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.

The Venus II ARF is factory-covered with Top Flite

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. If only a small piece of
MonoKote is needed for a minor patch, perhaps a fellow
modeler would give you some. 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.

White (TOPQ0204)
Royal Blue (TOPQ0221)
Cub Yeller (TOPQ0220)
Orange (TOPQ0202)
True Red (TOPQ0227)
Dark Teal (TOPQ0223)
Metallic Plum (TOPQ0403)

The stabilizer and wing incidences and engine 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.
