3. Move the elevator up with your transmitter and move

the ruler forward so it will remain contacting the trailing edge.

The distance the elevator moves up from the center is the

"up" elevator throw. Measure the down elevator throw the

same way.

❏

4. Measure and set the high and low rate elevator throws

and the high, low and 3D rate throws for the rest of the

control surfaces the same way.

Note: We put exponential into the High rates and the 3D rates

to make the control throws less sensitive around neutral.

These can be set up to your own preference and flying style.

We put 20% to 30% in the high rate and 50% to 60% in the

3D rates.

1. Use a prop reamer or drill bit to enlarge the spinner

back plate to fit your motor's prop adapter. Install the

spinner back plate, propeller with washer and prop nut and

the spinner cone. Secure the spinner cone to the back plate

with two 3 x 12mm sheet metal screws.

2. Apply the instrument decal to the front of the cabin floor.

❏

3. To install the cabin floor in the canopy hatch, slide the

cabin floor into the cabin hatch from the front. If you prefer to

install an optional pilot figure, it will need to be installed as

the cabin floor is slid in. Once the floor is in, a pilot figure will

be difficult to install. Use thin CA to glue the cabin floor to the

canopy hatch frame.

❏

4. To install the canopy hatch on the fuselage, insert the

two guide pins in the front of the hatch in the two holes in the

front of the fuselage. Push the hatch down and slide it back.

The plywood tab on the bottom of the hatch should slide

under the frame in the fuselage and lock the hatch in place.
