steering arm screw. Install the wheel and wheel collars onto
the axle using two 3x5mm machine screws and thread locking
compound. Loosely thread a 3x8mm machine screw with
thread locking compound into the steering arm. Install a screw-
lock pushrod connector into the middle hole in the steering
arm. Reinstall the nose gear wire into the nose gear bearing
blocks and steering arm. Tighten the screw in the steering arm
against the fl at spot you made on the nose gear wire.
6. Slide the 16-1/4" [413mm] unthreaded pushrod
through the screw-lock pushrod connector on the steering
arm, through the steering outer pushrod tube, and through
the screw-lock pushrod connector on the rudder servo,
positioning the end of the pushrod 1/4" [6mm] beyond the
screw-lock connector on the servo arm. Center the rudder
servo and the nose wheel. Tighten the screws in the screw-
lock pushrod connectors and cut off the excess pushrod 1/4"
[6mm] beyond the steering arm pushrod connector.
GLOW ENGINE INSTALLATION
The Tiger 2 ARF is designed to be fl own with a .40 –.55
[6.5 – 9cc] two-stroke glow engine, .70 [11.5cc] four-stroke
glow engine, or a brushless out-runner motor. If you plan to
install a brushless motor, skip this section as it only contains
information relevant to installing a glow engine.
1. The fuel tank can be assembled as a two line system
consisting of a vent (pressure) line to the muffl er and a
carb line. Filling and emptying of the tank would need to be
done through the carb line, or an optional fuel fi ll valve (not
included). The tank can also be assembled as a three line
system having a vent line, carb line, and fi ll line. If installing
a fi ll line, puncture the top of the stopper above the sealed
off fuel tube hole. The fi ll and carb lines should extend out
1/2" [13mm] beyond the stopper and the vent line should be
bent upwards. With the tubes installed in the stopper, fi t the
stopper plates loosely in place with the 3 x 20mm phillips
screw to hold the assembly together.

2. Fit the stopper assembly into the tank with the vent
line pointing toward the top of the tank, but not touching.
The fuel tubing and clunks (fuel pickup) on the carb and fi ll
lines should almost reach the back of the tank but not touch.
The clunks must be able to move freely inside the tank when
assembled. Adjust the length of the fuel tubing accordingly.
When satisfi ed, remove the stopper from the tank. It will need
to be reinstalled after the tank is fi t into the fuselage.
