1. Before you start building
Check the contents of your kit. You will find Figs. 1, 2 + 3 and
the Parts List helpful here.
2. Cutting the snake outer sleeves
Use a sharp balsa knife to cut the snake outer sleeves 53 (3
mm Ø) to the lengths shown in Fig.3. The snake inner tubes
52 (2 mm Ø) are supplied ready to install.
3. Reinforcing the motor pod
Glue the 31 mm length of snake outer sleeve inside the motor
pod using cyano.
Fig. 4
4. Installing the tailplane lock
Glue the tailplane clip 44, the upper tailplane sleeve 45 and
the tailplane frame 46 in the right-hand fuselage shell 4: spray
activator thinly on the plastic parts, and allow a few seconds
for the fluid to air-dry.
CAUTION! Take care not to glue together the two plastic parts
(tailplane clip 44 and upper tailplane sleeve 45)!
Fig. 5
5. Inserting the tailplane slider
Allow the glue to set hard, then insert the tailplane slider 48 to
ensure that the parts are accurately aligned. This part must
not be glued in place!
Fig. 6
6. Reinforcing the bottom of the fuselage
Cut the outer snake sleeve to a length of 635 mm, then glue it
in the channel in the bottom of the right-hand fuselage shell 4.
Temporarily fit the tailplane slider 48 to position this part
accurately, but take care not to glue the parts together.
Fig. 7
7. Reinforcing the fuselage nose
Cut the sleeves to a length of 247 mm, and glue them in the
upper part of the two fuselage shells 3 + 4. Cut the sleeve to a
length of 290 mm and glue it in the underside of the right-hand
fuselage shell 4.
Figs. 8 + 9
8. Preparing the cable holders (optional: required for ailerons)
Glue the plug end of the 30 cm extension lead 8 5031 to the
cable holder 29, flush with the edge. Push the cable under the
lug on the underside.
Fig. 10
9. Installing the cable holders
First spray activator on the joint surfaces of the cable holders
29. Allow the fluid to air-dry, then glue the parts in the
appropriate recesses in both fuselage shells.
Fig. 11
10. Gluing the latch catches in place
Glue the latch catches 27 in both fuselage shells. Once again,
spray activator onto the plastic part, and allow it to air-dry.

11. Installing the servo mounts
Glue both servo frames 43 in the appropriate openings using
cyano. Ensure that no glue gets onto the mount lugs, as this
could prevent them holding the servos securely.
Fig. 13
12. Preparing the servos
Before installing the servos, set all of them to neutral (centre)
from the transmitter: this is accomplished by connecting the
servo to a receiver, switching the system on, and centring the
stick at the transmitter; check that the transmitter trims are
also at neutral. Locate the "double-ended" servo output levers
with three holes per side, and fit them on the servo output
shafts at right-angles to the long side of the servo cases. If you
find that the output arm is not accurately at right-angles to the
case when the servo is at neutral, rotate the lever through 180°
and try again; the output shaft features an odd number of
splines, and reversing the output device will get you "closer to
the target".
Install the elevator and rudder servos as a mirror-image pair;
the same applies to the aileron servos, if you intend to install
them.
Avoid moving the servo output levers by hand, as this can easily
ruin the gears!
13. Installing the servos in the fuselage
Fit the servos in the servo mounts 43, with the output arms
facing down, and the output shafts towards the nose. Ensure
that the servo mounting lugs engage fully under the "clips" of
the servo mounts 43.

14. Joining the fuselage shells
Spray the joint surfaces of one fuselage shell with cyano
activator, apply medium-viscosity cyano to the joint surfaces of
the other shell, then briskly join the two shells. Take care to
align the parts accurately.

15. Installing the snakes
Slip the pre-formed steel pushrods 51 for the elevator and
rudder into the inner tubes 52 (550 mm), and fit these into the
