Congratulations on your new STUNTMASTER!
Completing the model:
You will need the following tools to complete the model:
Ruler or tape measure
•
Small cross-point screwdriver
•
Slot-head screwdriver (approx. 5 mm)
•
Sharp balsa knife
•
Pointed-nose pliers
•
Zacki Elapor adhesive # 852727
•
Start by checking the kit components against the Parts List
on page 15 (Fig. 01), to ensure that everything is present
in the box.
1. Installing the undercarriage (Fig. 02):
Apply a drop of Zacki to each side of the fuselage 1,
and push the two undercarriage legs 10 and 11 into the
appropriate openings. Ensure that the fuselage is level
when standing on the undercarriage.
2. Attaching the wing (Fig. 03):
Working from the right-hand side, slide the wing 2 half-way
through the fuselage 1. Now apply a little Zacki to the central
area of the wing, top and bottom.
àTip: if you apply the glue only to the left-hand area of the
wing centre section, the action of pushing the wing into place
will distribute the adhesive over the whole joint surface.
Push the wing fully into the fuselage, checking immediately
that the two components are exactly at right-angles to each
other. It is essential that the wing is "square" to the fuselage,
i.e. dimensions A and B must be identical. The wing must
also be at right-angles to the fuselage when viewed from
the nose or tail. If excess glue is squeezed out of the joint,
wipe it off using a paper towel.
3. Attaching the tailplane (Fig. 4):
The procedure for fi tting the tailplane 3 is similar to that for
attaching the wing. Dimensions C and D must be identical.
Once again, ensure that everything is "square".
4. Attaching the rudder (Figs. 5 & 6):
First glue the in-fi ll piece 9 in the opening in the tail end
of the fuselage 1. The hinges for the rudder 4 can now be
glued in the prepared slots.
àTip: to ensure that the adhesive actually enters the hinge
slots without spilling out, compress the tip of the Zacki bottle
slightly using pointed-nose or fl at-nose pliers, so that the
exit opening is oval.
Take care to allow no more than a little adhesive to be
squeezed out of the hinge slots, and maintain a gap about 1
mm wide between rudder and fi n (rear edge of the fuselage).
It is important that the rudder swivels freely and easily from
one extreme to the other.
5. Installing the servos (Figs. 07 - 09):
First remove the battery hatch 7 from the fuselage 1.
Apply a little Zacki to the base of the horn 24 and glue it
in the moulded-in recess in the left-hand aileron. Remove
the aileron servo from its well, and set it to centre (neutral)
from the transmitter. Fit the output lever on the servo output
shaft, and tighten the retaining screw fi rmly. The servo can
now be glued in the appropriate opening in the fuselage by
applying a little Zacki at each mounting lug.
Repeat the procedure with the rudder and elevator servos.
Route all the servo leads through to the front fuselage
compartment.
6. Installing the wing and tailplane braces (Figs. 10 - 12):
Glue the supports 5 and 6 to the underside of the wing at the
marked points, then glue the braces 16 (front, approx. 1.3
x 300 mm) and 17 (rear, approx. 1.3 x 305 mm) in place as
shown. It is important that the braces are not under tension
when fi tted, as this could introduce warps into the wing.
Check that the wing is still at right-angles to the fuselage
when viewed from the nose and tail. Fix the braces to the
wing and fuselage, applying a small drop of Zacki to the
transitions between the plastic and CFRP parts.
Use the same general procedure to install the tailplane
braces 15 (approx. 1.5 x 130 mm).
7. Installing the control surface linkages (Figs. 13 - 22):
AILERONS:
Locate the clevises attached to the pushrods 18 (approx.
1.3 x 130), connect them to the outer holes in the aileron
servo output lever, then slide the rubber sleeves over them
to prevent them coming adrift accidentally. Connect the
pushrod clevises to the outer holes in the aileron horns, and
secure them in the same way with small pieces of rubber
sleeve. Switch the radio control system on, and set the
aileron servo to neutral. Now slide the clevises in or out to
adjust the length of the pushrods, so that both ailerons are
also at the neutral (centre) position; tighten the clamping
screws fi rmly when you are satisfi ed. Check that the aileron
linkage works correctly, and that travels of around 95 mm
up and 75 mm down are available, as required for 3D fl ying.
If necessary, cut away a little foam from the fuselage to
prevent the pushrods fouling it at the extremes of travel.
ELEVATOR:
Thread the elevator pushrod 19 (approx. 1.3 x 510 mm)
through the black plastic guides on the left-hand side of the
fuselage, and connect the pushrod to the outer hole of the
elevator horn. Connect the pushrod to the servo output arm
using a hole 15 mm from the servo's central axis. Secure
the pushrod and the clevises using the method described
for the ailerons.
