harden the surrounding wood. This hardens the

wood, making the screws more secure.

11. Connect the wires from the motor to those

coming from the speed control.

12. Fit the fan unit into the fuselage with the fan

fairing facing to the bottom of the fuselage. Make

sure to fit the fan into the intake tube and that all the

screw holes for mounting the fan are visible through

the mounting lugs. Secure the fan unit in the fuselage

using four 2mm x 8mm sheet metal screws. Tighten

the screws using a #1 Phillips screwdriver.

1. Carefully roll or fold the exhaust tube into the

shape shown below. It is made of a durable clear

plastic and will not be harmed by doing so.

2. Slide the exhaust tube into the fuselage, with

the wider end of the tube entering the fuselage

from the rear. It will “pop” open when it has been

inserted fully into the fuselage.
