7. Remove the cowl and, with a moto tool, slow-
ly remove the fiberglass INSIDE the cutout
outline. Work slowly and carefully, until the
cowl matches the clear plastic piece.
Remember, if the fiberglass is damaged dur-
ing this process, it can be repaired only with
epoxy glue.
NOTE:You may wish to make a cutout in the front of
the cowl, at the point where the engine prop washer
sticks out, that is large enough to allow the engine to
vibrate without touching the cowl.
8. Remount the engine and remove any fiber-
glass on the cowl that interferes with the
engine.Go slow and remove only a little fiber-
glass at a time.
9. Place the cowl on to the fuselage and install
the prop.
Keeping the cowl 1/16” back from the rear of
the prop, hold the cowl onto the fuselage till
the stripes on the sides of the fuselage are
even.
Tape the cowl in place so that it can not move.
RECEIVER, BATTERY & SWITCH
Plug all the servo wires into the receiver
and center your servo linkages. Find a location
on the side of the fuselage for mounting your
radio switch. We placed our receiver in front of
the rudder servo and our battery in front of the
throttle servo behind the tank. The location of
these items will vary with each planes set up.
10. From the line that you made on the fuselage,
measure foreword on the top stripe 2”.make a
pencil mark there.
Use the same procedures for the bottom
screw hole mark.
11. Measure and mark the other side of the cowl
just like you did above
Making sure that the cowl is still straight and
has a 1/16” gap between the spinner, drill a
1/16” hole on each of the marks.
Pull the cowl away from the fuselage sides
and redrill the cowl holes with a 3/32” drill.
Screw the cowl onto the fuselage using a
2mm x 5mm sheet metal screw.
WINDSHIELD AND SIDE WINDOWS
1. Cut apart the side windows.
Test fit the windows into the fuselage open-
ings till the fit flush with the fuselage sides.
2. Once satisfied with the fit glue them in place
using medium CA glue.
