IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT

WORKING WITH FIBERGLASS

If you have never worked with fiberglass there are a few

basic things you should be aware of:

• When you are cutting into fiberglass, be sure you are

cutting the correct place. Unlike wood, you are not able to

go back and easily fix a mistake.

• Whenever you are gluing a part to the inside of fiberglass

it is important to roughen the inside surface of the fiberglass

with 220-grit sandpaper and then wipe the area with

rubbing alcohol. The molding process leaves a waxy

residue that can prevent a good bond between the glue and

the parts being glued.

Warning: The fuselage included in this kit is made of

fiberglass, the fibers of which may cause eye, skin

and respiratory tract irritation. Never blow into a part

to remove fiberglass dust, as the dust will blow back

into your eyes. Always wear safety goggles, a particle

mask and rubber gloves when grinding, drilling or

sanding fiberglass parts. Vacuum the parts and the

work area thoroughly after working with fiberglass.

1. Locate the 1/8" [3.2mm] ply servo tray, aft former and

mid former. Glue the aft and mid formers to the servo tray

as shown above.

2. Locate the rear of the servo tray 12 inches from the nose

of the fuselage as shown in the photo above. Mark the

locations where the tray will be glued to the fuselage. Remove

the tray and sand the locations with 220-grit sandpaper. Clean

the area with a paper towel and rubbing alcohol. Glue the

servo tray into position with epoxy or medium CA.

3. Trial fit the battery tray into place as far forward as

possible in the nose of the fuselage. The tray should be 1-3/4"

[44.5mm] below the hatch opening at the rear edge. When

satisfied with the fit, glue the tray into place with epoxy.

Important: The battery tray should fit into the fuselage

without pushing the sides outwards. Carefully check that the

battery tray does not cause the fuselage sides to flex

outwards as it is inserted into place. Sand the sides of the tray

if necessary. If the sides flex outwards, the battery hatch will

not fit properly.
