:: Building Tips
Tires:
The tires need to be glued to the wheels using any fast-curing FT Tire glue (CA) (AE Pt#1597). This is available at your
local hobby shop. Make sure to clean the mounting surface of the tire with alchohol for best adhesion.
Gear Mesh:
To correctly set your gear mesh, follow the steps below:
1. Loosen engine mount screws so you can slide your engine and mount.
2. Slide engine and mount until the clutchbell gear comes in contact with the spur gear. Tighten engine mount screws.
Hold the spur gear in place and ‘rock’ the clutchbell gear. There should be a little ‘free-play’ between the gears.
3. If you have a small amount of ‘free-play’, continue building your RC8.2. If not, go back to Step 1.
Receiver Pack:
Your RC8.2 does not come with a receiver pack. It is recommended that you use a 5-cell 1600mah pack (minimum) in
either stick (AE Pt #612) or hump (AE Pt#613) pack configuration (your RC8.2 will accepteither). Charge your pack per
the battery manufacturer’s instructions. This will need to be done before you can setup up your RC8.2.
Engine Tuning:
Follow the manufacturers instructions to correctly tune your engine. You will need to adjust the fuel mixture according to
altitude, weather, etc.
Body :
Your RC8.2 comes with a clear
polycarbonate body. You will need to
prep the body before you can paint
it. Wash the inside thoroughly with
warm water and liquid detergent.
Dry using a clean, soft, lint-free
cloth. Use the supplied window
masks to cover the windows from
the INSIDE (RC cars get painted
from the inside). Using high quality
tape, apply to create a design to the
inside of the body. Spray (either can
or airbrush) the paint to the inside
of the body (NOTE: use ONLY paint
that is recommended for use with
(polycarbonate) plastics. If you don’t,
you will destroy the plastic body!!!!).
After painting, cut the body along
the trim lines. Make sure to cut
holes for the engine head, body
mounts, antenna, fuel tank lid, top
end adjustment needle and muffler
outlet.
Tires: (not included in kit)
Your tires need to be glued to the
wheels using a fast-curing Tire glue
(CA) (AE Pt#1597). This is available
at your local hobby shop. Make sure
to clean the mounting surface of the
tire with alchohol for best adhesion.
