GREAT PLANES Electrifly Rifle Manuel d'instruction
5. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not fl own this
type of model before, we recommend that you get the
assistance of an experienced pilot in your R/C club for
your fi rst fl ights. If you're not a member of a club, your
local hobby shop has information about clubs in your area
whose membership includes experienced pilots.
6. While this kit has been fl ight tested to exceed normal use,
if the plane will be used for extremely high stress fl ying,
such as racing, or if a motor larger than recommended
is used, the modeler is responsible for taking steps
to reinforce the high stress points and/or substituting
hardware more suitable for the increased stress.
7. WARNING: The fuselage, wing and horizontal stabilizer
included in this kit are made of fi berglass, the fi bers of
which may cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation.
Never blow into a part to remove fi berglass dust, as the
dust will blow back into your eyes. Always wear safety
goggles, a particle mask and rubber gloves when
grinding, drilling and sanding fi berglass parts. Vacuum
the parts and the work area thoroughly after working with
fi berglass parts.
We, as the kit manufacturer, provide you with a top quality,
thoroughly tested kit and instructions, but ultimately the
quality and fl yability of your fi nished model depends
on how you build it; therefore, we cannot in any way
guarantee the performance of your completed model,
and no representations are expressed or implied as to the
performance or safety of your completed model.
Remember: Take your time and follow the instructions to
end up with a well-built model that is straight and true.

DECISIONS YOU MUST MAKE

This is a partial list of items required to fi nish the Rifl e that
may require planning or decision making before starting
assembly. Order numbers are provided in parentheses.

Motor, Battery and ESC

The Rifl e was designed for and tested exclusively with the:
❍ ElectriFly Ammo
24-33-3180kV inrunner
brushless motor (GPMG5155)
This motor provided straight-and-level average speeds
of 90mph.
There are two different batteries suitable for the Rifl e. Due to
its larger capacity the:
❍ ElectriFly 11.1V (3S) 1500mAh 25C Power
Series LiPo (GPMP0511)
is preferred, but the:
❍ ElectriFly 11.1V (3S) 1300 mAh 25C Power
Series LiPo (GPMP0505)
is also suitable because it is only slightly less in capacity and
is also .5 oz [14g] lighter.
If purchasing several batteries for your Rifl e, it may be a
good idea to purchase at least one lighter battery, allowing
your Rifl e to be slightly more maneuverable and land slightly
slower which may be benefi cial at least for the fi rst fl ight.
Under "normal" fl ying conditions (mostly full throttle),
average fl ight times are approximately four minutes of
motor run time (with approximately one more minute for
multiple landing attempts).
The:
❍ Great Planes ElectriFly SS-25 25 Amp
brushless ESC (GPMM1820)
is also recommended.

Servos, Receiver

No unusual radio gear is required for the Rifl e, just a small
receiver and one elevator servo and aileron servo in the 15-
20 oz-in torque range that will fi t in the mounts.
Servos used in the prototypes for testing were both the:
❍ Great Planes ES50 Nano servos (GPMM1210)
and the
❍ Futaba
®
S3107 servos (FUTM0025).
Any mini 4-channel aircraft receiver will work. A Futaba 2.4GHz
R617FS FASST
receiver (FUTL7627) was also used in the
prototypes and is illustrated in the instruction manual.
The Rifl e was fl own exclusively with an:
❍ APC 4.75 x 4.75 Speed 400 electric propeller
(APCQ4910)
You should also have several spare propellers on-hand to
replace ones that break upon landing.
