Attaching the Horizontal Stabilizer

1. Locate the horizontal stabilizer of the tail.

2. Slide the horizontal stabilizer in the allotted space

of the fuselage, making sure the control horn

installed in the elevator will properly align with the

pushrod and clevis exiting the back of the fuselage.

3. When you are certain the horizontal stabilizer is

centered correctly and in the right place, use the

tape provided to properly secure the stabilizer to

the fuselage. Use the tape on the top and bottom

of each side of the horizontal stabilizer (total of 4

applications).

4. Make sure the throttle stick is in the full down (idle)

position. Turn on the transmitter and plug in the

flight battery.

5. Locate the lower clevis and pushrod exiting the

right side of the fuselage, and attach the clevis to

the outermost hole on the elevator control horn.

Slide the included retainer over the clevis to ensure

the clevis will not open.

6. Make any trim adjustments as necessary prior to

flight (see step 7).

Note: To make trim adjustments to the horizontal

stabilizer:

a. Confirm the throttle stick is in the full down (idle)

position and turn on the DX5e transmitter.

b. Connect the blue EC3 battery connector into the

EC3 device connector on the speed control.

c. Use the elevator trim of the radio by moving up or

down to achieve neutral position when the gimbal is

also at neutral. If these changes are not sufficient,

center the transmitter elevator trim (distinguished by

a long tone), then remove the clevis from the elevator

control horn and turn clevis in or out as needed to

move the elevator alignment back to neutral.

Warning: Always keep hands and all objects away

from the propeller in case the motor is engaged.

A moving propeller can cause severe injury and

damage.

Step 5

Installing the Landing Gear

Install the main landing gear by inserting the wire into

the locator hole in the wing. Swivel the landing gear

toward the retaining clips and gently snap into place.

NOTE: The landing gear is directional. When properly

installed, the landing gear will rake forward to add

stability in landing. If the gear does not angle forward

when installed, simply reverse the landing gear.

Step 4

Installing Landing Skids (Optional)

Two landing gear skids have been included with the F4U

Corsair should you choose to fly without the landing

gear. To install, simply apply the skids over the landing

gear mounts and secure with the included screws. The

rear edge of the skids can be secured to the Z-Foam

using double-sided tape.”
