• There are two types of screws used in this kit:
Sheet metal screws are designated by a number and
a length.
For example #6 x 3/4” [19mm]
This is a number six screw that is 3/4” [19mm] long.
Machine screws are designated by a number, threads
per inch, and a length.
For example 4-40 x 3/4” [19mm]
This is a number four screw that is 3/4” [19mm] long with
forty threads per inch.
• 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 stabilizer and wing incidences and motor thrust angles
have been factory-built into this model. However, some
technically minded modelers may wish to check these
measurements anyway. To view this information visit the
web site at www.greatplanes.com and click on “Technical
Data.” Due to manufacturing tolerances which will have
little or no effect on the way your model will fly, please
expect slight deviations between your model and the
published values.
