Great Planes Matt Chapman CAP 580 Giant ARF - GPMA1285 - Manual (Page 21)

❏
1. Attach the pilot to the canopy frame with 6-minute epoxy.
❏
2. Attach the instrument panel to the canopy frame with
medium CA.
❏
3. Remove the covering from the six mounting holes for
the canopy/hatch.
❏
4. Mount the canopy to the fuselage with six 8/32 x 1"
[25.4mm] SHCS, flat washers and lock washers.
1. Use scissors or a sharp hobby knife to cut the decals from
the sheet.
2. Be certain the model is clean and free from oily
fingerprints and dust. Prepare a dishpan or small bucket with
a mixture of liquid dish soap and warm water—about one
teaspoon of soap per gallon of water. Submerse the decal in
the soap and water and peel off the paper backing. Note:
Even though the decals have a “sticky-back” and are not the
water transfer type, submersing them in soap & water allows
accurate positioning and reduces air bubbles underneath.
3. Position decal on the model where desired, using the
picture on the box as a guide. Holding the decal down, use a
paper towel to wipe most of the water away.
4. Use a piece of soft balsa or something similar to squeegee
remaining water from under the decal. Apply the rest of the
decals the same way.
❏
1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver and center the trims.
If necessary, remove the servo arms from the servos and
reposition them so they are centered. Reinstall the screws that
hold on the servo arms.
❏
2. With the transmitter and receiver still on, check all the
control surfaces to see if they are centered. If necessary, adjust
the clevises on the pushrods to center the control surfaces.
❏
3. Make certain that the control surfaces and the
carburetor respond in the correct direction as shown in the
diagram. If any of the controls respond in the wrong direction,
use the servo reversing in the transmitter to reverse the
servos connected to those controls. Be certain the control
surfaces have remained centered. Adjust if necessary.
