Inch Scale
Metric Scale
To convert inches to millimeters, multiply inches by 25.4
Machine screws are designated by a number, threads per
inch and a length. For example 4-40 x 3/4"
This is a #4 screw that is 3/4" long with
forty threads per inch.
• During the construction we often refer to the “top” or
“bottom” of the model or a part of the model. It is understood
that the “top” or “bottom” of the model is as it would be when
the airplane is right side up and will be referred to as the
“top” even if the model is being worked on upside-down.
• When you see the term test fit in the instructions, it
means that you should first position the part on the
assembly
without using any glue, then slightly modify or
custom fit the part as necessary for the best fit.
• Whenever the term glue is written you should rely upon
your experience to decide what type of glue to use. When a
specific type of adhesive works best for that step, the
instructions will make a recommendation.
• Whenever just epoxy is specified you may use either
30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy or 6-minute epoxy. When
30-minute epoxy is specified it is highly recommended that
you use only 30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy, because you
will need the working time and/or the additional strength.
• Photos and sketches are placed before the step they
refer to. Frequently you can study photos in following steps
to get another view of the same parts.
• The Big Stik ARF is factory-covered with Top Flite
MonoKote ® film. Should repairs ever be required, MonoKote
can be patched with additional MonoKote purchased
separately. MonoKote is packaged in six-foot rolls, but some
hobby shops also sell it by the foot. MonoKote is applied with
a model airplane covering iron, but in an emergency a
regular iron could be used. A roll of MonoKote includes full
instructions for application. Following are the colors used on
this model and order numbers for six foot rolls.
True Red (TOPQ0227)
White (TOPQ0204)
Black (TOPQ0208)
