ASSEMBLE THE MODEL Step 1: Screw a control horn to each elevon using 2 PK screws in each horn only. Step 2: Center the elevon servos using either your radio or a servo tester and connect the pushrod as shown.
Step 3: Slide the carbon wing tube through the fuselage. Step 4: Apply some medium or slow setting CA glue to one wing root on the fuselage. Slide one wing panel onto the wing tube, ensure the wing tube stays central in the fuselage and hold tightly in place whilst the glue sets.
Step 5: Repeat the process for the other wing. Step 6: Connect the servo leads to the extension cable and tuck away the excess lead in the servo well. It is a good idea then to cover the lead with a piece of white self adhesive tape.
Step 7: Using a medium or slow setting CA glue, glue into place the plastic fuselage underpan. Step 8: Glue into place the servo covers using a medium CA glue.
Step 9: Apply medium CA glue to the slot for one of the vertical stabilizers. Step 10: Push the vertical stabilizer into the slot and hold until the glue sets. Please ensure it stays vertical as the glue sets.
Step 11: Repeat this process for the second vertical stabilizer. Step 12: Fit the propeller and hub to the motor shaft. Please make sure the propeller is facing the correct way, the leading edge of the propeller should be facing forwards.
Step 13: Using a medium CA glue the canopy to the battery hatch cover Step 14: Your RADJET 800 construction is now complete, you just need to add your receiver and battery and set up your radio.
RADJET 800 SET-UP: Connect one servo to the aileron output of your receiver and one servo to the elevator output, connect the ESC servo lead to the motor output. Now activate the ELEVON mixer on your transmitter. Before powering up your receiver with the flight battery you need to set the ESC. Before you do the next step it is best to remove the propeller from the motor. Switch on the transmitter with the throttle stick in the fully closed position and the throttle trim also fully down.
C of G.: For initial flights please set the center of gravity as shown at 383mm from the nose. Once again this is the recommendation for initial flights and can be adjusted as you feel necessary once you have flown it a few times. A further forward C of G gives smoother flying and a more rearward C of G makes for a more lively flight envelope so proceed with caution moving the C of G back from the point shown.
