Page 2 www.aeroplusrc.com service@aeroplusrc.com Unpacking Carefully unpack the model making sure that if you use a sharp knife to open bags, not to cut any covering on the model. Inspect each item to make sure no transit damage has happened. If you are not happy with any part or are unsure please contact the Dealer that you purchased from. Covering Due to the model spending time in different climates zones from the factory on its way to you, some of the covering may have wrinkles. We highly recommend that you take time to re‐seal all covering edges with an iron and to use a heat gun to remove any wrinkles and re‐tighten the covering. It is best to do this now while the plane is not assembled, remember to not let any heat get near any parts like the canopy or cowl as this may cause damage. Note: Do not let any heat get near parts like the canopy or cowl as this may cause damage. Assembly Tips We also recommend that you go over all the accessible joints with cyano glue. Wick glue into areas of high stress around the U/C plate and motor box. Use a thread locker on all metal‐to‐metal joints. Even if you are using electric with low vibration levels it will make sure that things do not drop off your airplane!

Page 3: Landing Gear Assembly
www.aeroplusrc.com service@aeroplusrc.com Landing Gear Assembly  To help prevent the fuselage from being damaged while the model is being assembled we Note ‐ Before beginning assembly be sure to determine your left and right wheels pants.  First, glue the thin wood wheel spacer to the inside of the wheel pant on what will be the outer side of the pant. Use the bolt to help centre the spacer  Next, insert the bolt from what will be the outside of the wheel pant; put one thicker wood spacer on to the axle bolt, followed by the wheel and one more wood spacer.  Install a lock washer onto the axle‐bolt, followed by a washer. Note‐ you must place the washer now as it will be impossible to place once the axle is tightened. AeroPlus RC Copyright 2013 © All Rights Reserved www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
Page 4 www.aeroplusrc.com service@aeroplusrc.com  Tighten down the bolt holding the locknut. Note – Do not over tighten. This will prevent the wheel from turning.  Insert the protruding bolts through the landing gear hole.  Tighten up using a washer and lock nut.  Repeat for other side. Horizontal Stab  First, remove the covering where the elevator horns fit into the stab, use either a soldering iron or a sharp hobby knife.  Test fit the horns before gluing; some adjustment may be needed.  The area of the horns that goes inside the elevator needs to be roughed up with sandpaper before gluing. This will result in a better glue joint. AeroPlus RC Copyright 2013 © All Rights Reserved www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
Page 5 www.aeroplusrc.com service@aeroplusrc.com  Glue the horns in place using epoxy glue or CA. Put a bolt through the ball joint hole to make sure that the horns stay in alignment while drying.  Before fitting the elevator servo fix an extension lead so that the wire can be routed through the the fuselage. Be sure to secure the coupling.  Remove the covering for the elevator servo  Fit the Elevator Servo and, using a fine drill, drill holes for the servo screws. Remove the servo and drop thin C.A. into all 4 holes after first threading the servo.. AeroPlus RC Copyright 2013 © All Rights Reserved www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
Page 6 www.aeroplusrc.com service@aeroplusrc.com  Re‐fit the elevator servo and secure it in with servo screws after the. Glue fully dries.  Centre the servo using your TX, and fit a servo arm. Use either an aftermarket arm or attach the arms that were supplied to a servo head. Screw ball joints onto the pushrod (use pliers to hold pushrod) and bolt in place with supplied bolts. Centre of servo should align with elevator flat to the stab. Rudder  Remove the covering where the rudder horns push through with either a knife or soldering iron.

Page 7 www.aeroplusrc.com service@aeroplusrc.com  Test fit the rudder horns  Sand the area on the horn that fits inside the rudder so the glue bonds better  Insert the easy removal pin into the pin hinges.  Glue the rudder horns through the rudder with epoxy; wipe off excess glue while it is wet. Use the ball joint and bolt while gluing to maintain alignment. While still movable, measure that the same amount pushes out each side. Care needs to be taken here, otherwise your rudder geometry will be incorrect. AeroPlus RC Copyright 2013 © All Rights Reserved www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
Page 8 www.aeroplusrc.com service@aeroplusrc.com  Assemble the rudder servo control arm as below, drill holes for screws and use cyno to stop the nuts from coming loose.  Fit the rudder servo and drill holes using a fine drill for the servo screws, drop thin cyno into the holes to strengthen the wood.  Using servo screws fix the servo in place, note the spline is towards the front of the plane  The closed loop wires are assembled in the plane; attach the rear ball joints to the rudder. Do this to both sides. AeroPlus RC Copyright 2013 © All Rights Reserved www.modellmarkt24.ch www.modellmarkt24.ch...
