Before beginning assembly of your Obsession
3D ARF, we highly recommend that you study
this manual in its entirety. You should begin
planning your radio installation based on your
choice of engine and equipment from the begin-
ning.
Because the Obsession 3D ARF is intended
for those with some degree of modeling experi-
ence, every little detail will not be covered. This
is not a basic trainer. Assembly of this aircraft
will be easy for the experienced modeler, and
by following the instructions within this manual
and using the skills you’ve gained during your
modeling career you will be able to produce a
first class aircraft.
