• Choose emulsion paint suitable for polystyrene. (Pic.110)
• Before Paint, wipe all surface with medical alcohol and remove oil, dust,
dirt etc.
• For best results, hold the spray can about 20cm away from the surface. Do
not over painting for the sake of each additional lay will increase the weight
of the airplane. Please remember the lighter the better for the airplane.

• Insert the landing gears and fasten with 0 1.4 x 9 TP screws , then install the wheels (0 50.8 mm) to the
landing gears and fix with A1 retainers.(Pic.116.117.118)
• The C.G. (Center of Gravity) is located 50~57mm back from the leading edge ofthe wing. After all radio gears and
the battery pack is installed, check the C.G. point of the air plane. If the C.G. is offset, move the receiver and speed
controller forward or back ward until you find the recommended balancing point. The otherwayto balance the C.G.
point is to use the supplied clay to add weight. Do not fly if the plane is not properly balanced. (Pic. 119)

POWER SYSTEM SPECIFCATIONS
Caution: Do not use higher volt battery pack than we recommend(7.2~8.4V) it may cause any damage
on the motor such as weakening power, losing performance,shortening life , getting burnt ect.

RADIO SETTING
CONTROLLER FUNCTION
AND RADIO SET-UP
MODE 2
• The right side stick of the transmitter (elevator and aileron)
• The left side stick of the transmitter (throttle and nose steering)
ELEVATOR TEST
• Pull the stick backward then the elevator should flip up ( pull-up).
• Push the stick forward then the elevator should flip down (pushing down).
• When the stick is in neutral , the elevator should return to neutral position.
AILERON TEST
• Moving the stick to right, then the right side aileron should flip up and the left side
aileron should flip down.
• Moving the stick to left, then the right side aileron should flip down and the left side
aileron should flip up.
• When the stick is in neutral , the two ailerons should return to neutral position.
THROTTLE TEST
• Pull the stick all the way backward and the trimmer at the 1/3 position ,then wait for 2
seconds.
• Slowly push the stick forward and the power system starts to run. Now push the
throttle all the way forward and the motor should run athigh speed.
• Pull the stick all the way backward and the motor should stop.
NOSE STEERING TEST
• Moving the stick to right, the nose steering should turn to the right.
• Moving the stick to left, the nose steering should turn to the left.
• When the stick is in neutral , the nose steering should return to neutral position.
MODE 1
• The right side stick of the transmitter (throttle and aileron)
• The left side stick of the transmitter (elevator and nose steering)
• If the control fin or throttle is not on the correct movement, please switch the reverse
on the transmitter.

PREFLIGHT CHECKING LIST
caution!
1. It is best for you to fly your plane In a large open place.
2. Do not fly around some restricted location like airports, military bases, etc.
3. You will need to range check the transmitter to be sure you are not experiencing any
interference. (If you are flying with other RC modeler at a field, do not turn on your transmitter
until you are certain that no one else is using your channel.)
4. Always turn on the receiver last after turning on the transmitter and shut off the receiver first
before turning off the transmitter.
5. If you are only a beginner to the radio control model flying, do not attempt to fly your model
without any assistance or advice from advanced expert fliers.
6. Please refer to the instruction guide carefully and thoroughly before assembling equipment kits.
Different power units and servos combination will lead to its various flight performance .
Remember the lighter the better.
TAKE OFF
nil The Wind Direction
1. Apply full throttle to speed up the airplane against the wind.
2. Keep the tracking straight using the nose steering during the
take-off process.
3. Apply just a touch of up-elevator when the model reaches
sufficient takeoff speed and the model lifts smoothly into the air.
4. Make the turn when the model is at a high altitude. Then the trim all
control surfaces to achieve the level flight.
LANDING
nil The Wind Direction
/
1. Gradually reduce the throttle during the final pattern for speed down the
airplane.
2. Slightly touch up-elevator to maintain a smooth ratio of the descendent
process .Do not apply too much up-elevator otherwise the plane may
go into a stall.
3. Make a final turn against the wind and heading to the runway.
4. When the altitude approximately 30cm from the ground, pull a little more
up-elevator and let the airplane nose-up and touch- down.
