure the landing gear using the screws prepared in the last

step. Make sure to place a drop of threadlock on each screw

before placing them in position. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench to

tighten the screws.

37. Slide a wheel collar on the axle. Secure the wheel collar

by tightening the M3 x 4 setscrew on the ﬂ at area made

previously. Make sure to place a drop of threadlock on the

setscrew before tightening it using a 1.5mm hex wrench.

38. Apply a drop of light machine oil to the axle.

39. Slide the wheel on the axle. Secure the wheel using a wheel

collar and M3 x 4 setscrew. Apply a drop of threadlock on the

41. Use medium CA to glue the gear door mounts to the gear

door.

42. Make sure to prepare a left and right gear door.

43. Roughen the wire strut where the gear door mounts meet

the strut. Use 15-minute epoxy and micro balloons to glue

the four gear door brackets to the top and bottom of the gear

door mounts and to the wire strut.

44. Before the epoxy cures, position the landing gear door so it

will not contact the ground during take-off and landing.

the ﬁ xed gear wire to 13/16-inches (20mm) Use a ﬂ at ﬁ le

to make a ﬂ at area along the front edge of the remaining

landing gear wire.

47. Slide the strut on the landing gear wire. Tighten the

setscrews, securing the strut to the wire.

48. Place the axle in the strut. With the assembly ﬂ at on the work

surface, the body of the mount and axle will lay ﬂ at on the

work surface. If not, ﬁ le the ﬂ at area slightly to change the

positioning of the strut. Once set, the setscrews can have a

drop of threadlock applied and tightened into position using a

2mm hex wrench.

49. Use a pin vise and 1/8-inch (3mm) drill bit to drill the

mounting holes in the landing gear door using the

measurements shown in the photo.

50. Use an M3 x 5 button head screw to temporarily attach the

gear door mounts to the gear doors using the pre-drilled

holes in the gear door. Leave the screws slightly loose so the

mounts can be aligned with the strut. Use a 2mm hex wrench

when installing the screws.

 The gear doors can be painted using Royal

Blue paint (TAM81503) so they blend in with

the scale appearance of the model.

 RETRACT WHEEL WELL INSTALLATION

60. Use a hobby knife and #11 blade to remove the covering from

the bottom of the wing to expose the opening for the retract.

61. Test ﬁ t the retract wheel well to the wing. Start trimming the

wheel well at the front to clear the landing gear mounts.

62. Remove the material from the wheel well so it ﬁ ts ﬂ ush with

the wing.

 Use care when trimming the plastic pieces to avoid chipping

the paint. The matching paint is listed in the front of this manual.

63. Check the ﬁ t of the retract to the wheel well. It will be

necessary to trim the wheel well accordingly.

64. Use hobby scissors to trim the wheel well to ﬁ t the retract.

Use medium grit sandpaper to smooth any rough edges after

trimming.

65. Lightly sand the outside of the wheel well where it contacts

the wing with medium grit sandpaper. Use a paper towel and

isopropyl alcohol to remove any oil or debris from the wheel

well.

66. Lightly sand the wing 1/8-inch (3mm) from the edge of the

opening with medium grit sandpaper. Use a paper towel and

isopropyl alcohol to remove any oil or debris from the wing

where the wheel well.

67. Use 15-minute epoxy or contact adhesive to glue the wheel

well to the wing. Use low-tack tape to hold the wheel well

tightly in position until the adhesive fully cures.

 The wheel wells can be touched up using Royal

Blue paint (TAM81503) so they blend in with the wing.

 Repeat this section for the remaining wheel well installation.

 RETRACT INSTALLATION - WIRE STRUT

-inches (140mm)

from the collar on the strut. This is an approximate position

for the axle.

18EN

70. Guide the lead from the retract along the side of the wheel

well. The lead can be retrieved in the same area as the

aileron extension.

71. Secure the retract in the wing using the hardware included

with the retract. Place a drop of threadlock on each of the

screws before installing them in the retract. Use a 2mm hex

wrench to tighten the screws.

 It may be necessary to use the spacers included with

the retracts to make sure there is no torsional stress on the

retract frame when tightened into position. Torsional stress can

sometimes cause intermittent operation of the retract unit.

72. With the gear in the up position, the axle must be centered in

the wheel well. Reposition the axle as necessary.

 We recommend making two flat areas with a

file to tighten the screws onto. This will prevent the

axle from rotating on the landing gear wire.

73. Place two nylon spacers on the axle. Apply a drop of light

machine oil on the axle.

74. Slide the wheel on the axle. Place the wheel collar included

with the retracts on the axle. Use the M3 x 3 setscrew to

secure the wheel collar on the axle. Make sure to place a

1.5mm hex wrench.

75. Check that there is a slight amount of toe-in (roughly

1-degree). Adjustments can be made by loosening the two

setscrews on the strut near the mount using a 1.5mm hex

wrench.

 Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners.

76. Double-check that the wheel is centered in the wheel well.

Reposition the axle if necessary or bend the strut slightly so

the wheel is perfectly centered.

77. Trim the covering 1/8-inch (3mm) forward and aft of the

notch in the landing gear door to expose the underlying wood.

78. Use medium CA to glue the gear door mounts to the gear

door.

79. Make sure to prepare a left and right gear door.

 Read through the following steps before installing the

gear doors. They must be aligned before the epoxy fully cures.

80. Roughen the wire strut where the gear door mounts meet

the strut. Use 15-minute epoxy and micro balloons to glue

the four gear door brackets to the top and bottom of the gear

door mounts and to the wire strut.

81. Position the landing gear door so it will not contact the ground

during take-off and landing.

82. Retract the landing gear. Position the gear door so it is parallel

to the bottom of the wing. Use a small amount of silicone

adhesive to glue the gear door mounts to the gear wire.

Check the position of the gear door as the adhesive cures.

 Repeat this section for the remaining retract installation.

83. Use a rotary tool and cut-off wheel to cut the length of the

retract gear wire to 13/16-inches (20mm) Use a ﬂ at ﬁ le

to make a ﬂ at area along the front edge of the remaining

landing gear wire.

85. Use an M3 x 5 button head screw to temporarily attach the

gear door mounts to the gear doors using the pre-drilled

holes in the gear door. Leave the screws slightly loose so the

mounts can be aligned with the strut. Use a 2mm hex wrench

when installing the screws.

 The gear doors can be painted using Royal

Blue paint (TAM81503) so they blend in with

the scale appearance of the model.

86. Slide the strut through the gear door mounts.

87. Fit the strut on the gear wire. Temporarily tighten the

setscrews to secure the strut to the wire using a 2mm hex

wrench.

 Do not over-tighten the setscrews

as this may damage the strut.

88. Guide the lead from the retract along the side of the wheel

well. The lead can be retrieved in the same area as the

aileron extension.

89. Secure the retract in the wing using the hardware included

with the retract. Place a drop of threadlock on each of the

screws before installing them in the retract. Use a 2mm hex

wrench to tighten the screws.

 It may be necessary to use the spacers included with

the retracts to make sure there is no torsional stress on the

retract frame when tightened into position. Torsional stress can

sometimes cause intermittent operation of the retract unit.

84. Use a pin vise and 1/8-inch (3mm) drill bit to drill the

mounting holes in the landing gear door using the

measurements shown in the photo.

90. Use a ﬂ at ﬁ le to make a ﬂ at are for the ﬁ rst 1/2-inch (12mm)

of the axle.

91. Use a drill and 13/64-inch (5mm) drill bit to enlarge the hole

in the wheel for the axle.

92. Apply a drop of light machine oil to the axle. Slide the axle

into the wheel. Slide a wheel collar on the axle, then secure it

using an M3 x 4 setscrew and 1.5mm hex wrench. Make sure

to use threadlock on the setscrew before installation.

 Check that the wheel can rotate freely on the axle.

93. Slide the axle into the strut. Apply a drop of threadlock on

the M3 x 3 setscrew supplied with the struts. Tighten the

setscrew on the ﬂ at using a 1.5mm hex wrench.

95. Check that the gear good closes ﬂ at against the wing, and

that the door does not interfere with the operation of the

retract. Once set, secure the gear door to the strut using four

M3 x 4 setscrews and a 1.5mm hex wrench. Remember to

tighten the screws holding the door to the mounts using a

2mm hex wrench at this time. Place a drop of threadlock on

all metal-to-metal fasteners.

 It may be necessary to lightly file the surface

of the gear door mounts that contact the gear door

so the door will lay flay against the wing.

 Do not over-tighten the setscrews as this will damage

the gear door mounts or restrict the movement of the strut.

 Repeat this section for the remaining retract installation.

 STABILIZER INSTALLATION

96. Remove the two thumb screws that secure the canopy hatch

to the fuselage.

 The nylon bolt can be shortened to make

securing the canopy hatch easier. A metal fastener

can also be substituted (not included).

97. Lift the canopy hatch from the fuselage at the rear. Slide the

hatch back and remove it from the fuselage. Set it aside in a

safe location.

94. Check that there is a slight amount of toe-in (roughly

1-degree). Adjustments can be made by loosening the

two setscrews on the strut near the mount using a 1.5mm

hex wrench. The ﬂ at on the retract wire may need slight

adjustment to ensure the retract strut does not rotate on the

wire.

 Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners.

98. Slide the wing tube into the wing tube socket.

 The wing tube may be a tight fit in the socket.

Polishing the wing tube with fine sand paper or steel

wool will help ease the installation of the wing tube.
