4. Cut the pilot body as needed to fit under the canopy.
❏
5. Epoxy the pilot into the rear seat of the cockpit.
❏
6. Mount the canopy to the fuselage. You may either glue
it in place with Z-56 canopy glue or you may screw it in place
with six #2 x1/2" [13mm] screws. We have provided six 1/8"
x 1/2" x1/2" [3 x 13 x 13mm] plywood plates to be glued into
the fuselage where the mounting screws come through
the fuselage.
1. The following photos as well as the photos on the box will
aid in the placement of the decals.
2. Use scissors or a sharp hobby knife to cut the decals from
the sheet.
3. 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.
4. Position decal on the model where desired. Holding the decal
down, use a paper towel to wipe most of the water away.
5. 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.
