The photo below details the contents of the kit and labels.
Horizontal Tail Installation 1. Install the wing I. Slide the wing tube into the fuselage (fig1). II. Install the left and right wing over the wing tube and into the wing slot of the fuselage . III. Secure the left and right wings to the fuselage using the 4 screws included (fig2). fig1 HKM3.
2. With the bottom of the fuselage facing up, carefully apply CA to the base and side of the rear fuselage slot. Install the stabilizer into place. Ensure the control horn is face up as shown (fig4). Note: Ensure the stabilizer horizontal axis is parallel to the wing as shown (fig3). Adjust any misalignment before the glue dries thoroughly.
3. Install the vertical tail into place with glue. Notce: the vertical tail will angle towards the outboard of the plane as picture shows. fig5 fig6 4. Apply the nose cone to the front fuselage as diagram shows. Ensure the nose cone is on the correct side (fig7). Required Adhesives: Medium CA fig7 5. Install main landing gear with the included screws (fig8). KA2.
6.Install the clevis. Refer to the Clevis Installation on page 12.

Get your model ready to fly Important ESC and model information 1. The ESC included with the model has a safe start. If the motor battery is connected to the ESC and the throttle stick is not in the low throttle or off position, the motor will not start until the throttle stick is moved to the low throttle or off position. Once the throttle stick is moved to the low throttle or off position, the motor will emit a series of beeps.
Check the control throws The suggested control throw setting for FMS MODEL are as follows (dual rate setting): 14 12 10 8 Tips: On first flight, fly the model in low rate. The first time you use high rates, be sure to fly at low to medium speeds. High rate, as listed, is only for EXTREME maneuvering.
Clevis Installation a. Pull the tube from the clevis to the linkage. b. Carefully spread the clevis, then insert the clevis pin into the desired hole in the control horn. c. Move the tube to hold the clevis on the control horn. a. d. b. e. c. f. Control Horn and Servo Arm Settings The table shows the factory settings for the control horns and servo arms. Fly the aircraft at the factory settings before making changes.
Check the C.G. (Center of Gravity) When balancing your model, adjust the motor battery as necessary so the model is level or slightly nose down. This is the correct balance point for your model. After the first flights, the CG position can be adjusted for your personal preference. 1. The recommended Center of Gravity (CG) location for your model is (93-98mm) forward from the leading edge of the main wing (as shown) with the battery pack installed. Mark the location of the CG on top of the wing. 2.
Before flying the model Find a suitable flying site Find a flying site clear of buildings, trees, power lines and other obstructions. Until you know how much area will be required and have mastered flying your plane in confined spaces, choose a site which is at least the size of two to three football fields - a flying field specifically for R/C planes is best. Never fly near people especially children, who can wander unpredictably.
Flying course Take off While applying power, slowly steer to keep the model straight. The model should accelerate quickly. As the model gains flight speed you will want to climb at a steady and even rate. F-35 will climb out at a nice angle of attack (AOA). Flying Always choose a wide-open space for flying your plane. It is ideal for you to fly at a sanctioned flying field. If you are not flying at an approved site always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires and buildings.
