Prepare the Battery Trays
(Brushless Installation Only)
❏
1. Three plywood battery trays and fourteen tie straps
are included for creating removable battery packs.
❏
2. Use two tie straps to secure two 11.1V 3200mAh LiPo
batteries to a battery tray. Align the straps in the notches cut
into the sides of the tray. The other two trays are provided
to make additional removable packs to decrease down time
between battery charging.
❏
3. The removable battery pack slides into the fuel tank
compartment. The pack will be held down by the canopy hatch
during fl ight. A series connector will be required to connect
the two 11.1V packs in series for a total of 22.2V. Use CA to
glue a small piece of hook and loop material to the aft end of
the battery tray and the back of the fuel tank compartment.
Install the Canopy Hatch and Spinner
❏
1. Test fi t the included pilot fi gure into the canopy hatch.
Trim the shoulder width as necessary for a snug fi t. Sand the
inside shoulder areas of the pilot with 220-grit sandpaper.
When satisfi ed, apply a bead of medium or thick CA glue
along the bottom edge of the pilot fi gure and fi t him in place.
Hold him still until the CA tacks. We do not recommend
using CA accelerator on the pilot as over spray could cause
discoloration of the canopy.
❏
2. Make a mixture of Top Flite Microballoons and epoxy. Use
a mixing stick or something similar to drip the epoxy into the
cavities where the pilot fi gure meets the canopy hatch base
as shown. This will help keep the pilot securely in place.
