3. Clean the inside of the canopy with soap and water
and dry thoroughly. Glue the canopy to the fuselage with
canopy glue such as Pacer Technology’s PT56 Canopy Glue
[PAAR3300].
Apply the Decals
The box photographs show the location of the decals on the
airplane. Refer to the box for the exact placement of the decals.
The following tips may be useful for applying them.
❏
1. Use scissors or a sharp hobby knife to cut the decals
from the sheet.
❏
2. Be certain the model is clean and free from oily fi ngerprints
and dust. Prepare a dishpan or small bucket with a mixture
of liquid dish soap and warm water—about one teaspoon of
soap per gallon of water. Submerse the decal in the soap and
water and peel off the paper backing. Note: Even though the
decals have a “sticky-back” and are not the water transfer type,
submersing them in soap & water allows accurate positioning
and reduces air bubbles underneath.
❏
3. Position decals on the model. Holding the decal down,
use a paper towel to wipe most of the water away.
❏
4. Use a piece of soft balsa or something similar to squeegee
remaining water from under the decal. Apply the rest of the
decals the same way.

Check the Control Directions
❏
1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver and center the trims.
If necessary, remove the servo arms from the servos and
reposition them so they are centered. Reinstall the screws
that hold on the servo arms.
❏
2. With the transmitter and receiver still on, check all the
control surfaces to see if they are centered. If necessary, loosen
the screw in the quick connector and center the control surfaces.

❏
3. Make certain that the control surfaces respond in the
correct direction as shown in the diagram. If any of the controls
respond in the wrong direction, use the servo reversing in the
transmitter to reverse the servos connected to those controls.
Be certain the control surfaces have remained centered. Adjust
if necessary.
Set the Control Throws
To ensure a successful fi rst fl ight, set up your Cosmic Wind
EP according to the control throws specifi ed in this manual.
The throws have been determined through actual fl ight
testing and accurate record-keeping, allowing the model
to perform in the manner in which it was intended.
❏
1. Use a box or something similar to prop up the bottom of
the fuselage so the horizontal stabilizer and wing will be level.
❏
2. Measure the high rate elevator throw fi rst. Hold a ruler
vertically on your workbench against the widest part (front to
back) of the trailing edge of the elevator. Note the measurement
on the ruler.
❏
3. Move the elevator up with your transmitter and move the
ruler forward so it will remain contacting the trailing edge. The
